We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"Full disk encryption helps us ensure that data stored on a device is encrypted.""One of the characteristics that give us the most value is that it offers the ability to perform HTTPS inspections.""Check Point GAiA is easy to use.""At the time when this tool was launched on the market, it had new technologies integrated within."

"The management and enrollment process is great, and with the asset management and instant action menu, we can easily maintain and support the users.""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 utmost importance lies in mobile security and its performance.""They always add more features to this product.""One of the most valuable features of Sophos Mobile is the Wifi password.""The initial setup process is straightforward and fast.""In terms of valuable features, we liked the lock feature, the roll-out white feature, and the find feature. I think that Sophos had a GPS locator, so you could figure out where the phone was from a GPS location.""The solution provides us with data protection."

Cons
"The installation was quite complex.""The UI was one of the most difficult points to get used to. Due to the UI, even though it was used every day, the administration was complicated.""In the next release of this solution, I would like to see application identity support.""We would maybe want (in the future) advanced security in the filtering of access to the metaverse by augmented reality cameras."

"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.""There may be necessary adjustments that need to be made because we are facing certain restrictions within the work profile.""In terms of what could be improved, the initial configuration and setup of the environment could probably be made a little bit easier. There are so many pieces that go into it. Intune is absolutely insane and Sophos is better, but it still is a bit complex to get it all set up correctly.""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.""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.""It could be more secure.""We would like to see graphics showing the use of each device.""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."
