[QUOTE="vertigo, post: 784628, member: 70928"] Not really interested in a beta security product. If indeed they've [I]finally[/I] added quarantine in the beta, then that's great, but it doesn't do anything for right now, and it only took them 3+ years. Your second paragraph makes no sense. I don't know why you're even mentioning the corporate versions. First of all, corporate versions are priced higher largely because they're a totally different product with different support and different customers. Second, pricing a product out of the range of consumer's hands so consumers can't use the products so they can't "complain" (I see it more as if they want me to pay for a product, the product should have what I need/want) makes absolutely no sense. And I realize that [I]"corporate/enterprise[/I] offerings" are designed to limit local control, but this isn't a corporate/enterprise product, it's a [I]home[/I] product. So I would expect to have the ability to adjust its settings without requiring internet access and having to log in to an online account. I think having that ability is great actually, but it shouldn't be the [I]only[/I] way to manage it. And you may simply see it as them doing it differently, and may think it's senseless, but many people don't appreciate tactics like that. If it doesn't affect you, that's fine; it's not there for you then. I put it there for people who [I]are[/I] bothered by that sort of thing, as well as for the Sophos reps in this thread so they might reconsider how they're handling it. [/QUOTE]
