SonicWave Series Reviews & Insights

My company has deployed SonicWall Firewall with SonicWave AP's at two companies. Originally the SonicWall WiFi firewall appliance was deployed with the possibility of expanding wifi for these customers. Which was the case. We were told that they will mesh easily into the current production environment. This was not the case. This product is not intuitive and is difficult to add to a SonicWall 300w Firewall appliance. There are other solutions with better cost benefits and user friendliness than this product.

This product does is not intuitive to setup. Having to create Zones and rules just to add a SonicWave AP is simple too difficult, especially when other competitors products are easy to setup. We added this product to a SonicWall WiFi firewall appliance and could not mesh it into the existing ip scheme. Had to create Zones and forwarding rules so employees could use resources on the networks main ip scheme. Other products, such as Ubiquit, are by far more intuitive. Not to mention you don't have to pay for every little feature such as web filtering.

The SonicWall SonicWave Series Dashboard from version v7.0 is easy to Manage and add the policies. Unlike others vendor firewalls, the SonicWall SonicWave Series firewall has multiple ports already built-in. We can set up both Site to Site and SSL VPN in less time with the newly upgraded GUI. In Sonicwall, multiple preconfigured security profiles protect the network when it deploys.

We are using SonicWave access points for our branch offices. Those offices already have SonicWall firewall and hence is easy to manage and control. This serves our basic purpose of secure wifi and is also cost-effective. Around 12 to 15 users connecting behind 1 SonicWave device. There are also 3 SonicWave we have procured and deployed in our organization.

If you are having a small network or environment in which users count is less and if you are already using SonicWall firewall or UTM devices as network security. SonicWave will be the best suitable for you to provide wireless connectivity features for your users. This is even suitable when there are a lot of guests visiting your office and you want to have a separate network topology for them.
