AT&T VPN vs SonicWall SMA comparison

"The stability of the solution is its most valuable feature."

"The solution is reliable and has good overall performance."

"I think they ask for a fair price."

"The performance is good."

"Secure Mobile Access (SMA) is easy to configure and the deployment is straightforward. However, this is mostly because of the AWS setup."

"SonicWall SMA has the most valuable feature of proprietary security technologies like Capture ATP."

"The advanced threat protection and the endpoint control features of SonicWall SMA have helped improve security measures tremendously."

"I like the load balancing capability."

"This solution has many options for remote desktop and access."

"The solution had slow connections and very bad routers. We continuously had issues with the VPN and proxy configuration."

"The overall menu is not very user-friendly and it could be easier."

"Enhancing live tracking capabilities could improve the product, particularly in monitoring user activity and request statuses in real-time on the web interface."

"This is an expensive solution and I think that the price could be improved."

"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."

"SonicWall SMA is difficult to use and it does not provide easy access to different parts of the network."

"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."

"The only thing that they could try to improve is the support for enterprise customers. Normally enterprises and SMBs can create a ticket, but for enterprises, SonicWall SMA needs to provide a global view, and this is what's currently missing. It's not even a question of timing. It's a question of the global vision because currently, it's lacking. They concentrate on the topic, but not on the means and not on the global picture. In most cases, there's something wrong with the integration of SonicWall SMA with other products, so that could also be improved."

"The solution could integrate better with other platforms."

"All the costs are included in a bundled license."

"The platform has medium pricing."

"I don't know about the pricing of the SSL-VPN box. I know the SSL-VPN software is free. Global VPN client, by comparison, is licensed for around $150 or something like that. But the SSL-VPN software is free. It is already built-in with the box."

"Our licenses are stackable and can be anywhere from five users to a million users."

"The cost of the licensing is based on the maximum number of concurrent users, and it costs a lot to add them."

"This solution is priced well and we currently have the maximum number of licenses allowed."
