Head IT at NorthSYS Integrators
Discontinuation of Hardware and limited firewalling capabilities
Overall, I would rate the solution a four out of ten. For UTM, I will not suggest Seqrite. But for EPS and antivirus, it is good. Cost-wise also and some features. The features wise also, it is good. And support is also good. We can get support on WhatsApp. So support-wise, it is also good.

Global IT Manager at Express KItchen
Has transitioned fully to SD-WAN and centralized management simplifies appliance handling
As for areas where Sophos Cyberoam UTM can be improved, it's hard to say; I have not at the moment seen anything that I could not get a solution for, but if there's anything, I'll make sure to raise that with the Sophos team. Regarding the documentation, I find that it is still lacking, although the YouTube videos, user training, and knowledge forum are now better than they were before. Sophos Cyberoam UTM should move in the direction of AI capabilities, as the world is moving toward AI. Sophos Cyberoam UTM is not promoted enough. I see FortiGates organizing student competitions and Cisco doing CCNA classes, so Sophos should follow that route as well.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"It has an MDM solution."
"I'm more inclined towards the conventional firewall. So for me, I'm more geared towards the standard firewall type functionalities as well as the web application firewall because that seems to work fine."
"All these features are valuable to us because we can block malicious and unproductive application and sites to improve productivity and security in our network, audit users and machines and protect us against exploitation."
"We are using this product to protect our networks, by blocking some websites and applications such as YouTube or WhatsApp."
"The initial setup was straightforward."
"The tool's robust features allow for the customization of policies, objects, and firewall settings."
"The main features I have found best are the load balancer and ease of use."
"BW management and BW quota with limitation policy is easily deployed."
"The solution has good load balancers."
 

Cons

"This solution is not accurate. Sometimes, the switches got hung. So sometimes, whatever policies we have deployed were not working properly."
"There needs to be more documentation that users can access to help them understand the solution or troubleshoot as necessary."
"The documentation is not straightforward."
"It should have better VPN protection. Some of the VPN applications are not blocked by this firewall. Some VPNs are able to get through this firewall, which is why I am planning to replace this firewall with a good one in the near future."
"Very early CR15 unit prone to freeze."
"Sometimes, users are timed out intermittently."
"It isn't missing anything."
"Once in a while, an unwanted email will slip in. If an email slips in, I get a little bit worried."
"The product strategy of the manufacturer is strange. I don't understand what they are doing in that regard."
