Sophos XG Reviews

Our main use case of this solution is to support internal clients with virus scanning on laptops and on critical processors.

An area of improvement would be the reporting as diagnostic graphs take a long time to load and refresh. If there could be an option to show only select graphs, it may speed up the graphics.

Most of the time we don't use the disk usage, memory or CPU graphs. The main graph we watch is the bandwidth usage.

Additionally, their previous update contained many bugs. They need to ensure that, before releasing a new version, there are not so many bugs.

I have been using this solution for two years.

The solution is stable.

We previously used Caveo Systems, but that was about 10 years ago.

The initial setup is very easy. The licensing and setting up of firewall rules takes some time, but the full deployment took about an hour.

The pricing is economical.

I recommend the solution due to its ease of use and pricing.

Sophos XG is used as a firewall to manage our WiFi connections.

The security of Sophos XG is very good.

Sophos XG could improve by coming out with more innovative feature developments.

The solution is secure, but security could always be better, they should work on perfecting the security of Sophos XG.

I have been using Sophos XG for approximately a few years.

I have found Sophos XG to be very stable.

The scalability of Sophos XG is great.

As our business grows we will increase the users using this solution.

I have not connected the technical support from Sophos XG. I have only used online support from websites which was good.

The initial setup is very easy, it took less than one hour.

We used an integrator for the implementation of the solution.

We have two engineers for the deployment and maintenance of Sophos XG.

The price of the Sophos XG is very good. There are not any licensing costs, it is a one-time purchase price.

I would recommend Sophos XG to others. It is a good solution and I am satisfied.

I rate Sophos XG an eight out of ten.

Sophos XG is used as a network firewall.

In the Sophos XG, the SD-WAN has all the rules done separately, such as net policy routing. In the previous version, they were all in a single rule and everything was done that way. The way it is now is difficult for us because we are not used to this newer version. The firewall rules should be easier to configure and create. Everything should be done with a single click.

In the next version, the solution would be more user-friendly overall.

I have been using Sophos XG for approximately two years.

The stability of Sophos XG is good, it has good performance.

Sophos XG has good scalability.

We have approximately 50 people that use the solution in my company.

We use this solution on a daily basis.

We have contacted the support from Sophos XG but we do not require the support often.

We previously used Sophos Cyberoam and we switched to Sophos XG because it was the end of life for the Sophos Cyberoam and the bandwidth was poor.

The initial installation of Sophos XG was not difficult.

We used an integrator to do the implementation of Sophos XG.

We only require one person for the implementation and maintenance of the solution.

The solution is very good and we have received a return on investment.

The price of Sophos XG is reasonable. 

I would recommend this solution to others.

I rate Sophos XG a six out of ten.

We use this solution for connecting site-to-site and client-to-site VPN for two protocols, IPsec and SSL VPN. We use encrypted tunnels to achieve fully secure connectivity between sites and clients.

It gives me a very good, stable connection in all tunnels.

Of course, it improves my organization to achieve fully secure connectivity between sites and clients.

It has a good web filtering database and a good application control database in addition to intrusion prevention. Together, these give me confidence in our security.

All of the features in this solution are good. The most valuable is the IPsec VPN tunneling and SSL VPN tunneling, both site-to-site and client-to-site.

The log viewer is extremely helpful for analyzing all incoming and outgoing traffic.

I would like to have remote access to clients using a static IP for a certain period of time. This would allow me to log in to any client, remotely, with a known and fixed IP address.

This is the first solution that we implemented.

It's a suitable price and license.

We did not evaluate other options before choosing this solution.

We use this solution to secure the computers within our environment.

Sophos offers great disk encryption, anti protection, and the interface is very user-friendly.

I would like to next release to be able to support on-premise deployment. The construction of the rules within the firewall could also use some improvement.

I have been using Sophos XG for about two years.

This is a stable solution, I have not had any issues in regards to stability.

This is a scalable solution. We have about two hundred users in our company.

I have not needed to contact support.

We were using ESET prior to switching to Sophos. ESET was a very simple solution that was unable to detect malware or ransomware. We had an attack and needed to switch to a solution that supported ransomware.

The initial setup was very straightforward and took about one week to complete.

We used an integrator to compete the deployment. We have a contract with them so we do not need any in-house team members for maintenance. 

I would recommend this solution as it offers good protection.

I would rate the solution a seven out of ten.

This solution is implemented for medium and large enterprises to protect their network from attacks and to filter the web traffic through web protection and application protection modules.

This solution includes Email protection, IPS, Antivirus gateway, ATP, Reporting, VPN, Sophos Wireless controller, load balancer, WAF, and traffic shaping.

1. It's protecting our networks from threats.
2. Block URLs and web applications based on business needs.
3. Not expensive when compared to other vendors, with a great added value.
4. Impressive synchronized security with its endpoint solution.

All of the features are amazing, especially Sandstorm, which prevents bad traffic or downloaded files from reaching our customers' and partners' networks.

Network security is in need of improvement.
