What do you like best about the product?
In addition to the reliable firewall basics, the remote user vpn options at no additional cost makes this a solid choice for any business. The cloud management and local management ease access anywhere. Filtering websites or countries, or the many predefined threat patterns is simple to implement. Very advanced for the cost, great value.

More AI smart alerting and issue detection is likely in the roadmap. It would improve the abundant logs for review.

Border security and remote use vpn

Sophos Firewall Appliance: A Robust, Intelligent Security Solution for Modern Network Environments

  • April 24, 2025
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Sophos Firewall strikes an excellent balance between powerful features and ease of use. Its centralized management via Sophos Central, intuitive interface, and seamless integration with other security layers make it a go-to tool in our daily operations. The frequency of use is high—we rely on it continuously for monitoring, policy enforcement, and threat management. The implementation is easy and straightforward
What do you dislike about the product?
While we use the system frequently and appreciate its capabilities, some advanced configurations—especially around traffic shaping and custom rules—require deeper expertise and time. Additionally, support responsiveness during urgent scenarios can vary, and the licensing costs may be challenging for smaller or resource-constrained institutions.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Sophos Firewall effectively addresses key network security challenges, including intrusion prevention, malware threats, unsafe web access, and inconsistent user policy enforcement. By centralizing threat management, simplifying policy control, and offering deep visibility into traffic patterns, it helps us maintain a secure, compliant, and efficient network environment. The ease of integration with endpoint tools and high frequency of use ensures minimal downtime, faster incident response, and better resource allocation—benefiting both our IT team and end users.
