Find out what your peers are saying about Microsoft, Sophos, Check Point Software Technologies and others in Mobile Data Protection."The integration features are the most valuable. The integration is specific to each solution. It works well with SQL and Oracle databases and so on."
"The solution can be easily connected and it is very secure."
"The Intercept X feature is the most valuable feature. You can't find this feature in other firewalls because Intercept X works as if it has an interaction between the endpoint and the firewall."
"With Sophos, I only need to generate the password and give that to a user to be able to allow them to login to the admin page of the Endpoint and do whatever they need to do. The user cannot go ahead and uninstall it. It's kept us much more secure because of this. Should any event happen on a particular system, I'm given the username and the system IP address. I get notifications and can deal with issues right away."
"I like that Sophos SafeGuard provides excellent technical support."
"The intrusion detection system."
"The advantage of Sophos SafeGuard stems from the fact that it is more secure than other products in the market."
"The setup process is straightforward."
"I like the support most of all."
"On the exchange server, you do not have the best options for adjusting your mailbox. This feature is not included. Also, disaster recovery backups can be improved. Some other solutions, such as HP Data Protector, have more features."
"It would be ideal if the solution had different features within one agent."
"Sophos should conduct some seminars to teach people how to use it and also to inform the users about what they should do in case of problems."
"In the next release, I would like to see more automation with the endpoint logging, but it's a special feature that is quite complicated to explain."
"Sometimes, multiple updates and crashes happen in the tool, making it an area where improvements are required."
"There are times that this solution takes up too much memory that needs to be resolved. If it is not fixed it will definitely create issues in the future."
"If it's possible, they should make all the features available because it's got a lot of features on offer, but you have to buy the license in order to add those features to the normal Endpoint. If they could make all those features available and/or offer a bundling option it would be better."
"The lack of need for the patch for an extra password is a shortcoming. It will be a great improvement if the patch requires an extra password so that they can find out how to synchronize your Windows password with the same password for Sophos SafeGuard."
"Once you lock a server, you won't be able to install or put something on that particular server, but on the PC or machines, the lockdown feature is not there, and it is a query our company raised when we had to provide details for Sophos' review."
