"The solution's interface is user-friendly, and the web protection is good. The tool is highly stable. The product is scalable. The technical support is good. We chose Sophos Cyberoam UTM because their focus on security research is higher compared to other brands. It's an all-in-one solution with antivirus, EDR, wireless protection, and web protection integrated into one box. The initial setup was straightforward."
"The performance has been good overall."
"All in one UTM appliance."
"The solution works perfectly without any users."
"The most valuable feature is the IPSec forwarding."
"I believe it's the advanced security software that offers SMPP protection for the agent."
"The product, itself, doesn't seem to have any bugs or glitches."
"The most valuable feature of Sophos UTM is the simple-to-use interface."
"Configuration troubleshooting is eased by the use of the color-coded, live firewall log."
"It does not take much effort or thinking to understand how it works."
"The product is extremely intuitive."
"The initial setup has been fine."
"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."
"It has allowed us to design a bespoke cloud space for our clients, while still having an excellent level of protection."
"Good basic firewall functions with advanced firewall scanning."
"The data support response time should be improved."
"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."
"In my experience the solution can be easier to configure with more documentation, we need more training."
"The reports need to be more detailed and granular."
"The product’s pricing has increased by approximately 45% in four months. This particular area needs improvement."
"Sophos Cyberoam UTM could improve by adding VPN site-to-site capabilities. The correct version does not work with Microsoft Azure Cloud."
"The reporting should be improved as well as the backup."
"With Sophos UTM, there is a general rule in the firewall when the country blocking can block some countries from accessing your data. In the current version, you still need to add it by putting in the IP range. This feature would be helpful for administrators and it gives them the advantage to block stuff in less time."
"Needs to improve the certificate management (ex. Let's Encrypt support)."
"The reporting could improve by providing information on where, or from which device attacks are coming from. We are already given the country where the attack is coming from but more information would be beneficial."
"It does have built-in policies, which enable you to disable USB devices, etc. It would be nice if they had more policies because there are not that many of them."
"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."
"I didn't like it much. It suits only small businesses. It isn't scalable and reliable. There is a very critical issue with the power supply."
"I would like this solution to support ICAP. Also, they no longer support on-premises management, and are forcing clients to use centralized management via the cloud, which I don't agree with."
"There's an issue that when we deploy UTM on fiber, it automatically upgrades to the latest version without giving an option to stay on the current one."
