Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"The solution has good performance.""It's an ideal gateway solution for small and medium businesses, i.e., around 300 devices can be easily handled."

More Netgate TNSR Pros →

"The most valuable feature of Oracle VPN Connect is all the technology involved."

More Oracle VPN Connect Pros →

"Secure Mobile Access (SMA) is easy to configure and the deployment is straightforward. However, this is mostly because of the AWS setup.""I think they ask for a fair price.""This solution has many options for remote desktop and access.""The management and the dashboard are the solution's most valuable features.""The most valuable feature of this solution is they have IT consultants that know SonicWall.""The performance is good.""SonicWall SMA allows us to provide CML-based access to any user.""Blocklisting and allowlisting are the most beneficial features for network security."

More SonicWall SMA Pros →

Cons
"There must be a more easy-to-use GUI."

More Netgate TNSR Cons →

"Oracle VPN Connect could improve the graphical interface."

More Oracle VPN Connect Cons →

"The product itself is very good, but Dell needs to work on product visibility in their advertising.""The overall menu is not very user-friendly and it could be easier.""SonicWall's reporting isn't good. Reports should be part of a data plan. The login mechanism should be improved. It would be helpful if the client could use an agent to log in. An agent-server model would improve the performance of the RDB, which consumes a lot of bandwidth.""Enhancing live tracking capabilities could improve the product, particularly in monitoring user activity and request statuses in real-time on the web interface.""User interface could be improved.""The solution could integrate better with other platforms.""The problem is that when combined with what the client already has, there are two different logins and two different management systems, and these should be consolidated into a single interface.""The solution has 2FA, it will generate a token and send it to an email, but multifactor authentication is not available. I would suggest that there should be MFA integration and provided with the appliance."

  • "Our licenses are stackable and can be anywhere from five users to a million users."
  • "This solution is priced well and we currently have the maximum number of licenses allowed."
  • "All the costs are included in a bundled license."
