Cons
"The response time for technical support could be faster.""While the solution works as it should, it is overly expensive.""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.""You do need to be careful that you don't mess too much with the endpoint, or you might have issues with the work stations.""In the future, I would like to see is the ability to decrypt equipment.""I rate the support from Check Point Full Disk Encryption Software Blade a six out of ten.""I would like to bring centralized management to mobile devices."

"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.""You have to pay extra for some additional features, like data extraction. It would be nice if everything was available in one bundle.""Having a DLP integrated with the encryption engine would be very good.""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.""Technical support could be a bit better.""The solution is not using other features like booting encryption, because it causes very heavy processing of the workstation. If they could find some way to handle the encryption and decryption to be lighter on the workstation it would be better.""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.""It's a good product, but some are not happy with the boot BCN, and the point-to-point VPN requires the best protection."

More Sophos SafeGuard Cons →

"Sometimes, when generating random numbers to our mobile feed the random number doesn't work. We mainly deal with QR codes because of this. If they could fix the random number generator that would be helpful.""When the agent upgrades itself, it loses some settings and they need to be re-enabled manually.""Contact Backup.""This solution is weak and cannot detect the latest ransomware.""Trend Micro tends to drain the battery running in the background, but apart from that, they need to improve their updates.""There have been some users who have been complaining about the interface being unfriendly and when the application software is installed on their phone making their mobile slow.""There is always room for improvement in security.""The iOS protection: This is because Apple will “close” your smartphone."

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "As it costs $125 per workstation per year, something which is above the price of what the competition is charging, the solution is definitely too expensive."

  • "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."

  • "Pricing for Sophos SafeGuard could be improved because it could reach a thousand dollars depending on the product, edition, and software key purchased."

  • "Very cheap in cost"
  • "Each license costs about $10/year. It's fairly inexpensive because it's a new product. In Pakistan, no more than two or three companies can apply for mobile protection right now. I don't know if there are ancillary costs above the standard licensing fee."
  • "We have a license that we renew yearly."
