Sophos Firewall Reviews

We are IT, service providers, here in Pakistan, we provide solutions for our customers.

We deploy this solution for the health care industry, in hospitals.

There are many valuable features.

It's a good product.

It is not recommended for larger enterprise customers.

They need to improve the SD-WAN feature.

As we are service providers, we have deployed multiple deployments of Sophos XG for our customers.

Our clients are using the latest version.

Sophos XG is a reliable product.

Sophos XG is easy to scale.

We have eight to ten customers who are using this solution.

Technical support is good but there is a delay in response.

The response time needs improvement.

We deal with Fortinet and Sangfor as well.

The initial setup is easy to apply. It is not complex.

The product is well priced. We are happy with the pricing.

The license is subscription-based.

I would recommend this solution for less than 5,000 users.

I would rate Sophos XG an eight out of ten.

We use Sophos XG to provide access to our internal environment, to our infrastructure for our clients.

It is easy to implement.

It is very secure, which is why we have chosen it.

It is already secure but it could be better in terms of other breaches that may occur.

I have been using the latest version of Sophos XG for a few months.

It's a stable solution.

Sophos XG is scalable.

This solution is being used by approximately 800 to 1,000 people.

Technical support is very good. They are very prompt.

I have not used any other solutions before using Sophos XG.

The initial setup is straightforward. It is easy to install and it only took a few hours to do.

You only need one person to maintain this solution.

We have an in-house team to install and deploy the solution. We did not use an integrator.

We pay our licensing fees yearly.

I don't think that it is expensive when you compare it with other solutions available on the market.

We have not had any issues with this solution. I would recommend it and my advice is that people should definitely try it out.

I would rate Sophos XG a nine or a ten out of ten.

I use this solution for a firewall and proxy server.

The valuable features of this solution are the VPN, load balancer, and the QoS for splitting the ISP band.

The reports could improve, they do not seem complete and more information could be added.

I have been using the solution for approximately two years.

I am very happy with the stability of the solution.

There are currently five people using this solution in my organization.

The technical support is good and they provided me assistance through email.

The initial setup is easy. It takes approximately three hours to install.

There is a license required for this solution that is priced well and all the features are included.

I would recommend this solution, it is very good.

I rate Sophos XG a ten out of ten.

I have found the solution easy to use and fully integrated.

The solution could improve by having better security.

I have been using this solution for one year.

In my experience, I have found it to be scalable.

The installation took approximately one day to complete.

We did the implementation of the solution and we used a team of two.

I would recommend this solution to others.

I rate Sophos XG a nine out of ten.

We mainly use this solution for team meetings. We also implemented the LAN control for Sophos XG.

We have been dealing with this solution for the past four years and we haven't had any challenges or complaints from any of our clients.

We created and configured a VPN for connecting our remote sites to make them more secure and reliable. We also like its two-factor authentication features.

The support service level agreement in regard to the amount of time needed to upgrade things is too low. It should be higher.

I have been using Sophos XG for roughly four years. 

This solution is both stable and secure.

The technical support is good enough. 

I would absolutely recommend this solution to others. It's far better than other solutions available on the market right now. This solution could benefit any organization. 

Overall, on a scale from one to ten, I would give this solution a rating of nine. 

I generally use Sophos for the firewall and also for endpoint protection. 

The dashboard is easy to use and quite sensitive, I like it. The reporting offers a lot of detail and that's good. 

The technical support they offer is difficult to access. There is no direct number to call and when you do get hold of them and have confirmation, it takes a while to get a response.

I've been using Sophos XG for about seven months. 

I haven't had any issues with stability. 

Dealing with technical support is not simple. 

The initial setup is straightforward. 

I know a little about Cisco which is less complicated than Sophos, but I prefer the Sophos dashboard. 

I recommend this solution, the only issue is that it's not suitable for enterprise size companies. 

I rate this solution a seven out of ten. 

I like how you can integrate with other endpoints and Intercept X in one central management platform. I think it's a perfect solution. Sophos will manage everything in one container. You can manage many firewalls or endpoints within one panel.

Data traffic analysis could be better. I think Fortinet products like FortiAnalyzer are very effective in analyzing data traffic. I think it's better than Sophos. It could also be more stable.

I have been using Sophos XG for more than two years.

I think Sophos has to concentrate on the latest firmware's stability because we have version 18, and we have many problems with our customers who have this version. I think Sophos has to thoroughly test the firmware before launching it. When you get any update on any hardware device, you get many problems. It's not good.

On a scale from one to ten, I would give Sophos XG a seven.

Our clients from the governmental and enterprise sectors have multiple use cases for this product. 

The most valuable feature of this product is threat protection. Filtering and web protection are important as well. 

Sophos XG's web server protection and log viewer could improve. They should also introduce sandboxing. 

I have about five years of experience with this solution. 

The solution's stability is fine. 

There is not much flexibility or scalability with this solution. 

The Sophos XG technical support is good. 

Sophos XG deployment is easy and rapid. 

Most of our clients that end up choosing Sophos XG also consider Fortinet. However, Sophos XG has a better user interface. It is also better with managing users, updates, and integrating with Active Directory. 

Before deciding on this product, it's important to evaluate the price of the network.
