Sophos XG Reviews

We use the Sophos XG firewall as part of our network security solution.

The user authentication rules are very useful.

Sophos needs improvements made to the console, such as host entry or defining rules directly from it.

We have been using Sophos XG for the past five years.

I do not feel that this is a stable product. URL filtering is not good.

I have not had any experience with technical support.

The initial setup is straightforward. It took a week to deploy.

This is not a product that I can recommend to anybody who wants to implement a firewall.

I would rate this solution a four out of ten.

The primary use case of this solution is as an endpoint firewall and proxy.

The features that are most valuable are synchronized security, the security hard build, the application synchronization, and the events synchronization.

it's user-friendly, not complex.

The uploading and downloading of reports should be included.

We are looking for a firewall to block the uploads from the user, not the downloads. I would like to see this feature updated.

In the next release, I would like the uploading and downloading reports to be included.

I have been using this solution for almost two years.

We will be upgrading to the newest version that was released two or three months ago.

This product is stable.

This solution is easily scalable. We have 15 to 20 users.

The initial setup is straightforward.

It's easy to understand and to install.

I am a technical analyst and handling the pre-sales. We provide and implement the solution to our customers.

I would rate this solution an eight out of ten.

My clients gain efficiency in protecting against attacks from malware such as ransomware and hacker attacks. It also provides them efficient internet access control, and full visibility of ports, applications, and websites.

• IPS
• Very efficient
• Web Filter
• Captive Portal with Voucher and Application Control.

It could offer other important functions such as a DNS Filter for blocking botnet networks.

No stability issues.

No scalability issues.

Satisfactory.

I still use Fortigate, also Sophos UTM. As I'm a solution consultant, I have different clients where each solution fits the environment.

Simple and easy.

Excellent product, meets most of the security needs of companies of various sizes. You can buy it without fear.

The solution acts as a filter. 

A valuable feature involves the solution's manageability. 

Even though things work on the back end, we have encountered bugs in the solution. 

User interface and integration can stand improvement.

I have been working with Sophos XG for two or three years. 

Owing to the fast and adequate response time we get, we do not have complaints about the stability. 

Scalability is not an issue for us, as we are getting the requisite support, with fast response time. 

The price is good for the moment. 

We are a provider of services to our customers.

I would recommend this product to others. 

I rate Sophos XG as a seven out of ten, owing to the bugs we have come across. 

Sophos XG is used as our firewall.

We are an MSP, and we have a variety of clients with varying needs. It is a solution that is tailored to each of our clients and their specific requirements.

The most valuable feature of this solution is flexibility.

Scalability could be improved. It could be better.

I have been working with Sophos XG for approximately six years.

Sophos XG is a stable solution.

It is scalable in the majority of cases. We've had a couple of problems.

Our main application is for medium-sized companies.

We are also using FortiGate.

The initial setup is easy, it's straightforward.

The technical support is good. We have no problems with technical support.

The price is reasonable but it would be great if it was reduced to half the price.

I would recommend this solution. They all have different strengths and weaknesses, it all depends on the environment.

I would rate Sophos XG a nine out of ten.

I generally use Sophos for the firewall and also for endpoint protection. 

The dashboard is easy to use and quite sensitive, I like it. The reporting offers a lot of detail and that's good. 

The technical support they offer is difficult to access. There is no direct number to call and when you do get hold of them and have confirmation, it takes a while to get a response.

I've been using Sophos XG for about seven months. 

I haven't had any issues with stability. 

Dealing with technical support is not simple. 

The initial setup is straightforward. 

I know a little about Cisco which is less complicated than Sophos, but I prefer the Sophos dashboard. 

I recommend this solution, the only issue is that it's not suitable for enterprise size companies. 

I rate this solution a seven out of ten.
