"Sonicwall is a firewall provider who has built an entire ecosystem around security"
4.5/5
What do you like best about SonicWall Next Generation Firewall?

Sonicwall's #1 strength is the interface. A tech can quickly accomplish what they need without running command lines and knowing another language. That being said, they focus on security just as much. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about SonicWall Next Generation Firewall?

I have not been a fan of the GUI changes that have been pretty stark and consistent over the last few years. It does not seem that Sonicwall knows what i wants to stick with in terms of the presentation. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Not a bad unit but could be better"
3/5
What do you like best about SonicWall Next Generation Firewall?

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. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about SonicWall Next Generation Firewall?

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. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
