Find out what your peers are saying about Microsoft, Sophos, Check Point Software Technologies and others in Endpoint Encryption."I like its ease of use the most. The management console is really nice. I like having one pane of glass that does everything. It does the Sophos anti-virus and encryption. Everything that you need is in one place. It is easy to use, and it is also pretty fast. It provides some pretty good details, and it lets you know who has access to a file. You can also add additional people to the encrypted documents, which is pretty good. Its stability and performance are also very good."

"It just needs a little bit more on the reporting side. Its reporting can be improved a little bit in terms of being able to know that things are in the right status. I should be able to pull a report to make sure that everything is all right. It could also have cloud integration. At the time I was using it, it wasn't a cloud product."
"The integration could be a little better."
"Technical support could be a bit better."
"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."
"You have to pay extra for some additional features, like data extraction. It would be nice if everything was available in one bundle."
"The cost is rather expensive. It's a pain point for many clients. They should work to see if they can reduce pricing."
