Overall Satisfaction with SonicWall TZ

The SonicWall TZ was being used as the main firewall for all the organization. It was used to solve our firewall needs and securing our network.
  • Easy to administrate
  • Outstanding uptime
  • Easy to manage rules
  • No application based controls
  • User based rules were hard to setup
  • Routing can be complex
  • Neither positive nor negative on ROI
  • Maintenance cost is similar to what we paid for other solutions
  • Easy to administer in house so no need to pay for consultants
SonicWall TZ is a much better product. Easier to administer and use and much more elaborate in its rules. I would choose it over Watchguard any day.
I believe it is well suited for small to medium companies where they don't have that many users and need basic firewall functionality. That way some of the controls it is missing will not affect security as much and it will be able to handle everything else well.
