Pros

That includes files and web browsers.""The most valuable feature is the quick installation.""It does not take many resources during scanning.""Flexible antivirus and antimalware software. It also provides protection against ransomware. It's flexible, easy to handle, scalable, and stable.""Norton Security Premium is good, and it's pretty simple to install.""The dashboard is good.""The most valuable feature is the multifunctional protection."

"The performance and scalability are impressive. We can install it on various computers.""The product’s selling point is its ability to protect against zero-day threats and its integration with the firewall.""The most valuable feature of Sophos EPP Suite is the accounting and reporting services are good and professional. The business features of the solution are very useful, such as the reporting page for clients. It provides a clear understanding of usage, including how much traffic has been used and how much is remaining. Additionally, it's user-friendly and easy to understand. Overall, the solution is good, useful, and has a helpful user interface.""The solution's setup is straightforward and doesn't take much time to complete.""What I like best about Sophos EPP Suite is that it's a good product. What's nice about it is that after I installed it on my computer, the tool detects and eliminates most of the problems, malware, and vulnerabilities. It works very well and is very efficient because it doesn't use up many resources from my computer. For me, Sophos EPP Suite is the best security and antivirus solution. In terms of its endpoint capabilities, I'm unable to comment on other Sophos security devices, but it seems Sophos EPP Suite has a next-generation firewall feature, though I didn't use it, and it may not be comparable to other next-generation firewalls. My current firewall is a next-generation firewall from Fortinet, and it's the best firewall for me in terms of cost and security, but for endpoint protection, I use Sophos EPP Suite, and it has the best security for my device. The tool is also good for organizations. It's the best tool.""With Sophos, the scanning of viruses and scanning of the disk is done silently in the background.""The protection that this solution offers us is strong.""The solution is easy to set up."

Cons
"Security Premium's cost could be lower.""Sometimes the program is too complex.""Having a dashboard that shows the different functions of Norton Security Premium can convince end users that the software is more than just an antivirus solution. This product offers several features, but end users think that it's just one out of the box solution, because the different functions are not explained in detail.""The only problem with Norton Antivirus is that it consumes a lot of resources like CPU and memory in the background. Whenever it's scanning, my laptop becomes very slow, and the worst part is you cannot do anything about it. As this product is secured by my local IT team, you cannot even kill that process, and that's what I've felt about many other antivirus solutions. I'm using McAfee for personal use, and I have the same problem.""Occasionally when you open a ticket, there's a lack of understanding that prevents the solution from being resolved directly.""The solution can improve the security modules.""It would be helpful for me if this solution works on our cloud backup data.""The product is an antivirus, it should be updated automatically when needed."

More Norton Security Premium [EOL] Cons →

"Sophos does not currently inform users of potential compatability issues with Windows updates.""The update part is a bit tricky in the solution...The support is not that good.""If we could bypass the first couple of levels of support when we have a problem then it would be easier and quicker when we need an issue resolved.""The solution lacks technical support.""Sophos EPP Suite's support services need improvement.""We use cloud services quite a bit. Therefore, I would like to see integration with other security tools besides endpoint so that I'm not managing different tools separately. I would prefer to have a single security solution for my laptop and for managing other security things like passwords.""It would be ideal if the price could be lowered a little bit.""There could be enhancements made to the DLP."
