"The initial setup was easy."
"The initial setup is pretty easy."
"The solution is easy to handle and configure."
"The most valuable feature is ransomware protection."
"Sophos integrates seamlessly, and we don't even feel it is running in the background."
"Sophos UTM's most valuable features are profiling and its simple configuration."
"Sophos UTM has a good user interface and granular security controls."
"The installation phase was easy."
"The sandbox feature of FireEye Network Security is very good. The operating system itself has many features and it supports our design."
"The product has helped improve our organization by being easy to use and integrate. This saves time, trouble and money."
"The product is very easy to configure."
"It allows us to be more hands off in checking on emails and networking traffic. We can set up a bunch of different alerts and have it alert us."
"Very functional and good for detecting malicious traffic."
"I also like its logging method. Its logging is very powerful and useful for forensic purposes. You can see the traffic or a specific activity or how something entered your network and where it went."
"It protects from signature-based attacks and signature-less attacks. The sandboxing technology, invented by FireEye, is very valuable. Our customers go for FireEye because of the sandboxing feature. When there is a threat or any malicious activity with a signature, it can be blocked by IPS. However, attacks that do not have any signatures and are very new can only be blocked by using the sandboxing feature, which is available only in FireEye. So, FireEye has both engines. It has an IPS engine and a sandbox engine, which is the best part. You can get complete network protection by using FireEye."
"The five-factor authentication needs improvement."
"We need a better VPN client for the customers."
"The solution needs to do better at covering mobile devices, although they may have an integrated solution for that purpose."
"During initial configuration, I encountered a few issues."
"The lack of import/export functions for network and service options drives me mad."
"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."
"I would like to see the SD-WAN feature improved."
"The reporting system needs to allow for customizations because many reports do not include details that we expect."
"Based on what we deployed, they should emphasize the application filtering and the web center. We need to look deeper into the SSM inspection. If we get the full solution with that module, we don't need to get the SSM database from another supplier."
"Its documentation can be improved. The main problem that I see with FireEye is the documentation. We are an official distributor and partner of FireEye, and we have access to complete documentation about how to configure or implement this technology, but for customers, very limited documentation is available openly. This is the area in which FireEye should evolve. All documents should be easily available for everyone."
"Technical packaging could be improved."
"Stability issues manifested in terms of throughput maximization."
"It would be very helpful if there were better integration with other solutions from other vendors, such as Fortinet and Palo Alto."
"Certain features in Trellix Network Detection and Response, such as using AL-type commands, may initially pose a challenge for those unfamiliar with such commands. However, once users become accustomed to the system, it becomes easier to use."
"Technical support could be improved."
"A better depth of view, being able to see deeper into the management process, is what I'd like to see."
