More McAfee MVISION Mobile Pros →

"The initial setup process is straightforward and fast.""I like the level of interaction that the product offers with the other products in our company's environment.""The utmost importance lies in mobile security and its performance.""One of the most valuable features of Sophos Mobile is the Wifi password.""Sophos can block the Wi-Fi connection on a mobile device. That's one feature we wanted, but the main thing is the ability to disable the device if it's lost or stolen. We need to shut down PayPal, so it can't be used to make unauthorized purchases.""The solution is quite user-friendly.""The security features work well.""The most valuable feature is the mobile device management capability. You can easily manage all of your mobile devices."

More McAfee MVISION Mobile Cons →

"They continue to work on integration with mobile device management and mobile security. They are improving the protection but I think that the capabilities still need to be enhanced.""The features of Sophos Mobile could improve. The way the system works together could be better. Additionally, the integration with other Sophos products could improve.""The product does not work well in iOS.""There may be necessary adjustments that need to be made because we are facing certain restrictions within the work profile.""To manage the Apple devices is not that straightforward there are a lot of features the other third parties solutions are offering which Sophos Mobile is not.""We have experienced issues in updating iOS devices when we set a minimum version requirement policy, and we do not have the option to force automatic installation. This means that the device must be supervised in order for updates to be applied, which we would like to see improved.""We encounter issues while working with iOS.""The setup should be made easier."
