Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"The user interface is simple, It makes it very easy to use.""It's the best solution on the market.""It is seamless and easy to install. We haven't encountered any recent issues.""SafeGuard's best feature is its stability.""The most valuable features of the solution are the fact that they are able to encrypt the hard disk and to encrypt USB sticks.""The monitoring features are easy to use.""The malware protection and the scanning features are most valuable in this solution.""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."

Cons
"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.""Sophos should conduct some seminars to teach people how to use it and also to inform the users about what they should do in case of problems.""The dashboards lack sufficient information.""It's a good product, but some are not happy with the boot BCN, and the point-to-point VPN requires the best protection.""It would be ideal if the solution had different features within one agent.""There are times that this solution takes up too much memory that needs to be resolved. If it is not fixed it will definitely create issues in the future.""You have to pay extra for some additional features, like data extraction. It would be nice if everything was available in one bundle.""SafeGuard's user interface is ugly and doesn't provide reports, so we have to go into the database and get information from there by creating queries."

"If they could introduce it on the cloud, it would be ideal.""I'm not on the most current version, however, I know one area that I didn't get into that I kind of wanted to is to have a mobile device management tool. My understanding is it's improved a lot from the version I have. It may be a feature that is already available."

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "The licensing costs depend on the series. For example, XG 85 can be around $200. If you go to ACC or to a four or five-year enterprise solution, you will find these devices can cost $10,000. It depends on the series."
  • "Licensing for this solution is on a yearly basis."
  • "The licenses are dependant on the number of users and computers you have to protect."
  • "We have a yearly license with Sophos which is around $1000-$1200 or so per annum. There are no additional costs beyond the standard licensing fee."
  • "Licensing is on a yearly basis and the pricing could be better."
  • "It would be great if the price of the solution was lower than the current price. If we are to sell this particular solution to smaller businesses and not just enterprise businesses it needs to be lower."
  • "We pay around $10 a year for each endpoint, including support."
  • "Pricing for Sophos SafeGuard could be improved because it could reach a thousand dollars depending on the product, edition, and software key purchased."
