Check Point Harmony Mobile vs. Sophos Mobile

It immediately tells you when an app is malicious, its always scanning the device. The policies you can enforce on the device allows you to know that the device can remain secure. I have a hard time describing scenarios where is it less appropriate because Harmony Mobile was made to secure mobile devices.

Our Mobile Endpoints were a big challenge for us, and after Sophos Mobile implementation, we have received all our official hand-held devices in a managed environment with a very effective manners, and now we are able to manage all the devices with defined Company Policy along with our rules and regulations.

The overall usability of the Sophos Mobile is fantastic, and we were able to deploy entire solutions within the stipulated timeline. The management perspective is also up to the mark, and the completely user-friendly GUI to understand and manage what we need. Adding different types of Endpoints into the Central Console was also very useful, with deep insights into the Policy and endpoint protection.

Harmony Mobile is really a cut above the rest because it really is the first application of its kind, the first Mobile Threat Defense tool that is designed for just that. Detecting and preventing threats. It should be the baseline used to develop other MTD applications because of its already high standards and quality.

Personally, haven't seen any other MDM on the market, but I feel since Sophos is greatly known to have easy to use products, that the others may not be as easy to use as Sophos Mobile Control. One of the key factors for organizations to choose Sophos Mobile Control and Security is because the Android OS (most attacked OS on the planet) is protected with award-winning antivirus and anti malware from Sophos. We have seen as advisors, how unprotected customers, get huge telecom bills because of the lack of security, since they think that an Android OS is healthy enough... big mistake. One simple thing I always tell friends, family and customers, protect your Android device with Sophos Security (it's free for home users).
