Room For Improvement

GravityZone Business Security needs improvements in integration, user interface, performance, and additional features to enhance efficiency and ROI.
SonicWall Capture Client requires performance improvements, a modern UI, and better integration to address resource impact, undetected vulnerabilities, and licensing issues.
It's not designed with current standards; it's not HTML5 and doesn't work well for navigation.
More customization freedom to accommodate unique environment needs could enhance the solution's flexibility.
We have disabled all the external media via GravityZone Business Security policies, but when connecting a device such as a phone, it was getting detected, and users were able to read and write files.
One of the drawbacks is that I cannot use Advanced and Premier licenses within a single tenant, which can be problematic when users need to deploy different licenses.
XDR cannot be used unless MDR services are purchased with SonicWall.
The RAM usage is higher compared to SentinelOne, utilizing approximately 150 megabytes of memory.

GravityZone Business Security is cost-effective, charging around $1 per device monthly, with competitive three-year licensing deals.
SonicWall Capture Client offers cost-effective yearly licensing, but perceived value varies, with pricing challenges for small and medium businesses.

Datto is offering a bundle for less than what we pay for Bitdefender.
The pricing is very reasonable.
SonicWall Capture Client offers a cost-effective solution that's cheaper compared to other vendors like CrowdStrike.
 

Valuable Features

GravityZone Business Security offers comprehensive protection, easy management, cost-effectiveness, and detailed risk analysis, making it highly reliable.
SonicWall Capture Client offers rollback, SentinelOne integration, cross-OS support, robust protection, ease of use, and cost-effective scalability.
The best part is the risk management; it gives me real relief, and an overall idea of what all my systems are exposed to, where my weaknesses lie, and how I can address them—whether it's misconfigurations, user behavior creating the risk, or the OS software that isn't getting patched, or critical CVs that aren't getting mitigated.
The threat detection capability is outstanding with no issues at all.
It allows us to dive deeper into malicious activities whether it's phishing or anything like that, and it has really been very helpful.
Machine learning is particularly effective due to SonicWall sandboxing's threat intelligence database of approximately 7.1 billion entries.
One is that users can use the sandbox of SonicWall, which is called Capture ATP for free.

Featured Reviews

Wesam Qashou - PeerSpot reviewer
Achieving nearly complete protection with reliable configuration management and effective technical support
The most valuable features of GravityZone Business Security are its anti-malware and anti-virus capabilities. The firewall policies are considered very powerful, and it prevents many malicious issues. The solution has its own definitions for viruses or malware, providing timely detection updates. Additionally, their technical support is very effective, with knowledgeable engineers handling cases efficiently.
Hesdi Triantono - PeerSpot reviewer
Has consistently delivered double-layer protection and simplified policy application while needing mobile compatibility and better MacOS support
A significant limitation is that SonicWall Capture Client cannot be installed on smartphones, as there is no mobile version available.Occasionally, the Sentinel engine becomes unresponsive, particularly when customers do not properly restart or shutdown their systems. This requires a hard restart after installation to resolve the issue. Installation on Mac OS can be challenging, requiring multiple attempts due to version compatibility requirements. We must ensure the SonicWall Capture Client version is stable for Mac OS. The RAM usage is higher compared to SentinelOne, utilizing approximately 150 megabytes of memory. This is a common concern from customers, and reducing RAM consumption would be beneficial.
