What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Security, endpoint protection. Very easy deployment and central is awesome

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
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.
excellent computer security
What do you like best about the product?
Very easy platform to use, easy to run updates on any operating system and provides security for all applications in use where confidential information is used.
What do you dislike about the product?
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.
Sophos is easy to manage and does the job.
What do you like best about the product?
Sophos basically runs itself, so any kind of update just happens in the background, and we don't have to interrupt class time to make changes.
What do you dislike about the product?
Can't say there's a lot I dislike, except it's not the most extensive anti-virus.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Sophos is automatically dealing with threats we likely couldn't catch in time on our own.

Sophos Firewalls Rock
What do you like best about the product?
The Sophos firewalls are are full of features to protect the corporate network. Everything from IPS, to Reverse Proxy Services, to SSL VPN, and more. You can even do deep packet and application aware scanning and control.
What do you dislike about the product?
When purchasing, there is a kind of black magic to choosing the right hardware level. The firewall must be sized just just depending on how much bandwidth you have and how many services you want to turn on.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Full integrated security management for the corporate network. The firewall will integrate with the Sophos antivirus and antiransomware software give you a wholistic approach to network security.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Dont skimp when sizing the hardware. The more you spend today, the better the solution will fit for the duration of its life.

Sophos UTM
What do you like best about the product?
XG units are easy to manage thanks to their cloud console and have very powerful features. The "security heartbeat" that syncs endpoint antivirus/antimalware/anticrypto with the firewall is a no brainer. Combined with the ability to manage FDE and see which users pose the highest risk based on behavior has made the entire stack invaluable to our clients.
What do you dislike about the product?
SG units are solid but take too many steps to create and apply new policies. Some of the documentation is not entirely clear at first, but they seem to be improving it. Support can be hit or miss, depends on who picks up the phone. We've never had a problem not fixed before we ended the conversation, but sometimes the call went longer than it should have.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The ability to manage all of our clients in one dashboard has greatly streamlined our processes, saving us time and leading to faster service times.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
XG units are the way to go. We always recommend one model up from what the current client needs are to allow for growth and new features.
Sophos is easy to use
What do you like best about the product?
Easy to navigate GUI interface. ssl vpn is rock solid.
What do you dislike about the product?
WAF function has tripped me up before, causing issues.

Firewall, vpn, dynamic routing, threat detection.
