Which AV solution? Sophos or Webroot
I’m trying to compare the two solutions, between Webroot anywhere secure with DNS protection or Sophos interecptX advanced with EDR.
I do have a Sophos Firewall, but I’ve been using Webroot for now and just tested InterceptX and I have to decide which route to take.
Does anyone have any recommendations?

I will go with a Anti-malware (e.g. Malwarebyte) and level it up with a EDR solution (e.g. Carbon black). What is lacking is then a Host intrusion prevention (HIPS) which Symantec Endpoint is one option.
Coming back Webroot is more of the HIPS approach as it acts also as a gatekeeper to the traffic going out and coming in. It secures the connection and remote access via wired or wirelessly. For Sophos, it is more a Anti-malware with good ransomware prevention capability and I am not aware of the EDR aspect but if it has, the endpoint security will definitely a value add.
If I will to choose Sophos protecting the endpoint will be ore assuring with EDR. But when comes to traffic analysis and secure connection, Webroot may have an edge.
I did not delve deep as I will think you can ask the tech sales to do that for you with those req.
