Find out what your peers are saying about Sophos, Cisco, WatchGuard and others in Unified Threat Management (UTM)."The initial setup is pretty straightforward."
"I would recommend UTM over XG because it's easier to manage."
"The most valuable feature of Sophos UTM is the simple-to-use interface."
"Good basic firewall functions with advanced firewall scanning."
"I like the web filtering options."
"Configuration troubleshooting is eased by the use of the color-coded, live firewall log."
"The cost of the solution is very reasonable."
"The most valuable feature is ransomware protection."
"The most valuable feature is the network security module."
"It is stable and quite protective. It has a lot of features to scan a lot of malicious things and vulnerabilities."
"The MVX Engine seems to be very capable against threats and the way it handles APTs is impressive."
"Improved our systems and our customers' by providing better malware protection, defense against zero-day threats, and improved network security."
"It allows us to be more hands off in checking on emails and networking traffic. We can set up a bunch of different alerts and have it alert us."
"The product has helped improve our organization by being easy to use and integrate. This saves time, trouble and money."
"If we are receiving spam emails, or other types of malicious email coming from a particular email ID, then we are able to block them using this solution."
"The features that I find most valuable are the MIR (Mandiant Incident Response) for checks on our inbound security."
"The only time we face a problem or issues is when we place a ticket. We have found that response is very slow."
"Updates come out agonizingly slowly, a trickle."
"Finding information about Sophos’ sizing guidelines can actually be difficult. Also, Sophos does not make it clear what they mean by “users” when you are sizing a firewall, which then leads to undersized implementations."
"The solution needs to do better at covering mobile devices, although they may have an integrated solution for that purpose."
"We had some problems with the configuration. They had provided a CloudFormation template, and we had to go several rounds to make it work."
"The reporting system needs to allow for customizations because many reports do not include details that we expect."
"When we call support, we get put on hold for a long time."
"The reporting could improve by providing information on where, or from which device attacks are coming from. We are already given the country where the attack is coming from but more information would be beneficial."
"There is a lot of room for Improvement in the offering, from cost to functionality. It is pretty straightforward to implement which is an advantage. However, it falls short in pricing, detection capabilities, and, most importantly, reporting and policy management."
"Improvements could be achieved through greater integration capabilities with different firewall solutions. Integrating with the dashboard itself for different firewalls so users can also pull tags into their firewall dashboard."
"The product's integration capabilities are an area of concern where improvements are required."
"FireEye Network Security should have better integration with other vendors' firewalls or proxies, such as Palo Alto and Fortinet. Files that are being submitted should happen through the API or automatically."
"It doesn't connect with the cloud, advanced machine learning is not there. A known threat can be coming into the network and we would want the cloud to look up the problem. I would also like to see them develop more file replication and machine learning."
"It is very expensive, the price could be better."
"I would love to see better reporting. Because you can't export some of the reports in proper formats, it is hard to extract the data from reports."
"Based on what we deployed, they should emphasize the application filtering and the web center. We need to look deeper into the SSM inspection. If we get the full solution with that module, we don't need to get the SSM database from another supplier."
