Featured Reviews

Shiraz Ali - PeerSpot reviewer
Provides a unified and multi-layer security solution
I believe Sangfor Endpoint Secure could improve in terms of its user interface and management capabilities. Having a single, more user-friendly management console, like a one-window approach, would streamline the user experience and make it easier for administrators to handle security tasks more efficiently. Sangfor Endpoint Secure currently only allows one manager to control clients, and it lacks a backup system. It would be better if it supported a secondary manager for backup in case the primary one fails, ensuring uninterrupted service.
Jasmit Singh Juneja - PeerSpot reviewer
A stable solution that is used for endpoint security and to protect computers from malware
We are using the latest version of SonicWall Capture Client. Fortinet is ahead of SonicWall. The range of appliances, equipment, availability in my country with the distributors, and the overall ecosystem of Fortinet is way better than SonicWall. My advice to others looking into using SonicWall Capture Client is to keep giving feedback to the companies regarding whatever improvements should be made. Overall, I rate SonicWall Capture Client an eight out of ten.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"The tool's most valuable features are control access, endpoint security, and load balancing of ISPs."
"The real-time monitoring feature of Sangfor Endpoint Secure is truly real-time, with no delay compared to other solutions."
"What stands out to me is the dual-end user interface they provide."
"It has a quick response time, threat intelligence, cybersecurity features, quick report generation, behavior analysis, dynamic detection, and quarantine features."
"We use the product for network protection from any malicious threat."
"I like the tool's honeypot feature. Some features include having a honeypot to detect attacks in a certain area. Additionally, there is RDP protection, which means that when we remote into our server or any endpoint, we must enter a password as a second layer of security. It can also integrate with next-generation firewalls."
"The most valuable feature I have found in the system is its comprehensive end-to-end protection."
"The tool's AI feature is helpful in endpoint security."
"The threat protection feature of SonicWall Capture Client is most valuable."
"SonicWall Capture Client offers a cost-effective solution that's cheaper compared to other vendors like CrowdStrike."
"The initial setup is straightforward."
"The product’s interface is easy to use."
"SonicWall Capture Client has a serial number to connect to your firewall."
"SonicWall Capture Client's scalability is nice."
"The solution serves as a very stable platform."
"Overall, what I love the most about SonicWall Capture Client is its management console. SonicWall Capture Client also has the intelligence to tell you which computer is online, what OS it uses, etc. I also found the rollback feature and SentinelOne integration valuable in SonicWall Capture Client. Rollback is a powerful feature of the solution because it's similar to locking your endpoint during an attack, so you won't have to pay the hackers, particularly during ransomware attacks. That feature in SonicWall Capture Client allows you to get back your endpoint or make your endpoint right again after an attack. I also like that it isn't complex to remove the engine error from the endpoint because you only have to provide the security key from SonicWall Capture Client, so the process is simple. It's not complex."
 

Cons

"When an issue occurs, the response time for first-level support and the time taken for meetings could be improved."
"It would be much more convenient if the migration tool could be installed directly on the customer's VMs, enabling a smoother migration process to the new infrastructure, with potential restrictions addressed accordingly."
"Sangfor Endpoint Secure performs poorly."
"There are a few areas for improvement. We have encountered licensing issues on occasion, and sometimes updates don't apply properly."
"I face issues while migrating from Kaspersky to Sangfor Endpoint Secure."
"I believe Sangfor Endpoint Secure could improve in terms of its user interface and management capabilities."
"Sangfor Endpoint Secure should include healing capabilities."
"Currently, the tool lacks reporting functionalities."
"It takes technical support too long to resolve an issue."
"The implementation is not easy."
"They should improve their user interface."
"SonicWall Capture Client could be made a little lighter than it currently is in terms of memory consumption."
"The vulnerability reports need to be better. Windows Defender detected some issues that SonicWall Capture Client couldn't."
"Technical support from SonicWall has room for improvement. While their escalation process is understandable, it can be time-consuming as all logs need to be provided multiple times across different service levels."
"SonicWall Capture Client should use less of our PC's memory, as it tends to slow down the performance."
"The biggest issue with SonicWall Capture Client is network latency."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"We were using Hyper-V. So, we switched to Sangfor because of the pricing."
"Price-wise, Sangfor Endpoint Secure can be considered a competitively priced product in the market as it offers quite low prices compared to other solutions."
"The solution is cheap. It is cheaper than other products by 15-20 percent."
"Sangfor Endpoint Secure's pricing is cheap. I rate it seven out of ten."
"Sangfor Endpoint Secure is not a cheap solution."
"The product is expensive compared to other vendors."
"Its "pay as you grow" model offers cost-effectiveness compared to major cloud providers."
"You have to pay for the solution, and a lot of customers do not want to pay."
"Here in Indonesia, SonicWall Capture Client costs five hundred thousand rupiahs for every endpoint. If I'm correct, you only have to pay the licensing fee, and there's no additional fee. To me, the pricing for SonicWall Capture Client is four out of five."
"The product is very expensive."
