Clear and Easy-to-Navigate Interface: The product's clear and easy-to-navigate interface has received praise from many users. They have found it simple to understand and use, allowing them to quickly access the features they need.
Effective Email Scanning and Filtering Capabilities: Reviewers have mentioned that the product's inbound and outbound email scanning and filtering capabilities are highly effective. They appreciate how it stops emails of dubious origin and provides alerts on held emails, minimizing spam emails and protecting against phishing attacks.
Reliable Protection with Customization Options: Users have stated that the product provides reliable protection against various threats. They appreciate how end users can easily understand warnings and manage quarantined items. The ability to customize workflows, such as manually approving certain emails before release or automatically applying encryption for external messages, has been well-received.
Limited administration settings: Some users have mentioned that the administration of the product has fewer settings compared to other vendors, which may limit their ability to customize and fine-tune the product according to their specific needs.
Integration limitations: Several users have expressed concerns about the integration capabilities of the product. They feel that certain features such as AD Sync Integration and Synchronized Security Reporting could be improved to provide more flexibility and granularity. For example, they suggest allowing the selection of multiple OUs in AD Sync Integration and enabling reverse AD sync to remove users from Sophos when they are removed from Active Directory.
Lack of advanced features visibility: A number of reviewers have found it a bit challenging to locate advanced features within the product's interface. While they appreciate its smooth graphic interface, some users feel that more guidance or tips integrated into the user interface would be helpful in discovering and utilizing these advanced functionalities effectively.

(1-10 of 10)Sophos Email Review
- Security and compliance
- Ease of configuration
- Integration with other Sophos products via 1 common management plane
- UI can be "busy" sometimes
- Global block/allow lists sometimes don't work as expected
Sophos email is a have to have!
- A clear easy to navigate and understand interface
- Advanced drill down options for investigating
- The instant very fast sandbox feature to test those email links and attachments
- We have just started using the updated web GUI
- So we do not see any areas for improvement yet
- But with my team using this more and more we might find some
Sophos Email - You Get What You Pay For
- Blocking specified file types as attachments
- Allowing users to release quarantined emails
- They are adding new features at a decent pace
- Portal encryption. Outside users are not able to reply to everyone on the email chain. They can only reply to the person who sent the email.
- You cannot control which mailboxes are licensed.
- Email filtering. A lot of spam emails and spoofed emails tend to get through. This has gotten better recently with a slider that allows you to specify how aggressive the system is.
An easy to manage and implement tool that is also in the cloud and this gives it omnipresence.
- The integration of the mail with the Data Leak Prevention module is really easy, convenient and timely.
- The fact of combining typical forms of protection, such as blacklists, sender's reputation with advanced machine learning capabilities, with static content analysis and execution of attached files, allows us to trust the product more and more.
- The cloud console allows you to have all the email information at the reach of a cell phone or tablet, allowing administration in a simple way and from anywhere.
- Sometimes the spam email is suddenly eliminated, without going to a quarantine, this prevents an administrator from reviewing and being the one who has the last word on the good or bad of the email.
Our Sophos Email experience
- Ease of use and management for admins
- Flexible policies
- Malware and virus screening
- Better support for internal emails (within our domain)
- Notifications for quarantined messages
for more complex solutions. We are missing some ability to maintain filtering policies with specific rules
- Monitors and protects inbound/outbound emails very well.
- Policies are flexible and easy to manage.
- Works well with Office 365.
- Dashboard layout is nice and informative.
- Reporting could be more granular, it's the most glaring weakness of the product.
- The ability to drill down into data from the dashboard would be very helpful for reporting as well.
- Reverse AD sync so when active directory users are removed, they are removed from Sophos as well would be helpful.
I can't think of a scenario where Sophos Email would not be appropriate if you're looking for a solid, well-built, and well-performing spam filter/email gateway.
- Minimizing SPAM emails
- Protection against Phishing attacks
- Protection of Office 365
- I'm not sure but I think that Sophos Email is not compatible with some email platforms such as ZEBRA
- Third part ranking
- The email awareness component is not part of Sophos Email and should be ordered separately
