Sophos Endpoint Protectionの評判・口コミ 全6件

What do you dislike?

OSX Crashes and versions that cause kernel panics. Poor malware detection, doesn't always catch the gambit we have thrown at it.

What do you like best?

Bare-bones and effective, Sophos Anti-Virus. There aren't any extras. Does exactly what you would expect. Updates are fluid and often.

Recommendations to others considering the product

Be sure the malware detection meets your need, and if using OSX run a gambit on the version of your OS and endpoint version that is most commonly used. We found certain matches cause kernal panics and some also do not have great malware detection.

What do you dislike?

Product is too diverse at times, smaller scale usage and distribution would be better.

What do you like best?

This enterprise security system is capable of protecting a wide variety of devices and OS'. One product serves Windows, Linux, OS X, android, etc.

What do you dislike?

Simple administration console is sometimes too basic, particularly when pulling status reports and dicing analytical data. Limited ecosystem (unlike competitors) reduces value when managing multiple operating system platforms.

What do you like best?

Solid solution that is competitive in features and functionality with other platforms. Benefits include ease of deployment and clear overview of enterprise status. Sophos support has been excellent in handling issue escalation and resolution.

What do you dislike?

Horrible QA for releasing new features. Their update servers are regularly crashing, or simply not accessible. Their endpoints will only update 75% of the time.

Their Support Organization is horrible at responding in a timely fashion, they're poorly trained, and often respond with generic canned FAQ pages that are irrelivant to the issue.

Their dashboard has regular outages.

Their user management is simply not scalable. No means of bulk removing old devices/users from the dashboard. The results are disastrous over a long period of time - requiring a concerted effort on the part of the IT staff to simply maintain accurate reporting on current users.

We gave up a long time ago trying to reconcile actual users and installations through the Sophos Dashboard due to duplicates or erroneous username/hostname reporting.

Their automated email alerts to admins are inconsistent, often times not reporting threats, or missing days at a time.

No option for catering what type of messages you want reported via email. It's all or nothing.

They lack SAML admin controls for logging into the dashboard. There's no password rules (expiration, age, lockout, etc).

What do you like best?

The fact that their product is SaaS based, and a multi platform solution for OS X and Windows was the primary draw for us in 2013. At the time Sophos was the only option on the market that hit those two criteria. Their virus definitions on a good day will block/find most threats.

Recommendations to others considering the product

They're a good product, and better than any of the other alternatives on the market for SaaS based multiplatform AV. I'd suggest giving them a look despite all the issues I've detailed in my review.

At the end of the day if you can get Sophos on all your endpoints, you'll more than meet the AV requirements in your security stack. Their redeeming features are their AV definitions and extremely low percentage of false positive reporting.

What do you dislike?

Implementation in our specific business is not optimized currently.

What do you like best?

Email filtering, web filtering and hardware firewall all in one single unit

Recommendations to others considering the product

Covers many security requirements in one unit, very useful for corporate IT

What do you dislike?

The need for agents running on the system, which increases the attack footprint available to the bad guys.

What do you like best?

Fewer false positives with more information on the threat report.

Recommendations to others considering the product

If your security software is constantly at the top of your CPU utilization list, it's time to switch.

That's why I did and I'm happy I did.

What do you dislike?

When users experience blocked items it's not clear how to authorize the blocked items. I had a user who had two legitimate PDFs blocked and there was no clear way to authorize them. A pop-up probably would have helped.

What do you like best?

Sophos is extremely easy to deploy and manage. The console design is intuitive and clear in purpose. The endpoint client takes almost new resources on the workstation, which makes my users very happy. The automated reporting is robust and valuable.

What do you dislike?

Sophos Endpoint Security does not have very robust application control. A few competitors in the market have a lot more customizations for application control. A pro and a con, is that due to the low false positive rate, Sophos also has a somewhat higher false negative rate, and is not as strict as some other antivirus applications out there.

What do you like best?

Sophos Endpoint Security does not impact system performance nearly as much as competitors. This allows a business to be productive, and not worry or be concerned about system performance when doing day to day optimizations. One drawback to the low impact on performance is that full system scans may take awhile to be completed. Sophos has a very low false positive rate when finding malware.

Recommendations to others considering the product

Sophos Endpoint Protection is good baseline protection from malware. However, other products seem to be excelling in this area Bit9/CarbonBlack, Cylance, and Malwarebytes.

What do you dislike?

I dislike the upgrading or patching of the main server itself. maybe its my version, but it seems tough and not simple always.

What do you like best?

I like the fact that the end point software can control other aspects of the users device and not just worry only about AV Defs or scans. Web control & USB control are two of those things.
