The product has two-factor authentication. It is pretty easy to use. We can connect it to our domain. We can use the same credentials as Active Directory with Netextender. It is a lot more secure.

I found nothing of value in this solution. In fact, it did quite the opposite.  Productivity for my remote workers went up dramatically once we switched providers. 

It has been a known point of frustration for many IT professionals using SonicWall devices for years on the discussion boards and with support and they won't fix it.  

It is rather disappointing as we had been using SonicWall devices for almost 15 years. We had just upgraded to a TZ500 less than a year before we had to start preparing for the pandemic. What should have been an easily managed solution proved to be quite the dud.

The security on offer is excellent. 

There's not much latency with it. With WatchGuard, for example, we did have latency sometimes.

The initial setup is pretty straightforward.

The product is stable.

One of the most valuable features of SonicWall Netextender is the integration of VPN accounts with Microsoft Identity Management, which enables us to enforce secure access through Microsoft Intune and conditional access policies. This helps ensure that only authorized individuals are able to access the VPN, rather than anyone with knowledge of a password.

It allows us to work remotely.

It's a very simple tool. You enter your username and your password to configure it.

The best feature is that employees can connect to our LAN, and have access to our network from home.

The most valuable feature for the Netextender is the ease with which we can integrate it with SAML. This means that rather than needing to deploy other things like Duo, for example, for two-factor authentication and rather than needing to maintain and support server infrastructure for radius services, we can just integrate it with the Microsoft identity management that is already part and parcel with moving into exchange online.

It is stable and scalable.

It is also easy to install.

NetExtender works very well. I never had an issue with it, and it has been working well for me.

In terms of management, you have good control over the destination. You can use NetExtender to set the policy and the static route for a client. You can modify it based on what your client needs or can access. You have good control over routing.

The product is very cost-effective. For the price-sensitive market, this is a very good product for an SSL VPN solution.

The initial setup is pretty easy.

The product is very user-friendly.

The solution so far has proven itself to be quite stable. 

The documentation is excellent. They have a lot of detail and cover a lot of aspects of the product.

The solution is very easy to configure.
