Sophos, you've lost the plot!

Getting really hacked off now with Sophos. Support is fading into oblivion, mistakes and poor product releases marring products and now customer care that's definitely not 'Ronseal'.  

Recent call to tech support to fix problems in Sophos Puremessage resulted in no response for a couple of days. Then an engineer finally picks up and responds, gives a couple of answers then disappears off the radar for 2 days. No matter what we did, we could not get anyone at Sophos to respond. Even raising another ticket via email resulted in NO action.  

Fire an email off to my account manager - it bounces, they left last November. Great! Perhaps someone should pick up their emails or at least contact the customers to re-assign to someone else.  

Fire off an email to Customer Care - low and behold, the original technician answers an email and......then goes dead again. Get a response back from Customer Care and they chased and then 'closed' their case. Asked not to close until we have a satisfactory answer and get back - quoted from their email "but that is not the role of Customer Care. Customer care is for licensing queries" - what? I think my command of the english language still interprets Customer Care as 'caring for the customer' not 'licensing'..  

Come on Sophos, get a grip. Please!

  • Matt,

    I would suggest not using Puremessage at all and only using the Sophos UTM as an email gateway. You can just purchase the "Email Protection" license if needed. However "Endpoint protection" will greatly protect your exchange server itself. Never allow your exchange server direct access to the untrusted interface. If you have a mail relay that is external to your network, you can configure UTM accordingly.
