What do you dislike about Sophos Mobile?

Sophos Mobile runs seemlesslybin the background on mobile devices that is may seem petty, and not a dislike but it would be nice if it sent more push notifications so users remember it is there and working for them. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Sophos Mobile solving and how is that benefiting you?

Mobile use in my company is very high and exceeds 8hrs a day in many cases. Solving, blocking, and suggesting updates to combat threats is our benefit and expectation. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Sophos Mobile?

I always like to feel safe and protected not only in my personal life but also with my work teams, and that is exactly the feeling that the Sophos Mobile software application gives me. When I found out it existed, I was very happy to know that I can also protect my mobile devices, including the phone, and what I like most is that it has no complications when installing and is very easy to manage. We use it on all our Android devices. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Sophos Mobile?

What I don't like is that as it performs thorough inspections in order to provide the greatest and best security, it blocks some links or even web pages that are safe; we can say that it is somewhat too sensitive when it comes to protection. Another thing I've noticed since I installed the Sophos Mobile application on the phone is that as the Sophos services start in the background, they consume a certain percentage of the battery, so now I live with the charger connected to the phone. Other than that, it is excellent software. We thank you for always working to provide users with services like these that make us feel safe, even with our work equipment, especially in this era of so many technological advances. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Sophos Mobile:

if you want to feel secure on all your mobile work devices including your phones what you are looking for and need is the Sophos Mobile Software application Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Sophos Mobile solving and how is that benefiting you?

The problems I have solved are that when installing or managing an application, I can do it even from a long distance without having to worry about having the devices on hand, I can do it remotely.

Additionally, it reassures me to know that it automatically checks web page links to prevent malicious downloads. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Sophos Mobile?

The administration platform of Sophos Central allows to unify the mobile devices that are granted to employees so that technology administrators can control and protect the entire organization on the same screen.

I have it installed on my mobile device downloaded from the Google Play Store and the phone is excellent, it protects networks, scanning against downloaded applications, web filters, scanning of QR codes, validation of device security; all in the same app.

And the most amazing thing is that it is free. It is worth downloading even from any platform. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Sophos Mobile?

For this I want to comment that the mobile application is a bit heavy, it takes several megabytes to the device; but it works fine after installed.

And another negative aspect, but that is still good for that, is that it does not allow synchronization with your devices if you use the Sophos Home console or simply have it alone without any subscription.

I think that a good point to improve would be to be able to manage it from the web, even though you are not registered with any corporation for administration. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Sophos Mobile:

The Sophos Mobile app offers protection for

devices, networks and applications for your devices

Android and iOS without compromising performance or duration

battery; for that part they will not have any kind of problems.

Sophos Mobile monitors the security status of the

device continuously to ensure that you are

notify if a device has been compromised so they can safely test it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Sophos Mobile solving and how is that benefiting you?

One of the problems I had before was that I needed to install several applications to improve work performance, for example:

To scan QR codes, it was an application.

to filter web pages, another application.

For antivirus and ramsonware protection, other protection and so on.

Thanks to Sophos mobile, all this can be done with the same application; which increases productivity and safety. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Sophos Mobile?

The Sophos mobile security application offers security and protection to mobile devices such as smart phones that are always a gateway to malware and hackers, so it was essential to have a help and it was Sophos mobile security with its benefits of constant monitoring That allowed the security we were looking for. It offers Secure Wi-Fi options with which internet browsing is much more secure, as well as email protection for opening emails without problems. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Sophos Mobile?

The Sophos mobile security application for Android has presented certain update failures for some of the company's Android devices, particularly I have not had problems since it works well, however I have learned of other equipment whose updates are not performed properly.

Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Sophos Mobile:

Sophos mobile security has worked perfectly on most of the computers to which it was urged, I believe that the fault has been generated by the Android system versions and by incorrect settings of the application, so I recommend the application. Really fast and the queries made, have responded quickly, which em makes you feel satisfied to have a good service, on the other hand the attention is first, hopefully many will copy the quality of service offered by Sophos.

What problems is Sophos Mobile solving and how is that benefiting you?

Sophos mobile security has been the fundamental piece to give protection to our mobile endpoint, since we have it we have strengthened the security in the devices that were vulnerable in the company, since the mobile devices were a gateway that was not being monitored by therefore it was easy prey for hackers, fortunately we were able to do the implementation just before any attack and now we are completely protected.

What do you like best about Sophos Mobile?

I like that it is a platform that brings everything you need for an MDM and more, it compete with VMware and citrix (MobileIron, Airwatch) and the best thing is that it brings a very attractive price, and it brings all the features that you may need, included: factory reset remotelly, geolocation, application control, web control, containers, and also the security layer (endpoint security) it can be used from the sophos central cloud console, or with an onpremise console, we used it a lot here, also we sell it and it is a very good solution Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Sophos Mobile?

We have used it and I do not see any flaws. Why? Because it is compatible with Windows, Android, iOS, devices, and it also supports several protocols (Samsung, knox, LG etc), then that's why I think it's a very good solution.and I don't see any negative point so far. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Sophos Mobile:

if you need a solution for take control of your user's devices, and you are thinking about BYOD strategies or teleworking it fits very well, besides the full protection of the endpoint (antivirus) it also give you the ability to admin very granular the policies that in your company you need (encryption, minimum security accepted, Whitelisted apps or blacklisted apps, control the use of camera inside any app and so on) i really recommend it you should give it a try Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Sophos Mobile solving and how is that benefiting you?

For BYOD strategies It works very well, additional it has security components for cell phones very nice, it has very granular control of functions in the devices allowing activating or deactivating the camera, activate or deactivate the use of the microphone in applications such as WhatsApp, among others functions, that makes it granular, also we used it for tasks of self-service in the users, in case the equipment is lost or even when the company needs to control the consumption of data in 4G on it.
