Sophos EPP Suite Reviews

I deploy the solution on multiple EPP sites and firewalls. 

Sophos EPP Suite's best feature is that the endpoints and firewalls remain synced. The aforementioned synchronization casts a multi-layer security. When I use a firewall or Kaspersky, this synchronization is unavailable. Sophos EPP Suite has a useful expert prevention feature that prevents ransomware attacks. The solution also helps me review multiple technical reports. 

Sophos EPP Suite focuses completely on security and lacks managerial features or a management console. Competitors like Kaspersky have management control over endpoints. With Sophos EPP Suite, inventory cannot be checked, and external applications cannot be installed. 

In the future version, a virtual patching feature can be included. 

I have been using Sophos EPP Suite for five years. 

I am satisfied with the stability of the solution. 

Sophos EPP Suite is a competitive and affordable solution. The product is adaptable in economically weak countries, too. 

The solution's threat response feature is very productive. You not only get a response but also a root cause analysis. In my five years of experience with the product, I have never witnessed a compromised system with Sophos EPP Suite. In comparison, Kaspersky has been less successful in mitigating attacks. 

When using the suite's Sophos MDR for root protection and threat response, if a solution doesn't respond properly due to missing configuration, the solution can recommend the best configuration for a sharp response on time as per the product's capability.  

I would definitely recommend Sophos EPP Suite to others. The product has AI-driven and deep-security features. I would rate the solution a nine out of ten. 

We primarily use the solution for endpoint protection. We use it as an antivirus and for web filtering.

There isn't an easy way to describe how it's helped our company. It's just a good source of protection.

The anti-malware and web filtering are the solutions most valuable aspects.

The solution has the capability to detect and prevent attacks.

The solution isn't quite accurate enough. It provides a lot of false positives.

For example, if you log onto the portal, you'll be able to see the endpoints. You'll see the health status, but when you click on one, you'll find everything right there, even though it might not be clear from the health status overview. The accuracy of the status needs to be better represented.

I've been using the solution for several years.

The stability is pretty good. the only complaint is the operation of the solution.

The solution is only capable of being used on a Linus or Mac. It's limiting.

We don't plan to increase usage at this time. We already use 80% of its capabilities and we don't plan to expand beyond that.

I'd rate the technical support as average. It's not outstanding, however, it's also not the worst we've dealt with.

I'm not sure if another solution was used previously. By the time I was hired, the company was already using Sophos.

The initial setup is pretty straightforward. It's a typical setup. It's just a regular implied agent.

I don't have any information about the cost or how much we pay. I'm not involved in the finance aspect of managing the solution.

Although I don't know the version number, I'm using the most up to date one.

I'd advise organizations considering implementing the solution to first consider their requirements. They need to know what they are looking for. There are a lot of vendors out there that offer many of the same features. However, if there's just one critical feature that's necessary, you need to be sure it will work correctly for your company.

You also need to make sure you are choosing something that is compatible with other solutions that intersect. We've had experiences where we thought that a certain piece of software would work with Sophos and we realized that it didn't.

I'd rate the solution seven out of ten.

We primarily use the solution on our endpoints for end-user security. We are planning to move to their new product, the XG.

The central management of the anti-virus features for our end user is a very valuable aspect of the solutions. 

We find it very good as a product. 

In the future, we're looking forward to having a new synchronization firewall on the endpoint.

The management console need improvement. 

I'd address the deployment side. If we could upgrade the deployment side to hand it off to the end-user, it would make it easier, as our campuses are far apart.

We'd appreciate if the solution could offer us assistance with a later deployment.

I've been using the solution for three or four years.

The stability is good. Everything is working fine at the moment.

The scalability is good. Our subscriptions are around 1500, and we have 600 to 700 users deployed. We don't plan to expand on-premises usage and will be moving to the cloud.

I was in touch with technical support last week, with the Phillippine country manager in Venado. So far, their assistance has been very helpful.

We previously used Trend Micro. We replaced it with Sophos. Trend Micro just didn't work for us. There were issues with the management file.

From our initial reporting, the system wasn't difficult to install. We didn't face any complexity or have any problems.

We need about four people for maintenance and deployment because we have different campuses.

We're looking forward to moving to the cloud and replacing our existing firewall when we move to Sophos XG.

I'd rate the solution eight out of ten.

We have been working with Sophos products for the last seven to eight years, providing a complete stack to customers. We are selling everything except cloud security, including hardware, software security, mobile security, endpoint security, and gateway security appliances.

We are promoting Sophos products, and the feedback is always positive. The central management console means everything is accessible in one central location, so users do not need to visit multiple websites or consoles to check logs and events.

The central management console is valuable, as it consolidates everything into one place, allowing users to access logs and events without visiting multiple websites or consoles.

Pricing is a consideration for us; for the Indian market, it is slightly expensive.

We have been working with Sophos for the last seven to eight years.

For the Indian market, we feel it is slightly expensive.

I'd rate the solution nine out of ten.

We sell all Sophos products. We are a distributor. So, I only see the business from the partner's perspective.

We sell the entire EPP product range of Sophos.

It's a pretty good product. It's on level with other products in the market.

The integration within Sophos is pretty good. It is acceptable if you talk about integration with other SIEMs or other technologies, but it is EPP.

It's not a very specialized product for the Endpoint. It's interesting if you are a customer, you buy the next-generation firewall, you buy everything from Sophos, and you have a completely integrated view. And then you don't care about the fact that probably there is a specialized product that can do something more.

