In order have Secure Mobile Connection to the company (permanent/automatically or just on demand or simply per App VPN). A Sophos owned VPN Client, integrated in Sophos Mobile App or even standalone VPN App would be needed. The VPN should at least work together with XG Firewall/UTM Remote VPN.

Add SMB/CIFS support to SSW so that users can directly read/write encrypted documents on a file server.

From customer:

"What I would like in my report is something that I can use to see details of our assets, so we can upload details into our Asset management software.

I would like to have the following in the report along with what is already in the report: IMEI, Reported phonenumber, SIMCarrierNetwork, Model

If possible, take out the following: GroupName, RegistrationDate, LastNativeSyncDate, Managed, Compliant, Ownership.

ability to have the device to check in with their locations on interval times and track the location. so there is a location report or history of the device has been.

The Sophos Secure Email is able to sync subfolders from Exchange on iOS but not on Android.
Please implement this feature on Android.

the ability to see the global addressbook in the contacts as an own folder without searching for the name in the "all contacts" folder and click on "search in global adress"

Issues with Badge\notifications on Sophos email app – Sophos email app doesn’t show new emails\badge count on iOS, would be great to have this as a standard function considering that every other app out there has this ability

Instead of whitelisting/blacklisting specific apps, why not be able to allow/block certain categories of apps instead? So that you are able to block games but allow productivity apps. Trojanized and malicious apps could be blacklisted as default.

Add possibility to use exchange 2013 shared mailboxes

As requested by some working councils in Germany, SMC EAS Proxy can be used to block e-mail delivery after the working hours. Sample: E-Mail to mobile devices will just be send 7am-7pm. After 7pm mail delivery will be stopped via EAS Proxy. The profile remains, no mail will be deleted

When a device gets non-compliant today we have the chance to send a "lockdown" profile. Could be useful if it is compliant again to have the possibility to have an automatic remediation that delete the "lockdown" profile.

It would be nice if the admin can restrict the export of contacts to the native phone book according to the following guide lines:
- User is allowed to export the whole contacts data
- User is allowed to only export contact name and phone number
- User is not allowed to export any contact data

Furthermore they seem to provide a possibility to have the native contacts imported into the Mail container app - so they have 2 different phone books within the mail container: a private and a corporate one.

Wouldn't this be a possible addition to SSE?

In the compliance rules, mandatory apps can be enforced. But unfortunately, this does not work, if the admin wants to enforce a certain minimum version. User often ignore to update their apps, which can cause problems in operation of a large device fleet.

Allow the admin to configure the home screen layout on iOS devices

It would be good if you could access internal websites through the corporate browser, routing authentication and web requests through Sophos Mobile Control server(s) to the internal web server host(s).
This would mean a massive benefit to using the Corporate Browser.
As currently the existing corporate browser has no benefits to rather just locking down the existing internal device browser on the phone.

I have a number of customers asking for a widget in SMC 5.0 for Sophos Mobile Security. Would it be possible to view things like viruses detected, PUA's blocked etc for those Android devices that have Mobile Security installed?

Failing that could there be an option to have it as a report template perhaps?

As it is available for iOS already, it would be great to have the Call Identifier Feature in the android Version of Sophos Secure Mail. (Share the business contacts (just) with the telephone app.)

Like Gmail, when an user changed his Windows Password, have a notification to explain there is a synchonization problem.
Invite the user to change his password instead of go to his mails accounts.

Option to display all emails in conversation mode as e.g the Windows Phone 10 email app does
