    Comodo
    In an enterprise, where there is a threshold of many new users with whom there is a need to share the internet, Comodo Firewall can really ease the burden. Security of network and infrastructure increases with less cost compared to other alternatives. Allows advanced users to create advanced scenarios and deal with them.

    It is mid-level when it comes to running it by a non-IT person. I have no technical/IT training and can figure out on my own (or with a little web search) how to do most tasks. It may not be best for the very tech-challenged operator.

    • Interface is a little difficult to get Hands On. It can be simplified for better adaptability
    • XDR compatibility should be enhanced
    • More simplified white-books should be provided to train the non tech teams
    • Commercially also the cost should be improved for different industry segments

    I am pretty satisfied with Sophos Central Device Encryption's overall capabilities. It is easy to implement and ultimately brings more peace of mind because fewer tickets are generated. As a result, security within the organization is also improved. Another significant advantage is that you can quickly see the statuses in real time on the dashboards. This gives you a better overview and reduces the chance of missing minor security settings.

    Although AWS WAF is really nice and convenient, it only runs on a web application level, no doubt it has no match in that particular segment, and it is prone to vendor locking. Comodo on the other hand provides better service on the system and network level. if you have to choose a better UI, Comodo is the best solution

    At that time, we chose Sophos based on the reputation and our partnership with our partner. And in general Sophos could give us more benefit than other competitors with the similar solution. However we do not feel comfortable to disclose information about comparison with other solutions. Despite that, we think Sophos could deliver our requirements very well with the cost that were reasonable for us.

    Return on Investment
    Comodo
    • For enterprise level company, it has really great ROI.
    • Not perfect fit for individual use or for small company.
    • We streamlined the process of managing network security.

    • It's had a positive impact as it's allowed us to effectively secure hard drives with bitlocker encryption
    • A larger part of our work force works from home, and Sophos can be deployed remotely and will start encryption almost straight away on any computer that isn't already encrypted.
