Abel Browarnik - PeerSpot reviewer
A cost-effective security solution for endpoint protection
The initial setup is complex. It is rare to see an effective endpoint protection system that does not require some effort. It is neither on the cloud nor on-premises. You deploy it on every endpoint or server, irrespective of perimeter. You must use a deployment tool unless you prefer to do it manually on every endpoint or server. We used an automation tool to deploy it. Since we had MSI with us. We had to verify that everything worked, but it didn't take more than two weeks for 1000 endpoints.
Sherwin De Claro - PeerSpot reviewer
The solution provides endpoint detection and response with a nice-looking dashboard
The solution is easily scalable because it's in the cloud and we can push the agents using our Cafea solution. We can even deploy the applications to our remote branches easily. We currently have four people using the solution and if the number of computers increases we can scale up by increasing the number of licenses.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"First of all, it does the job. It prevents harm to the operating system. Also, the visibility it gives to the user and to the administrator is very good."
"Nyotron protects your users and does not acquire any threat intelligence."
"If you want something simple to work with, Sophos makes it very simple for you to use."
"We were concerned about the threat posed by malware. The product's effectiveness in addressing this threat and capturing it within the network has been quite helpful."
"The product’s selling point is its ability to protect against zero-day threats and its integration with the firewall."
"The solution is easy to set up."
"The solution's most valuable aspect, for us, is the DLP portion of the product."
"Sophos EPP Suite is a powerful antivirus."
"In terms of the Firewall, the EAP assist, the simple interface and the reporting features are quite good for clients. It's very easy to understand and to navigate the Dashboard."
"The most valuable features of Sophos EPP Suite are the detection capability, machine learning, ransomware protection, and live response."
 

Cons

"The solution should be available on Linux and other platforms, including mobile platforms such as Android and iOS."
"The main feature that is missing is to have the same solution on servers. Currently it's only protecting the client side, not the server. If they would add the server in the same solution, that would be great."
"The solution could be more stable."
"It would be ideal if the price could be lowered a little bit."
"The product's filtering and stability can be better."
"The solution isn't quite accurate enough. It provides a lot of false positives."

"Pricing is a consideration for us; for the Indian market, it is slightly expensive."
"There could be more integration included in Sophos EPP Suite."
"The user interface is not responsive."
