Active Remediation: Beyond Detection
While both Vijilan and Sophos MDR offer 24/7 monitoring, Vijilan sets itself apart with its commitment to not just detect but actively remediate threats. This ensures that threats are not just identified but are neutralized, reducing the potential impact on MSP clients.
- Vijilan provides hands-on threat neutralization around the clock.
- Sophos MDR focuses on detection and alerting, with limited remediation capabilities.
A True Partner-Centric Approach
Vijilan supports MSPs with a model designed to amplify their success, selling exclusively through MSP partners without competing interests. In contrast, Sophos sells both directly and through MSPs, which can potentially place MSPs in competition with their own supplier.
- Vijilan's exclusive MSP focus fosters stronger partnerships.
- Sophos' mixed sales model could create conflicts of interest.
Integration and Flexibility
Flexibility in cybersecurity is crucial for MSPs. Vijilan's Managed XDR integrates seamlessly with existing security tools, offering a versatile approach that enhances rather than replaces your current setup. Sophos MDR, while effective within its ecosystem, may limit MSPs that utilize a diverse set of tools.
- Vijilan enhances your current security infrastructure.
- Sophos MDR offers optimal results within its own ecosystem, limiting multi-vendor environments.
Pricing and Contract Flexibility
Understanding the dynamic nature of MSPs, Vijilan provides transparent, flexible pricing without long-term contracts. This approach contrasts with Sophos MDR's per-endpoint pricing model, which may not offer the same level of flexibility and transparency desired by MSPs.
- Vijilan offers transparent partner pricing with no long-term contracts.
- Sophos MDR's pricing is per-endpoint and bundled with Sophos products.
