Experience significant threat prevention advancements with user-friendly deployment
The feature is called relay server, and some people refer to it as a cache server. The Sophos EPP Suite is scalable. Some customers in banks typically have 5,000 to 7,000 users. One customer started with 1,000 users and has now extended to 4,000 users. Some customers are using up to 8,000 users without any issues. Regarding AI elements in the Sophos EPP Suite, firewalls have already introduced AI features. They have integrated AI models similar to ChatGPT in firewalls. These AI features should be introduced in endpoint XDR as well. Key features for comprehensive detection and prevention include advanced threat prevention, ransomware protections, exploit prevention, and AI-powered detections. Extended visibility and data analysis include cross-product data correlations. They have a data lake, live discover, and threat graphs. They also offer AI case summary and AI common analysis, accessible from Sophos Central, which is the management portal for Sophos XDR. Sophos Central serves as one central management portal for managing firewalls, endpoint, Sophos encryption, and mobile device management solutions. This centralized management is particularly appealing to customers.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"It's a pretty good product. It's on level with other products in the market."
"The Sophos people here in South Africa are very helpful."
"The solution efficiently protects the servers for our customers."
"If you want something simple to work with, Sophos makes it very simple for you to use."

"The feature I find most valuable is that it protects the global station."
 

Cons

"The automation side of the setup is a pain. I have to run the installers manually."
"In my country, having an on-premises deployment model is preferred. In this part of the world, on-premises is still the way many companies want to go. Therefore, they should supply some sort of option that allows for that reality."
"Deployment and central management need to be improved."
"Sophos EPP Suite demands significant resources just to operate. For example, it takes up more than 50% of the resources on our laptop to run it. So, even if we buy a laptop i7 and use 50% resources for Sophos, it will cost us more because every computer needs energy. I don't know why or what the exact problem is."
"The product should improve support and provide more scalable clustering."
"The product's filtering and stability can be better."
"I would like to have more logging features to help more deeply analyze traffic."
"There could be an equipment inventory feature for the solution."
"The solution's integration with the Windows environment could be better."

"The pricing is reasonable."

"If you compare this to other solutions from a pricing perspective, the enterprise version of Sophos turns out to be cost-effective."
