I think I want to cry

What is this? What has happened to such a great product? 

Setup was horrible. It used to be so simple, setup basic networking during install. Once I finally got in after having to change my network around, I still haven't figured out how to setup a simple nat.

I work for a tech company that I used to throw your name out in our meetings all the time on how we should be doing things.

I thought esets new version was a pain.

  • Hi,
    if you come from UTM background you consider this product still in beta and very good for home use. If you come from a cyberoam background you think this is an excellent release.
    So much is still broken or not finished and as a security product it is not up to any corporate standard. Sophos might be selling this product as the way of the future firewall security, but this version is just ruining their reputation which they will have a very hard time recovering from. I do realise that these forums are a for user to user support, but the occasional visit by somebody who knows what is being fixed and when would help improve user/customer confidence.
  • I would also challenge it being good for 'home use' at this point. XG brakes way to many things and in order to get things working we need to disable things like HTTP scanning & turn off web filter. I am hard at work looking for a replacement product for my home. I thought UTM was bad for the home but at least you could just create Regex entries to get things like Netflix & gaming consoles working without completely turning of security for those devices. I am with you Sophos is very much giving us a sour taste and that's going to be hard to reverse.
