Rating: 8 out of 10
IncentivizedUse Cases and Deployment Scope
We have used Sophos SG, XG and XGS Firewalls in our environment for over a decade now. They have all the essential features as a very competitive price point. I especially recommend them for SMB's as they provide a great value while keeping costs low.
Pros
- Security Overall
- SD-WAN
- VPN
- Sync with Sophos Central
Cons
- Management takes a little to get used to. The workflows are backwards to everything else we have ever used.
Likelihood to Recommend
Great for securing our Datacenter as well as smaller branches. They have a great selection of Firewalls for all sizing requirements. We place them in locations with hundreds of employees or just a handful. They all work together great and the SD-WAN feature is good for connecting branches together. Couple this with MTR/MDR and you have a solid security foundation where packets can be analyzed from the firewall to the endpoints.
