"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 management and enrollment process is great, and with the asset management and instant action menu, we can easily maintain and support the users.""One of the most valuable features of Sophos Mobile is the Wifi password.""They always add more features to this product.""The utmost importance lies in mobile security and its performance.""The solution is quite user-friendly.""The remote management and cloud-based maintenance features of this solution are very useful for our organization.""I like the level of interaction that the product offers with the other products in our company's environment."

Cons
"On the exchange server, you do not have the best options for adjusting your mailbox. This feature is not included. Also, disaster recovery backups can be improved. Some other solutions, such as HP Data Protector, have more features."

"Our support reps are based in the Philippines, and it's hard to connect with them sometimes. It took me about two months to resolve my issue, so it wasn't a good experience.""There may be necessary adjustments that need to be made because we are facing certain restrictions within the work profile.""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.""It could be more secure.""The setup should be made easier.""For Sophos Mobile, it is difficult to get good support.""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 would like to see graphics showing the use of each device."
