"The main features I have found best are the load balancer and ease of use."
"The security capabilities are okay."

"The stability of Sophos UTM is very good. The solution has been stable since Sophos took over Cyberoam which was the original company providing this solution."

"Smaller CR15 units don’t have a hard disc or built in IView software. These units could do with that feature."
"The VPN needs to be improved."

"There can be a delay when it comes to reaching out to technical support."
"The solution could be improved by adding cloud soundboxing."
