"The monitoring features are easy to use."
"The Intercept X feature is the most valuable feature. You can't find this feature in other firewalls because Intercept X works as if it has an interaction between the endpoint and the firewall."
"It's the best solution on the market."
"The advantage of Sophos SafeGuard stems from the fact that it is more secure than other products in the market."
"The malware protection and the scanning features are most valuable in this solution."

"The product filters phishing emails."
"Integration with other solutions is one of its strongest points. It's very easy to integrate and automate."
"They need to segregate McAfee Complete Data Protection for endpoints and servers."
"The product must improve endpoint encryption."
"Though there may be some ransomware detection modules now in McAfee Complete Data Protection, it's a field that McAfee should focus on, particularly having integration with some EDR or other add-ons. This is so McAfee Complete Data Protection would have more accuracy in detecting new ransomware in the market. What I'd like to see in the next release of the solution is for its pricing to be more cost-effective because some competitors have cheaper pricing, so McAfee Complete Data Protection can't compete. Sometimes, some new vendors offer other solutions rather than McAfee Complete Data Protection, to win customers over, and this is a loss for McAfee."
"There was an option for SQL setup in the older versions of this product and it has been removed, but we would like to see it made available as an add-on."
"We encountered several problems with the solution's stability."
"Some clients still receive spam and malware in their attachments, so the data protection isn't working correctly. We have configured it and enabled the features in the client's system, but some policies have failed to work once or twice."
"The solution's pricing could be better."
"This solution does not do as well at protecting the end-user against unknown viruses."
"Lacks GDPR regulations to enhance security."
"The pricing is high for licensing and support and the GUI interface is good but could use updating."
"In my experience, it's not really user-friendly for me, in terms of how I navigate with the ePolicy Orchestrator. They need to upgrade their management console."
"The solution needs to be a one-stop protection shop. And yet, the DLP isn't strong. Anyone can break it quite easily."
"Integration with other vendors could be improved. For example, with Chrome or Firefox."
"The support from McAfee Total Protection for Data Loss Prevention is good. However, if they provided 24 hours a day seven days a week support that would be a helpful addition."
"McAfee Total Protection for Data Loss Prevention could improve by having artificial intelligence."
"Our client is not very happy with the lack of support, the skills, and the effectiveness of the tool."

"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."
"The dashboards lack sufficient information."
"You have to pay extra for some additional features, like data extraction. It would be nice if everything was available in one bundle."
"There's no centralized management. This is a drawback."
"Sometimes, multiple updates and crashes happen in the tool, making it an area where improvements are required."
"What would make Sophos SafeGuard better than competitors is if its management console also includes firewall management. In the future, I want Sophos SafeGuard to be more scalable."
"When you have the PPM chipset, you can have the power-on authentication, when you boot up your machine, you can set the six-digit passcode. As of right now, SafeGuard can't manage the six-digit passcode in terms of the expiration, and I need that added as a feature."
"It just needs a little bit more on the reporting side. Its reporting can be improved a little bit in terms of being able to know that things are in the right status. I should be able to pull a report to make sure that everything is all right. It could also have cloud integration. At the time I was using it, it wasn't a cloud product."
