Edwin Mwaura
Information Technology Manager at Peponi Schools
My company uses the product against malware and for URL filtering or blocking of URLs. I wanted a comparison between Sophos Cyberoam UTM and other tools in the market since Sophos does not give you reports of certain sites, meaning that it just blocks a website without giving a proper report. I would like something to be integrated on top of Sophos Cyberoam UTM that will give our company the autonomy to send emails to designated leaders and teams. As the product that my company wants is not available in Kenya or in Africa, my organization is in the process of looking for another firewall that we can use.

SIYAT HULBALE
Network Administrator at Hass Petroleum
I'm using Cyberoam in close to nine locations.
We are using, for example, IP sets from Kenya to Somalia, a place where we could not get MPLS connectivity.
We have a secondary server in the Somalia office. I also use it from the Nairobi office to the Dubai office as the MPLS is very expensive and I need to do a backup daily. That is for the IP sec.
For the VPN, we use it to access our ERP systems remotely from everywhere. Close to a hundred users use it and it has been stable.

We are a solution provider and Sophos Cyberoam UTM is the main product that we sell. We also use it as part of our own network security solution as well.
The primary use cases are setting data quotas on a per-user level, web filtering, and granting or denying access to resources. In Sri Lanka, the data is always limited, which is one of the biggest problems that we have.
