Sophos Secure Email Gateways, helped us to address encryption issues as well preventing phishing, scams, and malware. Adoption, setup, and use are very intuitive. The dashboard is easy to navigate. Also it helped the IT department to consolidate all the email policies in one console--we have better visibility of what is going on and the areas that we need to focus on. One of the features that we liked was VIP users, which helps to protect those important mailboxes from spoofing.
- Encryption
- User management
- Easy-to-use console
- They way they manage the licenses
- AD Sync Integration doesn't allow us to select multiple OUs

Sophos is one of the many vendors we utilize and offer to clients for Antispam/Outbound Encryption, and other email services. The Secure Email Gateway provides mail services both inbound and outbound, including scanning and filtering/quarantining in both directions. The service also provides an attachment scoring and testing feature to test against threats before delivering potentially bad email to end users.
- Inbound email, scanning and filtering of email.
- Outbound email scanning, as well as encryption for secure transfer.
- The attachment scanning and sandboxing of files to test danger level.
- Other vendors services are a bit more streamlined for end users and their quarantine digests.
- Administration does not allow for quite as many settings as other vendors.

As a company that provides software to hospitals and other medical facilities, security is extremely important to us. We use the Sophos Secure Email Gateways to filter all mail going to and from our organization. It is used to reduce spam, phishing attacks, and other annoying or malicious behavior in our organization. We use this across our entire organization in conjunction with Google G Suite software, including Gmail.
- Filters spam emails and keeps our inboxes clean, even keeps our spam folders in Gmail clear.
- Filters phishing emails that can be dangerous to our team's security.
- Sometimes it will filter emails that are not spam, and should not be considered spam.
- I have seen systems that handle mislabeled spam email better, in how they can be accessed by the end user.

The Sophos Secure Email Gateways is being used across the bank to address the email encryption purposes as well as for anti-spam and phishing; together with those we also employ the e-mail sandboxing feature. The product is also being customized to provide a workflow of sending certain encrypted emails.
- We could customize it to have a certain level of workflow. We manage to enforce certain email (based on key-phrases) to be quarantined before send it to the recipient. And the email needs to be approved (manually) before being released.
- For certain type (using regex) of email, we will encrypt it if it's sent outside our organization domain.
- Scalable
- Out of the box workflow approval of emails before being sent to recipients is a plus
- Using regex needs a certain expertise
- In regards to DLP, why not add context based and content based
