Sophos pricing: the quick answer

Quick answerHigh· Verified July 8, 2026

Sophos posts no price on its own site as of July 8, 2026, but its AWS Marketplace listing gives a verbatim per-endpoint annual rate card with no free tier. For workstations, EDR is $110.00 per endpoint for 12 months, XDR $136.60, and fully managed MDR $239.64. Server endpoints cost more: EDR $222.00, XDR $239.73, and MDR $390.72 per year. A server seat runs roughly double a workstation seat, so a mixed fleet will not scale off the workstation number alone.

Sophos Hidden Costs & Pitfalls

What sits on top of the plan fee

Sophos hides its rate behind a quote on its own site, but the AWS Marketplace listing spells out the annual per-endpoint numbers. Two things move the total: whether a device is a workstation or a server, and whether you buy the managed service.

Server endpoints
A server seat costs about twice a workstation seat at the same tier. EDR is $110.00 per workstation versus $222.00 per server, and XDR is $136.60 versus $239.73. A shop with 40 workstations and 10 servers on EDR pays $4,400 plus $2,220 a year, so the ten servers add more than half again on top of the forty desktops. Count your servers before you price the fleet.
$222.00/server/yr (EDR)
Managed Detection and Response
MDR is the top tier and the price reflects the 24/7 analyst team behind it: $239.64 per workstation per year against $110.00 for self-run EDR, more than double. On servers it climbs to $390.72. Ten managed servers run $3,907.20 a year, so treat MDR as buying a SOC by the seat rather than a feature bump.
$239.64/user/yr, $390.72/server/yr
Volume beyond the rate card
The marketplace numbers are list. Larger or custom deployments route through a Private Offer, so a 500-seat estate should not assume the published per-endpoint figure holds. Get the Private Offer quote before you budget past a few hundred devices.

Sophos Cost Analysis

Sophos pricing, read against its live plans and category

Positioning

$0.42/moentry price
93% below the category median
low $0.42median $5.83 · n=5high $7.99

Sophos keeps its own site quote-only, but the AWS Marketplace listing exposes the real per-endpoint annual rates. Workstation EDR is $110.00/yr, XDR $136.60/yr, and fully managed MDR $239.64/yr; the same three tiers on servers run $222.00, $239.73, and $390.72. Intercept X Advanced covers deep-learning malware detection and anti-ransomware, the XDR tier adds the data lake and cross-product telemetry, and MDR hands the whole thing to a 24/7 team. What you actually pay turns on your server count and whether you want humans in the loop, not on a single headline rate.

Cost drivers

  • 1Server endpoints cost roughly 2x the workstation rate at every tier, so a server-heavy fleet blows past a per-desktop estimate.
  • 2MDR is the premium line at about $240/user and $391/server per year, which is the price of the managed service, not an add-on.
  • 3Anything larger or custom goes through a Private Offer, so the marketplace card stops being a reliable quote past a few hundred seats.

Watch-outs

Renewal quotes have landed higher than a straight switch to another vendor, and the sales path has pushed legacy customers toward forced hardware and software upgrades.

Strengths

Sophos Central runs endpoint, server, and firewall from one console.

  • Sophos Central gives a single console for endpoint, server, and firewall
  • Synchronized Security links endpoints and firewalls for automated response
  • Strong MSP focus with multi-tenant management and flexible billing

Editor’s take

Intercept X with XDR is the pick if you have a SOC and want to run detection yourself at $136.60 per workstation per year. Teams without in-house response should price MDR at $239.64, since the whole point is renting the analysts. Watch the server multiplier, and get a Private Offer once your fleet crosses a few hundred devices. Buyers tired of climbing renewals should put it next to SentinelOne.
