"It helps us maximize the operational efficiency and performance of our activities."
"SafeGuard's best feature is its stability."

"The malware protection and the scanning features are most valuable in this solution."
"It's easy to use. You have to pay extra for additional, but the basic product is fantastic. It will be a good solution for you, depending on your requirements."
"I like that Sophos SafeGuard provides excellent technical support."
"The advantage of Sophos SafeGuard stems from the fact that it is more secure than other products in the market."
"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."
"One notable aspect is the ability to customize alerts and other settings."
"The initial setup was easy."
"Overall Symantec Endpoint Encryption is a reasonable solution."
"We have been very satisfied with the solution's security capabilities."
"It is stable."
"This product is a solid, all-in-one solution for enterprise data management."
"Their cloud features such as Cloud Endpoint security, ransomware modules, malware, and other modules are very effective."
"The management console gives us the ability to quickly control who sees what, ensures we are on the latest version, and up-to-date."
"They could improve the latency in the platform when entering the portal."
"The cost of maintaining the system is high for personal use."
"The price is high for small scale business enterprises."
"In the future, I would like to see is the ability to decrypt equipment."
"Sometimes the performance rates are not consistent."
"The encryption is fast; however, when it comes to generating decryption of the OS disks, it is sometimes very slow, generating a loss of time."
"Regarding the general topic of support, many have annoyances with it."
"The tool should be able to recover data from a stolen device."
"Having a DLP integrated with the encryption engine would be very good."
"The product's next release could have integration features with different internal and external systems."
"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."
"I would like to see a support-cloud, where Sophos creates a single package that contains all of its products."
"Sophos SafeGuard cannot block or quarantine such viruses. Quarantine is a feature with shortcomings that needs improvement."
"The product is not cheap."
"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."
"SafeGuard's user interface is ugly and doesn't provide reports, so we have to go into the database and get information from there by creating queries."
"One feature that is lacking is integration with Symantec Information Centric (ICT). As it is now, I don't see how to integrate the encryption with ICT, and in my opinion this is an area that certainly requires encryption, even though it's no longer supported by Broadcom."
"I think that they should improve the on-premises version to include the manageability and simplicity that is available on the cloud."
"More features need to be included in the encryption software."
"What I didn't find helpful in the version we used is the fact that all devices had to be on the same network for us to push through the encryption."
"The solution does slow down the device a little bit, once it's installed."
"We would like some advanced security protection features."
"The solution does not have endpoint control."
"From an administration point of view, maybe it would be ideal to have it centrally managed."
