"The initial setup has been fine."
"This is a very stable product."
"It works well without any maintenance. So far, it has worked pretty well regardless of the traffic."
"The intrusion prevention is great, and I like dual virus scanning on the network layer because we scan it through Avira and Sophos. Web filtering is also a fantastic option for clients who want to really lock down internet access."
"Sophos UTM is the simplest of these products to setup."
"I had an issue when I was trying to stop a user from using too much bandwidth while I was using Azure, I was not able to stop them."
"I have problems with the email filtering. Emails pass through without any filtering affecting them. When I get back to them and tell them this is the issue, they check everything and say it is not in their database signature and they have to update it. But you know, by that time, my user has already opened it."
"The reporting part could be more user-friendly for troubleshooting and identifying network issues. It should be more easy for a normal user to identify the problem in their network."
"It is not a scalable product. This is because if you want to increase the capacity of the solution, then you have to change the device."
"The blocking needs to be improved."
"Needs a mail alert/notification when the device loses any of its connections, during ISP redundancy implementation."
"There needs to be more documentation that users can access to help them understand the solution or troubleshoot as necessary."
"Its scalability is not that great."
"There is still room for improvement in wireless protection. I don't mean their WiFi device is bad, but there are still things to improve on, such as WiFi roaming."
"I think that additional metrics features are needed to be able to monitor other areas or to monitor as much as you can, at a fine-grain resolution."
"They could definitely improve on the support, especially in other countries."
"The scalability of the product is an area with certain shortcomings where improvements are required."
"The only time we face a problem or issues is when we place a ticket. We have found that response is very slow."
"Sophos should be more user-friendly, have more dashboards, and an easier implementation."
"In short, the UI and UX are the areas of improvement in Sophos UTM and similar solutions compared to Palo Alto."
"I am going to flat out say technical support is terrible. Being a Platinum level customer, I am not happy with the support."
