"The most valuable feature is the IPSec forwarding."
"It's easy to use."
"The cost of the solution is very reasonable."
"The features that I've known to be most valuable are both the web security features as well as the web firewall capabilities. As a partner of Sophos firewall, we have some clients and they are using Sophos firewall UTM and we are using it as well."
"Sophos UTM has a good user interface and granular security controls."
"Stability-wise, I rate this solution a ten out of ten...Scalability-wise, I rate this solution a ten out of ten."
"The UTM features are reasonably strong and the patterns are updated on a regular basis"
"Scaling out cannot be easier, as there are many migration paths."
"It makes it a lot easier for us to maintain things. Prior to it, things were more difficult. This means less time on us. We can focus on other things. The recovery is more in man-hours for us than anything else."
"There are some issues with logs and report limitations."
"The solution should improve its scalability because it cannot support enterprise networks."
"The VPN needs to be improved."
"Cyberoam configuration is done through the browser, which is one of the places that viruses spread."
"The product is at its end-of-life. There is nothing to improve as it will be discontinued."
"The implementation policy needs improvment."
"I would like to see real-time alerts on traffic insights."
"There is a lot or room for improvement, because it is still not a fourth or fifth generation firewall. It lacks security features."
"The virus updates will always depend on new viruses that are discovered. Maybe they can send a notification or a reminder for update time."
"It would be nice if it had basic features, such as DLP (Data Loss Prevention)."
"During initial configuration, I encountered a few issues."
"Email spam filtering only works if you have an on-prem Exchange server. It doesn't interface with Office 365 like the XG model. That would be one feature that they could improve. They're not going to do it because they're trying to push us all to XG."
"They could definitely improve on the support, especially in other countries."
"The initial setup may be difficult for those not familiar with the product."
"We didn’t find any issues but I know there have been some in the last few years."
"There needs to be some improvement in the IPsec VPN. There is implementation only support. I have version one. I'd be most interested in having IP version two from the protocol."
