"The product is one of the market leaders, according to Gartner, on mobile protection."
"The most valuable feature is the mobile device management capability. You can easily manage all of your mobile devices."
"The solution is quite user-friendly."
"I like the level of interaction that the product offers with the other products in our company's environment."
"One of the most valuable features of Sophos Mobile is the Wifi password."
"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 initial setup process is straightforward and fast."
"The security features work well."
"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 one thing that I know that they're working on, that's not quite there in the product, is the artificial intelligence aspect."
"For Sophos Mobile, it is difficult to get good support."
"The setup should be made easier."
"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."
"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."
"There may be necessary adjustments that need to be made because we are facing certain restrictions within the work profile."
"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 encounter issues while working with iOS."
