Very odd way of setting up rules. If you forget to add a specific object, you need to redo the rule.

What do you like best about the product?
Cheaper option compared to other brands. Reliable way to do certain content filtering.
What do you dislike about the product?
If you forget to add a specific object, be it an address object or service object, you need to close the rule creator, add the object and start creating the rule from scratch again.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It does basic firewalling stuff well. Content filtering, NATting, IPSec, and it has a local netflow collector to monitor the top talkers and top sites.

There isn't anything I dislike, as we have only scratched the surface with all of the solutions and service offerings that SonicWall currently offers. We currently utilize their Network Security services but they also do cloud security and endpoint security as well.

SonicWall helps us safeguard our corporate network by adding an extra layer of security between our employees and our private network. Having this solution in place keeps our business data safe while allowing our employees the ability to work from anywhere.

Not a bad unit but could be better

  • November 09, 2022
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
It does have a really good range of configurable options and there is a wide range of models to suit various markets. The larger units are certainly something that you could use in a large data centre.
What do you dislike about the product?
The web interface is very dated, only one admin can be logged in at a time ( 6th gen and below) . The web content filtering is not granular enough for education customers. Application control is also an on or off setting you cannot have different settings for different groups.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
As a general firewall/router, it is OK, but I found it was unable to handle large volumes of deep packet inspection, which is required in most schools nowadays.
