Sophos Helps Partners to Simplify Wi-Fi Protection With Addition of Sophos Wireless to the Sophos Central Management Platform - Seite 2

Sophos Wireless uses the proven range of Sophos Access Points which can also be managed on-premise via Sophos SG UTM and XG Firewall; key features for wireless setup and control include:

• At-a-glance dashboard with network and client connectivity data
• Traffic usage insights based upon Web categorization
• Easy multi-site management and setup
• Visual network planner and Google Maps integration

"This is a great step forward in simplicity for partners managing customer security or networks," said Dan Russell, chief technology officer at Pine Cove Consulting. "Offering customers the choice of on-premise appliance or cloud-based wireless management significantly eases the administrative burden for my business and allows me to offer services to customers who are not yet ready to replace their existing UTM or Firewall but need to upgrade their wireless network protection. This simple install and remote management through the Sophos Central-Partner dashboard allows me to introduce Sophos to protect the network seamlessly."

The specialized partner dashboard allows partners and managed service providers (MSPs) to manage and configure wireless settings, distributes licenses, add new customers and provides a real-time perspective on all customer activity. The single pane of glass dashboard also shows all Sophos Central services their customers subscribe to making cross and upsell opportunities clear and helping partners drive recurring revenue.

Sophos sells exclusively through its channel of more than 20,000 resellers worldwide and is dedicated to the growth and success of partners. As part of the new program and Sophos' "channel first, channel only" business strategy, the company offers partners sales consulting training and certification, co-branded marketing assets, 24/7 support and in-depth Sophos Central dashboard training to help build the skills and expertise of its partners.