Sophos needs to have better CNA and better software solutions.

I would also like to see more integration with different platforms. 

I would rate the stability a six out of ten. 

Our customers are mainly medium-sized companies. There is also a mix of some small companies, as we are in Italy and have very few large companies.

The customer service and support are pretty good. Even they're not an Italian company, they now have a very large support for the Italian company. 

Normally, the business partner that chooses to sell it is because they use Sophos, they know Sophos, and it's pretty accessible in terms of the features that the product has. 

Honestly, Sophos is not our gold mine, it's a product just like another.

If I were to recommend any endpoint, it would be Cylance.

From my perspective, it is not the most expensive, it is aligned with the market.

It's not a very specialized product for the Endpoint. It's interesting if you are a customer, you buy the next-generation firewall, you buy everything from Sophos, and you have a completely integrated view. And then you don't care about the fact that probably there is a specialized product that can do something more.

Overall, I would rate it a seven out of ten. It is an acceptable product but probably not the best you can buy in terms of endpoints. It could be very interesting if you have a complete vision of Sophos products, just like Fortinet.

It is acceptable. You have to consider you want to be a general cybersecurity company. 

So, for specific products, you can find someone who could be more aggressive in terms of being aligned to the latest kind of attack or something like that. 

If you consider the generalist vendor in cybersecurity, just like Fortinet, just like Sophos, they are pretty good.

We use the solution in situations where clients need broad security. We use it as a firewall, HA, and as a VPN.

The solution integrates well with the Sophos Firewall. We have the advantage of better security and blocking capabilities. It can be locked with a firewall even if there's no antivirus. If something is not running, it can still block and quarantine content. 

There are a lot of great features.

There is very effective protection.

We can integrate it with other apps. We integrate it ourselves. The integration process is very easy.

The antivirus and endpoint security are good. It enhances protection.

It is not a heavy product. It's very light on the endpoints. 

The solution is stable. 

Technical support is good. 

The setup is easy.

It offers good pricing. 

There could be enhancements made to the DLP. It should have similar features that CrowdStrike or SentinelOne. They can protect the endpoint more effectively. Both of these solutions are better than Sophos; however, in our region, the pricing of Sophos is better. 

I've used the solution for five years. 

The stability is stable and reliable. There are no bugs or glitches, and it doesn't crash or freeze. I'd rate stability eight out of ten. 

I don't have many large customers and therefore did not really test the scalability. That said, Sophos has the ability to place the solution in remote sites to provide more security to distant endpoints. 

We do not implement the solution with big customers. 

We have 13 customers using the solution. 

Sophos' support is good. We haven't had issues when dealing with them.

Positive

I'm also familiar with CrowdStrike and SentinelOne, which are more expensive even though they have more useful features. 

We had used SonicWall as well. However, the pricing was not ideal, and the support was not good. The appliance of SonicWall does not have too much processing power either. It did not meet our needs. Sophos has a smaller footprint. We can use a smaller Sophos appliance compared to SonicWall. This made it cheaper while offering more processing power. 

The deployment in a company of my size takes less than one day. 

The management console is in the cloud, which makes it very easy to access. 

There were approximately seven people involved in the deployment. They found it to be very simple and straightforward. 

My team handled the initial implementation. We did the setup in-house. 

The pricing is pretty decent. It's a good price. I'd rate the solution eight out of ten. 

We do not sell this solution at a regular frequency, and therefore I can't speak to the exact pricing. 

We only really have three options in our region based on price constraints. We've tried SentinelOne or Palo Alto. However, the pricing makes it very difficult. Companies can't invest too much in devices such as these. 

We sell Sophos, among other solutions. 

Sophos is a good solution. We have had very few issues. It's stable and offers good cost-benefit.

The firewall is very secure, and we like that the console is on the cloud. There are a lot of really good points when looking at Sophos. 

I'd rate the solution nine out of ten. 

Sophos EPP Suite is a powerful antivirus. The solution has many applications and a lot of configurations.

The solution’s performance could be improved for the end-users.

I have been using Sophos EPP Suite for five years.

Sophos EPP Suite is a stable solution.

Approximately, 300 users are using the solution in our organization.

We previously used Symantec. We switched to Sophos EPP Suite because it was more powerful than Symantec.

The solution's deployment is easy and doesn't take more than a few minutes.

We pay a yearly licensing fee for the solution.

On a scale from one to ten, where one is cheap and ten is expensive, I rate the solution's pricing a seven out of ten.

We use the latest version of Sophos EPP Suite since we have a cloud subscription. We have three technical staff in our organization supporting Sophos EPP Suite. Sophos EPP Suite helps us in protecting our environment.

I would recommend Sophos EPP Suite to other users.

Overall, I rate Sophos EPP Suite an eight out of ten.

We use the product to provide network and device security.

The product is stable and has a user-friendly dashboard. It has good security features. We can control the activities of multiple devices from a single point.

More integration options could be included in Sophos EPP Suite.

We have been using Sophos EPP Suite for a few years.

I rate the platform’s stability a ten out of ten.

We have 100 customers for Sophos.

We contacted the technical support team for basic product implementation.

The initial setup process is complex. It requires an expert engineer to tune and design it. We have a team of four executives for product implementation. The deployment time depends on the client's requirements. It can be deployed on-premises and in the cloud.

The product is inexpensive, and we receive good discount offers from our product partners.

Sophos EPP Suite has good performance and pricing. I recommend it to others and rate it a seven out of ten.
