SonicWall NSv Reviews

The solution is predominantly for gateway-level protection. There are multiple filters now. In the past, these devices were used for extensive filtering regarding phishing, security, and data protection. Back then, there were numerous challenges. I headed IT operations for a B2B marketplace company, where data was the lifeline. We actively monitored logs to detect threats. Things have improved significantly as much protection now happens from the cloud.

Predominantly, we utilized two or three features. One significant aspect was the allocation of bandwidth. Not every user had the same privileges, so high-end users required better bandwidth. We worked on infrastructure where bandwidth was an issue, necessitating allocation. 

Additionally, SonicWall excelled in threat management, evident in how users handled it effectively.

Within our organization's cloud security setup, SonicWall NSv is used repeatedly, and they are not encountering many challenges to deploy it.

It is used for security, specifically as a firewall.

The features of SonicWall NSv that are most effective in enhancing the network include the Application Firewall, which provides enhanced security to the client.

SonicWall NSv handles network threats effectively, and I have noticed improvements with new advanced features such as sandboxing; we are very impressed with it.

The sandboxing feature is very interesting, and we are looking forward to developments in AI-driven security initiatives.

I have some small and medium businesses. I do not use this for enterprise.

I have a variety of customers, such as NSv, non-financial banking enterprises, banking, small bank credit unions, and all those types of businesses. My customer base is different, so I cannot really specify which feature is best. It depends upon the customer. For example, for my small NFB banking services, when they are expanding their branches, I could incorporate a little bit easier.

We use the solution as a firewall for our offices.

The product helps improve our security. We use SonicWall NSv on Azure. It’s a basic firewall. It's similar to all the other firewalls. The tool provides effective threat prevention. It simplifies our security operations. There is no direct connectivity to the VMs. We have everything on the host machine. There, we have the internal switches. So, the network layer has more security.

We installed an on-premises firewall and connected it to the circuit. From the circuit, we give the LAN IP so that all users will be connected with the LAN IP, and everybody will be restricted.

We've given connectivity for work-from-home users. Basic engineers can also easily configure the solution. The solution has no additional charges and no restrictions on the number of users.

SonicWall NSV is used for SSL VPN. The solution is used to centrally manage and maintain the logs.

SonicWall NSV is easy to use, and you can use it to manage the logs easily.

We are clients for the solution. SonicWall is used for creating VPN connections, particularly for side-to-side VPN configurations. Additionally, we employ SonicWall to block addresses and function as a firewall.

One of the standout features of SonicWall is its simplicity in creating and managing rules. The ease of generating reports, and overall, it is a reliable solution that works.

We purchased the AGSS Bundle (Advanced Gateway Security Suite) for the security services, such as antivirus, intrusion prevention system, and anti-spyware botnet GUI. I enabled the security service, and I configured the sandboxing, capture ATP, and a few firewall access rules, such as filter policy, as well as the application filter policy. If necessary, we write certain policies that are related to the Net policy.
