The Sophos suite from a user's perspective
What do you like best about the product?
The products were fairly simple to deploy. The Sophos team assisted with deployment and ensured it worked as expected before handing us off to our threat response team.
What do you dislike about the product?
One thing I disliked was how Sophos completely revamped their central dashboard. I'm able to navigate fine now, but midway through our contract, the whole look changed and categories were moved around. I also think the central dashboard can load a bit quicker.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Sophos is constantly monitoring our devices and network for anomalies or threats and taking action. They partner with our security team to resolve suspicious activities or compromises in our user's data. This gives us piece of mind and a barrier from malicious actors.
