Sophos Email Reviews Summary
Author infoRatingReview Summary
Network and infrastructure manager at Sonysugar4.5I use Sophos Email for endpoint and email protection, appreciating its effective firewall and spam reduction features. However, the email installation process should be more user-friendly to eliminate the need for partner assistance.
Technical Head at a tech services company with 51-200 employees5.0No summary available
IT Manager at Celebrity Fashions Ltd4.5I have found Sophos Email to be cost-efficient, though it has some performance issues that need improvement. After experiencing spam issues with Fortinet Fortimail during on-premises use, switching to the cloud with Sophos Email has been beneficial.
Operations Technical Lead at IT Supporters4.5I have used Sophos Email for four years to enhance email security. It's easy to manage, integrates with Office 365 and Google Workspace, and offers strong anti-spam features, but lacks support for split delivery, limiting protection configuration for selected mailboxes.
Team Lead, Infrastructure, Security & Service Management at C&I Leasing Plc,3.5I find Sophos Email as effective and efficient as Microsoft ATP, with valuable spam protection. While it needs improvements in email scanning, it has positively impacted efficiency and cost savings. We've transitioned from previous solutions for better security.
Technical Director at SPATIAL DATA ENGINEERING Ltd4.5We use Sophos Email with Microsoft Exchange Online for seamless email scanning. Its superior filtering capabilities are intuitive and ideal for multi-user environments. Though setup was challenging, it has significantly reduced unsolicited emails and enhanced security, especially for government contracts.
Senior manager IT infrastructure at Machine Learning 1 Limited ·3.5We use Sophos Email as an email gateway to manage spamming and malware control effectively. The identity proxy feature is reliable, though sandboxing and spam control need improvement. Alternatives considered included Barracuda and Trend Micro.
Director Technical Services at TechnoBIZ3.5I find that Sophos Email effectively bolsters email security with signature-based detection, though it's not as effective as FortiMail and Trend Micro. Users occasionally experience false positives, and improvement in rule customization would enhance control over security settings.
