"The solution is quite user-friendly.""The utmost importance lies in mobile security and its performance.""I like the level of interaction that the product offers with the other products in our company's environment.""The remote management and cloud-based maintenance features of this solution are very useful for our organization.""The management and enrollment process is great, and with the asset management and instant action menu, we can easily maintain and support the users.""Sophos can block the Wi-Fi connection on a mobile device. That's one feature we wanted, but the main thing is the ability to disable the device if it's lost or stolen. We need to shut down PayPal, so it can't be used to make unauthorized purchases.""They always add more features to this product.""One of the most valuable features of Sophos Mobile is the Wifi password."

Cons
"On the exchange server, you do not have the best options for adjusting your mailbox. This feature is not included. Also, disaster recovery backups can be improved. Some other solutions, such as HP Data Protector, have more features."

More OpenText Connected MX Cons →

"We have experienced issues in updating iOS devices when we set a minimum version requirement policy, and we do not have the option to force automatic installation. This means that the device must be supervised in order for updates to be applied, which we would like to see improved.""Our support reps are based in the Philippines, and it's hard to connect with them sometimes. It took me about two months to resolve my issue, so it wasn't a good experience.""The setup should be made easier.""We encounter issues while working with iOS.""They continue to work on integration with mobile device management and mobile security. They are improving the protection but I think that the capabilities still need to be enhanced.""For Sophos Mobile, it is difficult to get good support.""The features of Sophos Mobile could improve. The way the system works together could be better. Additionally, the integration with other Sophos products could improve.""To manage the Apple devices is not that straightforward there are a lot of features the other third parties solutions are offering which Sophos Mobile is not."
