Find out what your peers are saying about Microsoft, McAfee, Sophos and others in Endpoint Encryption."The most valuable feature is the data encryption option for columns and tables."
"The features that are the most used by the customers and partners are, at the moment, for GDPR, so obviously data encryption and data reduction. Our customers also like the partitioning option."
"SafeGuard's best feature is its stability."
"It is seamless and easy to install. We haven't encountered any recent issues."
"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."
"What I love most about Sophos SafeGuard is its user-friendly interface. My company has another software with a complex user interface versus Sophos SafeGuard, which is extremely easy to use."
"I like its ease of use the most. The management console is really nice. I like having one pane of glass that does everything. It does the Sophos anti-virus and encryption. Everything that you need is in one place. It is easy to use, and it is also pretty fast. It provides some pretty good details, and it lets you know who has access to a file. You can also add additional people to the encrypted documents, which is pretty good. Its stability and performance are also very good."
"The features that I have found most valuable are encryption tools that encrypt the hard disk and the USB sticks."
"It's the best solution on the market."
"It is one of the best products when it comes to stability."
"Having a single command to encrypt a table would be an improvement."
"It is really constrained as an environment because you cannot change something that would be useful. It is a very good product because it is very similar to what you have on-premises. Yes, it is constrained, but it is expected because it is a platform as a service so it has to be constrained."
"The solution lacks direct connectivity to Azure AD."
"You have to pay extra for some additional features, like data extraction. It would be nice if everything was available in one bundle."
"An area for improvement in Sophos SafeGuard is the pricing. Pricing should be better when adding a new account or scaling the product."
"The cost is rather expensive. It's a pain point for many clients. They should work to see if they can reduce pricing."
"It would be ideal if the solution had different features within one agent."
"The product is not cheap."
"Sophos SafeGuard cannot block or quarantine such viruses. Quarantine is a feature with shortcomings that needs improvement."
"Having a DLP integrated with the encryption engine would be very good."
