## Reviews

### "All in one" — 5.0/5

> **Anonymous User** | *29 October 2024* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: It's a really great product for managing branches and different clients in one admin platform, the advanced gateway security gives me a complete overview of all my deployments and makes easier the management of the firewalls
> 
> **Cons**: The ability to integrate older hardware,
> 
> multiple sites remote management is easy and keeps the original management interfaces

### "Good small office solution but not as durable as other products." — 3.0/5

> **Mark** | *28 April 2021* | Market Research | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: 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.
> 
> **Cons**: While 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.

### "SonicWall Security Firewall" — 5.0/5

> **Brian K** | *04 January 2024* | Food & Beverages | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: affordable, less expensive than the standard brand options
> 
> **Cons**: not as intuitive as other firewalls, security software suite is thin, can be difficult to find and modify some options
> 
> 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.

### "user comment" — 5.0/5

> **Umurhan** | *25 May 2021* | Sports | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The feature I like about this software is that it is reliable and fast connection can be established.
> 
> **Cons**: There 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.
> 
> 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.

### "A complete solution for mid-to-large organization" — 4.0/5

> **Muhammad** | *26 June 2023* | Biotechnology | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The product has phenomenal technical support team.
> 
> **Cons**: Its VPN solution may need improvement as the throughput gets impacted when the number of VPN users are transferring files across the network
