  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The addition modules that you can purchase to make life easier. Plus you can add just what you need unlike other firewall companies that force you to purchase packages.
Sonicwall makes it easy as you only buy what you need
What do you dislike about the product?
The only dislike i have is the cost of maintenance on the device for keeping it updated.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are using the sonicwall for 2 p2p VPN tunnels for remote sites and VPN access for end users to log in to the system and not have it RDP open to the outside world
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Before selecting your sonicwall always do your research. We have an NSA 2600 and 2 TZ 400 for our remote sites. If it was up to me i would have ordered an NSA for each site

SonicWALL Email Security

  • July 31, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The appliance was easy to install. It offers a lot of options to configure the appliance according to your exact need. It's also very easy to upgrade and their technical support is awesome. We had questions when we installed the appliance and contacted their support. They not only answered our question but went further and give us good configuration tips on our existing installation. They also followed up days later to see if the configuration they help us to apply was meeting our needs. We are very satisfied.
What do you dislike about the product?
We had to update the device when we received it. We would have expected it to be up to date right away. We also think that they can improve in auto documenting their interface to help configuration. Their technical support also reverted back to the old interface when they helped us configured the device. It prooved that they can improve documentation and overall interface or classification of the device features.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We replace our existing equipement that was not longer supported. We need a solution that would cover the same need at a price that still meet our budget. Sonic wall not only have a great product but their price is competitive.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Plan in advance if you want to implement SonicWall Email Security appliance. Do not hesitate to rely on professional resources to assist you to make sure you are efficiently and securely setup. Their technical support is great to assist you if you have any specify problem or configuration needs.

Sonicwall NSV - missing cloud native features

  • July 17, 2019
  • Review from a verified AWS customer

This product works like many other Firewall/VPN/Routers available through AWS marketplace and seems fine for that use. I had specifically looked at this one as Sonicwall advertise the ability to directly pass logs through to cloud watch. Unfortunately this is not the case with this product. Their NSA series (physical hardware) devices can, but there cloud native product NSV, running on the same firmware release does not have the feature available, or it is hidden from where it should be in the Manage-Network settings page. Seems very odd that their AWS native product cannot talk to AWS cloud watch, whereas their Hardware (on Premise) appliances can.

SonicWALL for comprehensive modern protection

  • April 25, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Our SonicWALL NSA4650 device in high availability mode gives near seamless failover across devices in the event of an outage on one device, which is fantastic. The device with the Advanced Gateway Security Suite offers a huge amount of protection - AV, IPS, Malware, Content filtering, application control, bandwidth management/QOS, as well as DPI-SSL - an absolute must nowadays. Capture ATP is a superb new addition to protect against unknown and zero day threats. Cloud management and reporting too is a new feature that I'm glad has arrived.
What do you dislike about the product?
The new Capture Security Centre interface on SonicWALL Cloud is a little new and rough around the edges. Some of the reporting detail is lacking, but it's being developed constantly and I'm told a new release is imminent.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Since changing from a traditional state full packet inspection firewall, we've realised just how much activity is going on in our network. The devices allows granular monitoring to highlight things we didn't know about and couldn't have done before. We now have a far higher standard of security to our networked devices, and we simply couldn't run without this device now. The SonicWALL protects us from almost all angles and seems to offer an awful lot of security from a single device.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Upgrade from an existing device and save a great deal of money on the list prices. Take your time to fully configure and understand the elements of the devices protection, and do not over-complicate your configurations.
