SonicWall SMA Valuable Features

BA
Owner at ThinkEzIT

Some of the best features of SonicWall SMA are that it's easy to configure, they're FedRAMP certified so they work in the federal market, and it's a good product.

The advanced threat protection and the endpoint control features of SonicWall SMA have helped improve security measures tremendously. It's an autonomous firewall, so it's always thinking. It isn't a standalone firewall where it has to be either on or off. SonicWall SMA scans all the traffic and verifies if it's good or bad. It gives false positives sometimes, but I'd rather it do that than not.

  • Easy to use
     
  • Simple to manage

  • Integrated with NSa

This solution has many options for remote desktop and access.

It is very effective for file sharing, or if I need the file servers to share specific folders.
