We utilize the SonicWall NSA 4600 as an all-in-one firewall/security/VPN appliance for our organization of 5000 users and gigabit internet. We utilize IPS, DPI, content filtering, VPN, mail filtering, and more. We currently run in an HA configuration for active failover. This is used over our entire organization, and it solves the problem of needing a secure connection to the internet and allowing secure connections from the internet to several locally hosted servers.

We compared the FortiGate to Sonicwall and continued with Sonicwall as we were a mid-size school where the Sonicwall was performing adequately, and the learning curve was steep to switch platforms. The Sonicwall offered everything the FortiGate did, and was not as costly, both in the appliance and in licensing.

SonicWall NSA is an enterprise firewall worth trusting!
The SonicWall NSA Series provides firewall protection at each of our branch locations. The NSA series specifically has the hardware power to acommodate the number of active connections we have at each branch. Combined with the comprehensive gateway security license, SonicWall NSA provides a solid first line of defense of whatever bad stuff our users may try to download.
- Relatively inexpensive compared to some of the higher-end products, like Palo Alto Networks.
- Easy to set up, as the SonicWall NSA interface is consistent across all models.
- The logging interface is voluminous and difficult to get quick and good information from.
- SonicWall NSA is trying to mimic Palo Alto Network's investigative features but falls far behind.

- Easy purchase for each branch we spin up.
- Quick deployment time which doesn't require an outside vendor to install.
SonicWall NSA series interface is way better than either Watchguard or Checkpoint. Even though people want to dismiss SonicWall NSA, they have the advanced features of its competitors, but with the easy interface. With all things being equal, I consider Palo Alto Networks to be the most preferred enterprise firewall, with SonicWall NSA being second and the rest trailing far behind.

It's a solid device series I recommend to various clients. It can be as simple or complex as necessary, reliable, and a cost effective solutions for small to mid sized businesses. The user console is easy, installing certs and licenses is also easy to do. Adding WAPs or other devices is easy. The units are well made and can be rack mounted or stand alone (ideal for some smaller clients).
- Ease of configuration. Easy to add WAPs, etc.
- Reliable.
- Ideal with smaller businesses. Would have to examine for more complex needs of larger businesses.
- Scalability might be an issue for super large organizations.

- Saved money on implementation and administration staff.
- Covered the sophisticated needs of many organizations.
Looked at a variety of offerings from Cisco. For larger organizations, a good route to go. For smaller that need just a little bit more than residential equipment, or even to have the some solid performance and configurations (smaller businesses) Sonicwall is a great way to go. Some of limitations of WAP installs was a bit more challenging, but overall everything worked pretty well and easy to maintain in a cost effective package.
