When properly configured it does its job, until it doesn't
UI is not friendly, simple things like NAT or port forwarding are overly complicated to set up
Honestly, Sonicwall is not a product we use by choice, normally it is the relic of a client's former MSP. It does secure a client's network, and while it is robust it is not user friendly
The general federation of SonicWALL appliances and the way they've set their website is generally done well. The usual broken links between products are dismissable given the concept is there.
Downside of using SonicWall is the support.
General firewall protection, end-point protection, and antiphishing.
The product is considered among best of breed for high end security appliances
Security is only as good as your ability to implement it. Despite my experience with configuration of many other routers, switches, modems etc, I found it extremely hard to get the port configurations working as desired due to their unwieldy and unique user interface. I brought in networking experts, and still could not get configuration working as I wanted. I could not find SonicWall certified technicians in my area. What\s the use of security appliance if the user can't control it easily?
Enterprise network security
