"The most valuable features are that it is reasonably-priced and works well."
"The most valuable feature is the Global Management System."

"I like that SonicWall NSa is a stable product. It's also a scalable product."

"There could be more integration between the logging and analytical platforms to make it more seamless and integrated."
"They should offer special pricing to premium partners and customers."
"The support from Fortinet FortiGate could improve. They are not easily accessible when we need them. They could improve their response time."
"It would be a benefit if Fortinet would release a one-stop solution that is better integrated with other products and an automated emergency response system."
"Some of the web policy reports could be improved."
"They can do more tests before they release new versions because I would like to be more assured. We had some experiences where they release something new and great, but some of the old features are disabled or they don't work well, which impacts the product satisfaction. The manufacturer should be able to prove that everything works or not only that it might work. This is applicable to most of the other services, software, and hardware companies. They all should work on this. We cannot trust every new release, such as a beta release, on the first day. We wait for some comments on the forums and from other companies that we know. We always wait a few weeks before we use the updated version. They should also extend the VPN client application, especially for Linux versions. Currently, it has an application for Linux devices, but it doesn't work the way we want to connect to the VPN. They use only the old connection, not the new one. They have VPN client applications for Windows and Mac, but they can add more useful features to better manage the devices and monitor the current health of each device. Such features would be helpful for our company."
"The web-cache feature which was previously on the FortiGate device, but was deleted with the recent upgrade should be returned. It was a very valuable feature for us."
"The logging details need to be improved."
"I haven't seen any feature that will allow me direct authentication for a VPN solution."
"It is very modular and with native resources which are much lower than its competitors."
"The dynamics needs to be improved. The solution is not very compatible compared to the market products."
"Competitors provide SSL encryption licenses for free, whereas SonicWall only provides two licenses by default, but you have to pay for the rest of the licenses."
"The pricing for this product in India is high and the fees should be reduced."
"The cloud services may be in need of some improvement."
"The detection of malware can improve in SonicWall NSa."
"It doesn't require much improvement. The only improvement area is that cloud reporting, assessment reporting, and other reporting features should be available with the subscription. They should provide reporting features with the subscription base, which is currently not there. We bought the reporting tool, but there are some complications. They have made some changes to the application, and now the reporting management is completely on the cloud."
"We also use the Sophos Firewall for web configuration, which we don't have in SonicWall. Only Sophos has those options. If SonicWall included that feature, that would be a benefit for us."
