A simple but effective firewall appliance
What do you like best about the product?
The Sophos XG firewall appliance running UTM v9 software is an affordable way to achieve a very good level of perimeter security. The XG-210 model we use is adequate for SMEs, smaller sites and branch offices and does the job well.
What do you dislike about the product?
Despite being easy to use, the web console can be a bit tedious to use. Moreover, it can be necessary to manually force-check for updates from time to time, and the updates almost always require a reboot, which is a problem for always-on 24/7 services. It is therefore recommended to run two devices in failover mode or in high-availability mode.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
With two redundant and synchronised Sophos UTM firewalls, we're able to efficiently protect the perimeter of our hosting sites and if one of the appliances were to fail, the other one would take over and continue to protect our servers.

Sophos Firewall best gateway protection for your organization
What do you like best about the product?
The Sophos firewall is a very effective solution for gateway security, what makes Sophos Firewall unique is it's easy to use of GUI Interface and Detail reporting systems, in which you can schedule the reporting as per your convenience, feature-wise it has all necessary requirements for manageability, and we can integrate it with Sophos Central for more secured access for outside your organization
What do you dislike about the product?
Sophos has very good feature of reporting but it has very limited time of logs available on the device to save the log you have to use the external resources, It would be nice if they increase the log time limit to 1 year
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It has been a very effective solution so far, we are able to block the unwanted traffic and restrict users from surfing unwanted sites or downaload unwanted software on the device and also have application control which allows us to restrict the use of online apps, which actually increased the productivity of office work and reduces the chances of unwanted interruption at work due to external threats. By integrating the Active Directory into the Firewall it's easy to get reports on user activity.
