    The program really excels at basic mobile protection against malware and viruses. It offers some unique features as its anti-theft application that can help keep mobile devices from being used by unauthorized users. It works well when providing basic security for mobile devices out in the field or in remote work situations. However, it companies may need more extensive or additional security applications to ensure adequate protection

    Cons
    Sophos
    • The platform was developed many years ago, a fresher look (even for the cloud-based console) would be appreciated.
    • The ability to control mail platforms other than MS Exchange.
    • The ability to control more features on iOS (knowing how the iOS Platform is at the moment).

    • The program could use some improvement in its setup and installation process.
    • Another area needing improvement could be its interactive interface.
    • Perhaps a learning tutorial or guide could be added to the application.

    Usability
    Sophos
    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.

    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).

    McAfee Mobile Data Protection offers basic security measures for mobile computing devices without a high cost or extensive training. However, it also may lack some needed features such as data encryption utilized by other products. While its interface is not perfect, it is easier to learn than more feature robust products on the market.

    • McAfee Mobile Data Protection provides a fairly easy and low cost security measure for providing basic to medium security for mobile devices. While not perfect, it does it basic job fairly well.
    • The program may require a bit of a learning curve for some end users with its interface and installation processes. This may require some additional training or support.
    • The program lacks some of the more advanced data protection abilities found in other competitor products. The result may be a need for additional security applications.
