SonicWall Security Firewall
Not bad considering the price paid, but in my professional opinion, the cost savings are not worth it. Other firewall solutions are more robust, easier to setup, configure and manage. Overall, not bad for the money.
PROSaffordable, less expensive than the standard brand options
CONSnot as intuitive as other firewalls, security software suite is thin, can be difficult to find and modify some options
Reason for choosing Sonicwall Network Security Manager
price, affordability. Business had a limited budget.

user comment
The fact that Sonicwall Network Manager is very expensive as a license was one of the main problems for us. In addition, users were constantly experiencing problems during the disconnection or connection stages, and this was constantly causing us problems.
PROSThe feature I like about this software is that it is reliable and fast connection can be established.
CONSThere is no topic that I like very little, although I use it both as a user and as an administrator, I could not see a drawback.
Reason for choosing Sonicwall Network Security Manager
Due to the price difference between the two, the cheaper company was selected.
Reasons for switching to Sonicwall Network Security Manager
The license fee is very expensive. And the really high fee for a vpn program is due to its low performance.

Good small office solution but not as durable as other products.
The sonicwall interface is easy to navigate and offers quite of bit of functionality. You can do everything through a web interface and licensing and backup are a breeze when you take advantage of mysonicwall.com. We use the sonicwall applicate in a small office and for the price and features we are quite happy with it. Firmware updates have not been an issue for us and keeping things up to date is pretty straight forward.
CONSWhile the VPN options are plentiful we have had some issues with sonicwall keeping the connections up in some cases. There are multiple ways to configure VPN and because of how we had to do it our connection sometimes goes down and we have to log into the device and stop / start the VPN connection in order for it to get connected again.
Reason for choosing Sonicwall Network Security Manager
Sonicwall was cheaper for this use case and gave us the features we required.
Reasons for switching to Sonicwall Network Security Manager
We scaled down the organization and no longer needed such an expensive product.

Safe network
One of the safest soltions on the market, very hard to fail. Have been used over many years with minimal numer of incidents.
PROSVery easy and visible way configuring a safe network. Many great dashboards, and quick information access and full logging. Easy deployment of networks through multiple interfaces. Integration with other tools. Access to security definitions from the Cloud.
CONSInitial configuration is time consuming and the system is a bit pricy.

Very good option to protect your network
It is interesting, because we have been using it to protect the network, and also as a VPN manager, it has their own management appliance, with clients which we can install it on the computers, or you can choose to use the directly Windows configuration. Therefore, it covers L2TP, PPTP, L2F and SSL VPN, which gave us a bunch of options to choose.
PROSIt is a robust solution, with so many features, roles, and options to configure and customize a firewall solution for your own network, working with various different protocols, covering the most used on the market, including a VPN based on different procotols.
CONSIt is difficult to find some options inside it, is not intuitive, to block a site, IP or file type, you will spend some time to understand it, need to be a midtier on network skills, not a product for beginners.

A complete solution for mid-to-large organization
The product has phenomenal technical support team.
CONSIts VPN solution may need improvement as the throughput gets impacted when the number of VPN users are transferring files across the network

Good Solution for the Small Business -
We have been able to implement more security for our more advanced IP tunnels and manage what users can use VPN while away from the office during these hard times
PROSThis software offers all essential needs for the small business. It’s able to more than what is expected for software of this price but above average IT knowledge is required to use everything properly
CONSWhile having minor issues and bugs with the system it took there team and a third party IT company to resolve the issue. Hoping to see customer service improve as this issues come up. Still happy with there tenacity to resolve the issue

Decent Network Security Manager
The reporting is quite good as is the content filtering.
CONSWe had to pay additional amount to enable the reporting and that was a bit of a set-back.

This makes it easier to work from home
I like the fact that I can get secure access to information on our network when working from home and I am comfortable that no one is getting the information they shouldn't have.
CONSThe thing I like least is it does have a small delay which is to be expected for the type of software it is.

No convence
Poco que decir, no sorprende o llama la atención en ningun área.Quizar el hecho de poder montar alta disponibilidad sin comprar un extra de licencias
CONSExisten otros productos más intuitivos y faciles de gestionar e integrar en esta gama con mucho más potencial
