Sophos Firewalls appreciated for user-friendly interface and ease of use
What do you like best about the product?
We have used Sophos firewalls for 10 years now and have continued to use them because of their ease of use, their great licensing structure, and their interface.
What do you dislike about the product?
My only dislike about Sophos Firewall is the support that we receive. We have had some good experiences but sometimes we run into issues where techs don't have good knowledge of the product, and they refuse to escalate tickets. Otherwise we love the product and the hardware and have had great success with it.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Having a solution that was scalable to multiple sites was a big factor in choosing a product. Sophos Firewall has the ability to act standalone but can also be deployed in HA, and then you can aggregate multiple sites into Sophos Central for easier management of multiple locations. This was a huge benefit we found for using Sophos Firewall.

Que n’aimez-vous pas à propos de the product?
La licence via Sophos Central est compliquée.
Quels sont les problèmes que the product résout, et en quoi cela vous est-il bénéfique?
Connexion de petits sites sans raccordement direct à la fibre optique. Sophos RED est idéal pour cela.
Intuitive and Solid Firewall
What do you like best about the product?
Sophos Firewall is incredibly intuitive and makes it easy for less experienced administrators to pick up. It offers good value for the features that it offers which is especially important for small and medium-sized enterprises like us, such as the free integration with Sophos Central that enables streamlined management in the cloud.
What do you dislike about the product?
The log viewer only allows us to view logs over a very short period of time. To view older logs, we can only do so via the command-line interface. The level of customer support in our region also varies depending on the time that the ticket was opened as Sophos rotates the support between 2 countries, making it a mixed experience at times.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The ease of use shortens the time needed to tweak the rules and policies when the need arises, such as when new applications are installed in the network or when user access issues occur. The robust security features also ensure that less time is spent to address new security threats. This is especially important for companies that have a limited number of network administrators.

Sophos Firewalls: Good Value and Great for SMB's
What do you like best about the product?
It is a very cost effective solution. It packs a lot of value with features. The obn-boarding is very smooth and good for organizations that do not have a lot of IT expertise in-house available. Good for both Medium sized and small business alike.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sophos Admin Consoles are klunky and a little disjointed. Their workflows are not like anything else on the market, so it takes time to get used to it. It is designed by Engineers for Engineers. You spend a lot of time jumping around to completely different areas in the console for dealing with a single issue.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Securing our Datacenter and Branches. We removed our MPLS network and implement SD-WAN between our branches. There is good endpoint security, web filtering and application control along with Sophos Central integration for cloud management.
Sophos Firewall review
What do you like best about the product?
The integration with Sophos Central is clean and makes remote management really straightforward. The UI is intuitive for most day-to-day tasks, and the security features (like web filtering, IPS, and application control) are solid out of the box. I also like how it ties in with other Sophos products—it’s clear the ecosystem was designed to work well together.
What do you dislike about the product?
I'd like for Sophos Central to be able to connect to the firewalls more reliably. I find myself never really using Central and just interfacing with the firewall directly as it's more responsive. Certain rules and NAT translation rules are a little hard to keep track of when linking to rules.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
RED tunnels and site to site VPN quite effective.

La gestion centrale, l'interface intuitive, Outil de cybersécurité très utile et pratique. Facilite la surveillance et le contrôle des services réseau. Permet un contrôle très pratique pour les services de réseau local et Wan.
Que n’aimez-vous pas à propos de the product?
Les mises à jour de version sont très fréquentes et lors de certains changements, elles ne conservent pas ces configurations. La section NAT et SDWAN, il est répétitif de devoir sélectionner les réseaux d'origine. Nous avons eu la mauvaise expérience qu'en redémarrant les sophos pour n'importe quelle raison, ils ne démarrent plus et l'équipement est diagnostiqué comme RMA.
Quels sont les problèmes que the product résout, et en quoi cela vous est-il bénéfique?
La protection contre les menaces actuelles, sauvegarder l'information. Contrôle de la consommation productive d'Internet.
8 years of Sophos with firewalls, REDs and End Point Solutions
What do you like best about the product?
It's not the easiest solution to setup when You start to work with it, but appears You just have to get used to logic that Sopgos uses and then everything starts to flow. Even if we get some roadblocks, local support really helps in daily questions and urgent cases. And overall bang for the buck is really attractive.
What do you dislike about the product?
Some UI features and some UI visually has to step up compared to competitors. Of course there are even worse vendors with even worse UI, but it needs to step up.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
First of course - security. Helps to protect from outside and inside risks.
Secondary - helped to connect our branches to main main office without need to buy expensive VPNs from ISP vendors.
