We use Sophos Phish Threat across the organization to ensure that people are aware of and acting appropriately with generalized phishing and spearphishing attacks. We set up a schedule to periodically send out phishing emails. When employees respond to them or click links in them, it takes them to training modules so they can know how to better respond, especially as scammers are getting even more clever in the ways they try to get money or spread viruses in our business.
  • Set up an easy-to-use low overhead system of training and protection.
  • Works through a single pane of glass when using other Sophos products.
  • It could be more robust.
  • Better variety of phishing emails.
If you're already using Sophos products, Phish Threat is a great addition to what you're already using. Because it's available under the same single pane of glass as most other Sophos things and can be added for a nominal cost to existing Sophos services, it's a great add-on. There are better single solution products out there, but those can cost more and/or they have to be serviced under a different logon and website.
  • Users are more aware of and react better to phishing emails.
  • We know who is the most gullible or susceptible to phishing campaigns.
We selected Phish Threat because it was an easy to use add-on for our existing Sophos solution. By having it integrated into our existing antivirus, email, and encryption suite it allowed for a single pane of glass management in addition to robust total reporting of what users and computers we need to be most concerned about.
Support is solid but not spectacular. While I haven't used support for Phish Threat specifically, this is a general rating for Sophos' support across the board. It could be easier to find the FAQ or other information I need, but when I've needed to reach out to support they've been good to work with.
