Case study: Northern Engraving

When Northern Engraving was spending too much time managing its existing web solution, it turned to the Sophos Web Appliance to provide the visibility and reporting it needed. Switching to Sophos at the email and endpoint at the same time led to significant cost savings, reduced IT administration time and proactive protection of all network tiers.

"We needed something easy to implement and administer and Sophos really fitted the bill -- I never would have thought it possible to deploy three product lines in one business week during business hours"
