Find out in this report how the two Unified Threat Management (UTM) solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The dashboard is very good-looking and offers maximum features. If a customer's website has a problem, we can guide them over the phone because they can easily find the specific option on the dashboard. That's why we suggest buying Sophos."
"The tool is stable."
"I like the SSL VPN connection. Cyberoam works well for controlling users and authenticating their connection to the internet."
"The product has helped control bandwidth utilization, as well as enhanced connectivity and security to remote locations."
"The solution's web filtering is an important feature for us in our company."
"The port forwarding is good."
"The solution has good load balancers."
"The reporting features are very good."
"We use Sophos UTM as our main firewall with all its features included. Mainly, it controls all of our network perimeter security: firewall, IDS/IPS, and web application firewall (including VoIP)."
"The most valuable feature is the price. I've been requesting prices all over these years between different solutions like Fortinet, Palo Alto, and Check Point and Sophos has been the cheapest and the best of all of them that I have tried. I have been working with Fortinet, it's a fact that the price is surprisingly better."
"Sophos UTM is very user-friendly and has good integration with other solutions."
"The implementation with the AWS environment was good."
"Sophos UTM provides security for our network here and access through a VPN connection for our remote users. It also offers the flexibility to create different tools for accessibility."
"Sophos has a single pane of glass which allows me to manage all my VPCs from a single instance, managing all my firewall from one place."
"The three most important features for us are web protection, web server protection, and network protection."
"The solution can scale."
"There is a lot or room for improvement, because it is still not a fourth or fifth generation firewall. It lacks security features."
"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."
"The reporting should be improved as well as the backup."
"The product fails to provide proper reports, making it an area where improvements are required."
"Technical support could be faster."
"The Traffic Discovery feature should allow administrators to disconnect unnecessary live connections."
"The following could be improved: Web Filtering using wildcards; clarity regarding the firewall rules; granular reporting features."
"There are some issues with logs and report limitations."
"When we call support, we get put on hold for a long time."
"There is absolutely no support when using AWS. If you buy the on-premise Sophos solution, you get support."
"I would like them to move from the Classic Load Balancer to the Network Load Balancer. This would make it easier to do certain things with Amazon. They are able to do some enhancements with Network Load Balancer that they are unable to do with Classic Load Balancer."
"We'd like to see them offer their services on mobile devices like tablets. I'm not sure if that's an option or not."
"I would like to see Sophos UTM add support for all the new threat-detection technologies and the ability to respond to novel security threats that come along every day."
"An area for improvement in Sophos UTM is load balancing because my company cannot use it currently. If Sophos could release a new configuration for the load balancing feature to work for my company, that would be great."
"I am going to flat out say technical support is terrible. Being a Platinum level customer, I am not happy with the support."
"The five-factor authentication needs improvement."
