Suppress popup notifications
It will make my users not hate the product. We just installed Sophos on our Macs and these pop-up messages are making my users MAD. This can be solved by user preference to suppress pop-notification (particularly if logging is still active).
I will have to find another solution if this persists until renewal time.

enable domain search on groups
We have a number of customers who are adding in groups of computers from multiple workgroups/domains. When you import these, the users are captured in Cloud as "domain\name" but groups are only captured as "name".
This means that searching for groups can be complicated. One example is a customer who has 5 companies. Each company has an "HR" group. In Cloud, this will show up as "HR" 5 times rather than Company1\HR, Company2\HR etc. which makes searching and reporting very complicated.
I know we don't support multi domain sync but simply capturing and working with the full group name would…

Show scan status in events
If I start a scan remotely (Scan now), it is not visible if the scan has been started and when the scan is finished. Would be great to see the start and finish time as an event in the Cloud Console.

Re-Assign Devices to Users
Once a machine has been added to the Cloud console, a re-assignment to a different user is not possible (at least I didn't find this option).
Please activate a button or drop-down menu, which allows admins to easily re-assign the machine to a different user.5 votes -

Installer Deployment - Update Download
Partner Request.
We had a roll-out of 30 Mac's (OSX) and each time, once the installer started the process needs to download additional 120MB, which x30 means 3.6GB of additional "installer data".
Please find a better way to handle this, by offering an optional "complete-full-installer" with all updates included (of that day/week or month) that can then be deployed locally to all machines, for example with a third party tool and doesn't require to download that many data on each machine.
Thanks.10 votes -

Ability to gather logs remotely to be sent to administrator email

Ability to select option to reinstall client
I would like to request a binary removal tool that is part of the client side installation that can only be triggered by the administrator. This utility will trigger a thorough uninstall and reinstall. This will greatly help situations where there are problematic installations and remote access is not possible.

We do not want service accounts to be synched with Sophos Cloud
To reconcile our user base with Sophos anti-virus. We do not want service accounts to be synched with Sophos Cloud. Only specific User OU’s in Active Directory.
When asked;
"Firstly, would you want to specify base DN(S) or edit the LDAP query?"
They have advised;

Multicustomer Tenant/Account [MSP Concept]
Partners are asking for a single cloud account (not on the partner portal), where they can manage multiple customers.
Which I guess would mean that the licenses should be taken and then assigned from a pool, that multiple active directory structures can be synchronized for each customer on the same account and not only users can be put in to groups, but also devices, in order to not confuse the customer machines.
The installers and provisioning mechanisms must be adapted as well, in order to aim the proper group (customer-group).
...Sounds like a challenge and a lot of work :-)9 votes -
Ability to send messages to managed machines
From within the Sophos Cloud product, it'd be really useful to be able to post notifications to an end user machine. For example "There will be an unusually large AV update on Thursday - please allow time for this to complete"
or
"You can now get corporate email on your Mobile Device - go to intranet.local/BYOD for more information"
