Sophos is a great entry-level into computer security

  • May 09, 2023
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I liked the options that were provided, they have an array of products that cover the endpoints or servers even firewalls
What do you dislike about the product?
It wasn't super simple to maneuver or get started.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
When I had it, it allowed me to secure the endpoint for my clients who were recently starting a new LLC but need peace of mind that it would work.

Sophos UTM is suitable for SME/education institute.

  • March 09, 2022
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Sophos UTM is stable, I can say it included a lot of features inside one appliance such as AV, IPS, QoS, SD-WAN.
What do you dislike about the product?
The user interface is not friendly enough. I hope Sophos can give more visibility for the logs.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The reason why I am saying Sophos UTM is good for SMEs is that it's cheaper than markets' firewalls.

Sophos UTm review

  • September 21, 2018
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Solid security, ease of setup, great looking GUI and customer support is helpful
What do you dislike about the product?
The fact that port forwards have to be done with werid source ports.

Also don't like how network ports can't be bridged and Vlan'd .
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Security, endpoint protection. Very easy deployment and central is awesome
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Solid UTM but do your homework. Port forwarding has caveats like source port has to be 1:63365 or something like that.

Very nice entry level / SMB firewall appliance

  • September 17, 2018
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The ease of setup and the feature provided with this little appliance is absolutely amazing. I was quite impressed by the feature for price. I like the fact that it runs Linux in the background.
What do you dislike about the product?
Support is not reachable easily and eventually, you get somebody over the phone.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The lack of security in a SMB (a customer of mine) who wanted to have more visibility and enforce some security rules inside the teams
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Sophos UTM is a great entry level firewall who provided access to enterprise features/protections and the entry ticket is low. I really think it worth the investment for SMBs or branch offices.

No problems with this software. It does its job, and there have been no outstanding complaints in my department (IT) on campus or any other.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Able to ensure security over all computers/laptops at the university I am employed with (Southwestern University). There are no issues with security at this institution, (meaning no viruses or scam-like entities have been encountered) because of our use of Sophos UTM.
