Overall Satisfaction with Sophos XG Firewall

Currently i am using it as a primary device, I have a physical controller and central portal access to manage it from anywhere, i don't have any issue with this product, the support is good, they provide 24x7 support, and also interface is very user friendly, it's easy to use, easy to access access points from the firewall only it has the Access point controller includes itself.

Pros

  • Advance Threat Protection
  • VPN Support, WIFI support, Data Backup and notifications.
  • Web filtering, Applications support policy
  • High availability

Cons

  • When we add mac address into rule the internet goes down automatically for 1 minute, it should be fixed.
  • Sometimes policy tester gives a fake information, might be there is some network issue or other i don't know.
  • After some time, the firewall interface changes after updating.
  • This is the user-friendly device,
  • Auto notifications facilities available
  • Advanced-level security features available
  • I haven't faced any bad experiences with this, but sometimes the firewall stops working for 40 to 60 seconds when we update the policy.
Because this is a user-friendly interface, and anyone can use it there are multiple articles and guidelines available, it has advanced-level security features. they provide VPN solutions all the features are very practical, SSID MAC-based authentications web control, Firewall rules segregation of the rules and policies, On-premises Active directory single sign-on feature is also available.
