Sophos
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.

I would recommend this program ideally more for larger organizations, but that is not to say you couldn't use it for personal use. I think it's ideal for an organization because of all the features it has in one program. It provides all the protection you'd need in a corporation, especially for ones dealing with sensitive company/personal/financial information. Administrators are also able to set specific settings for users so the company can tailor security restrictions as needed

  • Commercially also the cost should be improved for different industry segments

  • I wish it would give better reasoning why some sites or downloads are blocked, this can be frustrating to have happen if what you are trying to download is from someone/thing you know is a trusted source
  • Sometimes the program messes up the formatting of some webpages I'm trying to visit
  • Drive encryption can be a bit slow to load at times

Usability
Sophos
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.

Alternatives Considered
Sophos
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
Sophos
  • 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.
