Find out what your peers are saying about Microsoft, Sophos, Check Point Software Technologies and others in Endpoint Encryption."The malware protection and the scanning features are most valuable in this solution."
"It's a straightforward solution."
"The advantage of Sophos SafeGuard stems from the fact that it is more secure than other products in the market."
"The product filters phishing emails."
"What I love most about Sophos SafeGuard is its user-friendly interface. My company has another software with a complex user interface versus Sophos SafeGuard, which is extremely easy to use."
"With Sophos, I only need to generate the password and give that to a user to be able to allow them to login to the admin page of the Endpoint and do whatever they need to do. The user cannot go ahead and uninstall it. It's kept us much more secure because of this. Should any event happen on a particular system, I'm given the username and the system IP address. I get notifications and can deal with issues right away."
"The monitoring features are easy to use."
"The most valuable feature is the synchronized security. It's a unique feature on the market at this time only offered by Sophos. As a reseller, we often win bids and get clients because of this unique trademark feature."
"The Central Management server."
"Having a DLP integrated with the encryption engine would be very good."
"Once you lock a server, you won't be able to install or put something on that particular server, but on the PC or machines, the lockdown feature is not there, and it is a query our company raised when we had to provide details for Sophos' review."
"As a tool, Sophos SafeGuard is not optimized."
"Technical support could be a bit better."
"There are times that this solution takes up too much memory that needs to be resolved. If it is not fixed it will definitely create issues in the future."
"What would make Sophos SafeGuard better than competitors is if its management console also includes firewall management. In the future, I want Sophos SafeGuard to be more scalable."
"You have to pay extra for some additional features, like data extraction. It would be nice if everything was available in one bundle."
"The security does not have 100% authentication."
"MacOS X is missing features."
