Easy-to-Use Portal, Reliable Endpoint Protection, and Responsive Support
Sophos installed on each endpoint receives updates at regular intervals, and the same status is visible in the admin console as well. Overall, the performance has been consistently reliable and never disappoints.
The pricing has gone down, which is a positive change, and it now meets all the expectations we had.
The vendor NetNxt, which we collaborate with for Sophos, has been helpful and responsive, and they answer whenever we need support.
I haven’t used the AI feature in the console yet, so I don’t have much to say about it.
The protection it gives for the endpoints is magnificent along with the tune able policies as per our needs.
IF this could be Improved that would be a great help.
Sophos Central makes it easy to define general browsing policies
Unified, Cloud-Based Security Management with Real-Time Visibility
Centralized Dashboard with Real-Time Visibility and Effortless Policy Management
The Device Management panel is very helpful for checking endpoint health, applying policies, and isolating compromised systems remotely. I also rely on the Threat Analysis Center to investigate malware detections and review root cause analysis.
The policy management feature allows me to modify web control, application control, and threat protection policies easily without logging into multiple systems. Additionally, the reporting section helps me generate scheduled reports for management and customers.
Overall, the centralized control, real-time visibility, easy policy deployment, and detailed reporting are the features I use the most, and they significantly reduce administrative workload.
2. Faster Threat Detection & Response
3. Better Reporting & Compliance
Centralized security management has simplified real-time protection and unified policy control
What is our primary use case?
As I am from a service-based company, my main use case for Sophos Central is that I am taking care of all of our security needs.
I use Sophos Central to block any website or application. For example, if I want to block WhatsApp, I simply call that specific application through Sophos Central.
I can manage Sophos firewall from Sophos Central, along with managing ZTNA , encryption, mobile MDM , and Sophos MDM .
What is most valuable?
The best feature of Sophos Central is that I can use all of the solutions from Sophos in a single pane of glass, which means I can manage all the services of Sophos from one console.
Having everything in one console makes my work easier because if I want to make a change on the firewall, I can simply go to the firewall management and make the changes. If I want to change anything related to Sophos wireless, I can directly change it from Sophos firewall without needing to access multiple consoles.
Sophos Central has positively impacted my organization because it allows us to utilize Sophos products in a single pane of glass, and with its synchronized security, it helps to protect our environment more effectively by isolating infected devices from the internet.
What needs improvement?
I think Sophos Central could be improved by offering an on-premises option because some users prefer to keep their data locally rather than in the cloud.
I think if there were a new licensing model for Linux endpoints, it would be very helpful for us.
For how long have I used the solution?
I have been working in my current field for the last two years.
What do I think about the stability of the solution?
Sophos Central is stable.
What do I think about the scalability of the solution?
Sophos Central's scalability is excellent because I can add any licenses at any time without needing to create a new console. For example, if I have 100 endpoints and need 20 more licenses, I can simply purchase them and continue to use them within the same console.
How are customer service and support?
The customer support for Sophos Central is very good. If I call support at any time, they will assign a new engineer according to SLA immediately or within one to three hours.
Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?
I previously used Trend Micro before switching to Sophos Central because Trend Micro did not integrate with the console like Sophos Central does.
How was the initial setup?
The experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing for Sophos Central has been very good. Additionally, there is no license required for Linux EDR machines, and if Sophos were to add Linux EDR licensing, it would be very helpful for my organization and others.
What about the implementation team?
The data is already stored in Sophos cloud, specifically in Sophos database.
What was our ROI?
I have not seen a return on investment yet.
Which other solutions did I evaluate?
I evaluated CrowdStrike as well, but I found that CrowdStrike does not provide the same level of protection with site management and application control as Sophos Central does.
What other advice do I have?
I would advise others to use Sophos Central because of its performance and customer support. It works in real-time, making it beneficial for many organizations. I can add that we can manage Sophos firewall from Sophos Central, along with managing ZTNA , encryption, mobile MDM, and Sophos MDM. My review rating for Sophos Central is 10.
