Sophos UTM is a firewall option, from the UK company Sophos.https://dudodiprj2sv7.cloudfront.net/product-logos/YS/pm/3JWD9S5MW3QO.pngSophosSophos UTM is a perfect fit2018-06-08T20:20:36.217ZWe implemented Sophos UTM across our entire organization over 5 sites and to our entire remote salesforce. I feel Sophos has provided us the protection and security that an organization needs in this era of threats and attacks.
I am happy to report that we have had no breaches or incidents since its implementation.,Sophos was very easy to deploy.
The management console keeps us up to date with all the happens of the product.,We have yet to be able to implement the mobile device management - I'm not sure if that's because it is difficult, or just a daunting task.,9,Sophos came in right on budget for our needs - perfect ROI
Security is like life insurance - you can always buy more, but finding that sweet spot where you are covered just right is key.,Kaspersky Endpoint Security and Symantec Advanced Threat Protection,JIRA Service Desk, KayakoJon ShurtliffSophos UTM the firewall for Network Engineers2017-04-26T16:45:32.738ZWe used Sophos UTM to provide a common manageable firewall infrastructure across over a dozen sites across the globe. It allowed us to protect the sites with URL filtering and anti-virus protection and create a global VPN for a competitive cost. The interface was easy to learn for our engineers and the central management tools helped me monitor the entire estate.,IPSEC VPNs are very easy to set up and I managed to get them to work with several different manufacturers on the other end.
The user interface is reasonably clear and easy to search complex configurations.
High availability is very easy to set up.,When they were Astaro the customer service left a lot to be desired and the hardware could have some quality control problems. Support got much better when Sophos took over.,10,It allowed me to add additional controls to my internet access, reducing my malware risks and allowing me to control access to websites easily.,Cisco ASA and SonicWall TZKarim KronfliSophos UTM in a glance2017-04-17T21:09:03.759ZSophos UTM and Sophos XG Appliances, deliver great security along with affordable pricing for every company. Sophos is great as a visionary company, keeping up with IT Managers' requests for features within their products (specially Sophos SG Appliances and XG NGFWs). Their hardware addresses a constant situation where many competitors fail; they are scalable, and tough (SSDs Hard Drives, and Intel latest generation processors is about it). Recently I found out an opportunity for us, as a company, to deliver something that many competitors fail at, HIGH AVAILABILITY with just 1 license. While other vendors, try to squeeze the companies for every penny, Sophos address that issue, and is honest about it: They deliver High Availability in Active/Passive mode, with two identical hardware options, with just one license (with their main competitor, you MUST buy two licenses, which makes the solution more expensive). Sophos is honest, with their products and technology.,Scalability, if you needed HA in Active/Passive Mode, but need more throughput during certain periods when the parameters change (i.e. number of users, or Internet bandwidth growth) you can always license the second one and it will behave as a Cluster in Active/Active mode in just 2 minutes, with no downtime.
Delivers great WebGUI management, which is easily understandable by every IT Professional
Worldwide RMA, gosh! If you have any kind of issue with your hardware, Sophos will deliver it to your business door, at no cost, with a return label for you to ship the damaged or faulty device back. No questions asked.
Constant visionary technology, with out of this world new features.,Better standard support, it used to be great, now, not so much (for paying customers, that only aquired the Hardware)
Better wireless solution, there is always room for that, now that everybody needs robust wifi, even at home!
Faster and more robust wireless Access Points, or different vendor-like compatibility.,10,Great ROI when we decided to change all of our previous UTM products to this, since our team got trained, and the support cases hit rock bottom - almost NO support needed.
Negative impact when we've been asked about a 300 Access Point solution for several projects and we can't deliver a robust wifi solution managed by the UTM.
Great positive impact when our company decided to invest in Sophos by representing them, and we created a very strong goodwill partnership, and almost in every LatAm country everybody knew who Sophos is. Great advertising and marketing campaigns on the Sophos side.,Untangle NG Firewall and Fortinet FortiGateJuan Carlos Sanchez PignalosaSophos UTM - Almost unbeatable2017-06-15T14:57:45.001ZSophos was used as our primary firewall and unified threat management. We had two Sophos units installed for fail over purposes.,Anti-spam is better than most standalone products and has a very low false positive rating
Firewall rules are easy to set up and configure with a nice user-friendly interface
Free VPN capabilities which does no require a subscription unlike most other firewalls,Support is great but sometimes slow but other than that the product is the best in the market,10,It has done nothing but improve security.,Dell Sonicwall,PRTG Network MonitorVerified UserSophos UTM Home Version2016-07-26T13:40:05.234ZI am currently using Sophos UTM Home Version to protect my connection at home.,Daily Reporting is a great asset
I love the free AV that I can deploy to my desktops and laptops at home.,Make it easier to setup port forwarding and rules to allow certain things to go thru.
More common settings to port forward and or whitelist things such as IPHONES, DROID's.
When you allow a port to go thru have it automatically add the firewall rule,7,NA
