Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"The solution can be easily connected and it is very secure.""The most valuable feature is the synchronized security. It's a unique feature on the market at this time only offered by Sophos. As a reseller, we often win bids and get clients because of this unique trademark feature.""The advantage of Sophos SafeGuard stems from the fact that it is more secure than other products in the market.""Policy deployment is easy and quick to do.""It's the best solution on the market.""The setup process is straightforward.""The malware protection and the scanning features are most valuable in this solution.""The solution can block a virus attack and prevent it from moving across the system."

Cons
"An area for improvement in Sophos SafeGuard is the pricing. Pricing should be better when adding a new account or scaling the product.""Having a DLP integrated with the encryption engine would be very good.""The cost is rather expensive. It's a pain point for many clients. They should work to see if they can reduce pricing.""When you have the PPM chipset, you can have the power-on authentication, when you boot up your machine, you can set the six-digit passcode. As of right now, SafeGuard can't manage the six-digit passcode in terms of the expiration, and I need that added as a feature.""The solution lacks direct connectivity to Azure AD.""The product's next release could have integration features with different internal and external systems.""Sophos SafeGuard is a German product. Sophos isn't really active in Europe. The Middle East, Africa, South Africa works with Sophos but their primary users aren't in Europe. They should market and push this solution to the European market.""The product is not cheap."

"If they could introduce it on the cloud, it would be ideal.""I'm not on the most current version, however, I know one area that I didn't get into that I kind of wanted to is to have a mobile device management tool. My understanding is it's improved a lot from the version I have. It may be a feature that is already available."

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "The licensing costs depend on the series. For example, XG 85 can be around $200. If you go to ACC or to a four or five-year enterprise solution, you will find these devices can cost $10,000. It depends on the series."
  • "Licensing for this solution is on a yearly basis."
  • "The licenses are dependant on the number of users and computers you have to protect."
  • "We have a yearly license with Sophos which is around $1000-$1200 or so per annum. There are no additional costs beyond the standard licensing fee."
  • "Licensing is on a yearly basis and the pricing could be better."
  • "It would be great if the price of the solution was lower than the current price. If we are to sell this particular solution to smaller businesses and not just enterprise businesses it needs to be lower."
  • "We pay around $10 a year for each endpoint, including support."
  • "Pricing for Sophos SafeGuard could be improved because it could reach a thousand dollars depending on the product, edition, and software key purchased."
