Head IT at NorthSYS Integrators
Discontinuation of Hardware and limited firewalling capabilities
Overall, I would rate the solution a four out of ten. For UTM, I will not suggest Seqrite. But for EPS and antivirus, it is good. Cost-wise also and some features. The features wise also, it is good. And support is also good. We can get support on WhatsApp. So support-wise, it is also good.
Stu Harris - PeerSpot reviewer
Managing Consultant at Affordable IT
Reliable security features have effectively protected against breaches and promote scalable network management
The methodology of the rule sets is perhaps one of the plus points. I think everybody else does it, but the way the rule sets are configured makes it an easily understandable way to manage. One of my presentations demonstrates appropriate and affordable, comprehensive threat protection with centralized management and improved network security. This describes how firewall and VPN functionalities of this product benefit my organization. Protection and identity based security are probably the major selling points, with logging and centralized management. It allows you to identify issues first, and the reporting facilities are there and can be automated. You've got automated reporting that you can set appropriate levels of reporting to management and to the operational team, so they are alerted to what's going on. This describes how Sophos Cyberoam UTM's reporting capability helps in managing our network effectively.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"It has an MDM solution."
"The dashboard is very good-looking and offers maximum features. If a customer's website has a problem, we can guide them over the phone because they can easily find the specific option on the dashboard. That's why we suggest buying Sophos."
"Web and content filtering are valuable in preventing people from abusing the network and pushing up the bandwidth price."
"User and network policies to be managed on a single screen with powerful filtering and search options."
"I find Sophos Cyberoam UTM very good. I like the feature of being able to block off Mac IDs that host users. For example, you have a Mac or Windows laptop and you created a hotspot. Other devices like mobiles and tablets e.g. iPads connected to that hotspot. We can block those devices that connected to the hotspot we created, only through Sophos. It's a good feature we didn't find in other UTMs."
"The features that I find most valuable in Sophos Cyberoam UTM is the RED, the Sophos RED, which is the SD-WAN, a very welcome feature that has made us fully transition out of the paid MPLS to SD-WANs."
"Bandwidth Management and aggregation is valuable for combining two ISPs, making switching to a secondary or redundant ISP seamless in the event that the primary ISP goes down, and for limiting heavy downloaders that may negatively impact the experience of other users."
"The tool's robust features allow for the customization of policies, objects, and firewall settings."
"Web Filtering and Application Filtering saves a lot of my bandwidth and improves the user's productivity."
 

Cons

"This solution is not accurate. Sometimes, the switches got hung. So sometimes, whatever policies we have deployed were not working properly."
"The product’s pricing has increased by approximately 45% in four months. This particular area needs improvement."
"Smaller CR15 units don’t have a hard disc or built in IView software. These units could do with that feature."
"SD-WAN should be included in the tool."
"The scalability needs work."
"The hardware has no user limit (the hardware is the limit) while the virtual edition has user limits (I do not like limits). It is a bit expensive, but totally worth the money."
"I don't know whether this will be included in an upgrade, but I would like to get the user utility, like seeing where the users are using more of the data."
"The product fails to provide proper reports, making it an area where improvements are required."
"It is not a scalable product. This is because if you want to increase the capacity of the solution, then you have to change the device."
