SonicWall TZ is firewall technology from Dell.SonicWallSonicWall TZ for speed and support2018-12-13T20:47:29.353ZI installed a SonicWall TZ as the main firewall for my client, a creative agency. This is their main internet security device within their environment and supports users using VPN, VoIP, and web servers. In addition, there are internal devices including a high capacity and speed file server for large image and video work. They currently have the TZ400 installed.,Documentation is clear and to the point.
The SonicWall keeps up with all the traffic in and out of the agency.
Good licensing options and some free services.,Without documentation, the interface and locations of features and settings can be confusing and not intuitive.
Would have liked a rack mount option for lower priced devices.
Would have liked to have some visualization options included without licensing fees.,8,Adding the VPN to the network, through SonicWall TZ, has allowed remote users to access the files they need remotely, without additional fees or convoluted methods, thus saving quite a bit of time.
This device is less expensive than the previous device in terms of licensing.
Due to the reputation of the company, this device is less likely to require hardware updates as quickly as competitors, thus saving my client from purchasing new equipment unnecessarily.,,Ubiquiti WLAN,Yes,Price

Third-party Reviews,I would have liked to have had a demo of the software of the SonicWall and other competitor products before we made our choice. This may have swayed us into a different product, if the user interface was easier to use and more intuitive. But, since we chose this option, we are satisfied with the interface and how to use the product.Benjamin HaleDell SonicWall The Best Firewall2018-12-06T20:25:50.132ZIn my organization, the series of Firewalls Sonicwall is used throughout the organization; we have several WAN links that go directly to the Sonicwall devices. It is responsible for filtering the entry and exit traffic, managing the LAN of the corporation and creating the VPN tunnels against other venues. Also through NETEXTENDER we are able to provide support while outside the network. In terms of the problems that have been solved, there are many. Before, employees spent a lot of time in social networks and entertainment and lost focus on the work activities. Now with this team you have shorter response times to requests.,Fault tolerance
scalability and growth
integration of services
Manufacturer's support 24 Hours,management is confusing has many items that could be improved to facilitate the work to the network administrator
in the diagnostic tool I would improve the response times, that is, if a ping test is required, it should be quick, since in cases of failures it is sought to minimize the impact as much as possible.
each function has a different license item, I would place a single license package for all team functions,9,the objectives were fulfilled in their entirety, the teams were bought with a function and ended up giving more and showing their full potential
