We performed a comparison between Check Point Pointsec [EOL], Sophos SafeGuard, and Symantec Endpoint Encryption based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out what your peers are saying about Microsoft, Sophos, Check Point Software Technologies and others in Endpoint Encryption."One of the characteristics that give us the most value is that it offers the ability to perform HTTPS inspections."
"Check Point GAiA is easy to use."
"At the time when this tool was launched on the market, it had new technologies integrated within."
"Full disk encryption helps us ensure that data stored on a device is encrypted."
"It's a straightforward solution."
"The solution has done a fabulous job of protecting us from threats."
"It's easy to use. You have to pay extra for additional, but the basic product is fantastic. It will be a good solution for you, depending on your requirements."
"With Sophos, I only need to generate the password and give that to a user to be able to allow them to login to the admin page of the Endpoint and do whatever they need to do. The user cannot go ahead and uninstall it. It's kept us much more secure because of this. Should any event happen on a particular system, I'm given the username and the system IP address. I get notifications and can deal with issues right away."
"The solution has a great VPN."
"It is one of the best products when it comes to stability."
"The user experience and the quality of the features are good."
"The solution can block a virus attack and prevent it from moving across the system."
"It is stable."
"The solution is pretty stable."
"You get updates and other encrypted files easily."
"The encryption feature is very good."
"We use it for protecting accounts, which is its most valuable feature."
"We can extend it to all of the critical endpoints and the servers, and we can ensure the confidentiality of the data."
"The installation process is pretty straightforward."
"The management console gives us the ability to quickly control who sees what, ensures we are on the latest version, and up-to-date."
"In the next release of this solution, I would like to see application identity support."
"The installation was quite complex."
"The UI was one of the most difficult points to get used to. Due to the UI, even though it was used every day, the administration was complicated."
"We would maybe want (in the future) advanced security in the filtering of access to the metaverse by augmented reality cameras."
"The solution lacks direct connectivity to Azure AD."
"If it's possible, they should make all the features available because it's got a lot of features on offer, but you have to buy the license in order to add those features to the normal Endpoint. If they could make all those features available and/or offer a bundling option it would be better."
"The integration could be a little better."
"As a tool, Sophos SafeGuard is not optimized."
"The lack of need for the patch for an extra password is a shortcoming. It will be a great improvement if the patch requires an extra password so that they can find out how to synchronize your Windows password with the same password for Sophos SafeGuard."
"I would like to see a support-cloud, where Sophos creates a single package that contains all of its products."
"The security does not have 100% authentication."
"The product is not cheap."
"If for example, a user forgets the endpoint key, they cannot access their data. We need a support team that is a single point of contact for the IT entity to be trained and to have documentation for troubleshooting and managing the solution."
"They have too high of a price tag. That's why they're losing the market share."
"I think that they should improve the on-premises version to include the manageability and simplicity that is available on the cloud."
"I do not find the environment to be very user-friendly."
"There are other solutions in the market that have new features. The feature could improve."
"Its decryption time needs to be improved. Currently, its decryption time is very long, and it takes double time than encryption. They need to work on that. Its encryption time is fine."
"The UI could be improved."
"More features need to be included in the encryption software."
