What is your opinion about these SonicWall Next-Generation firewalls: TZ and NSa series?
Hi community,
I'd like to know what is your professional opinion about the following two SonicWall products: SonicWall TZ and SonicWall NSa? What are their advantages and disadvantages?
Basically, the main difference is that the TZ series is intended for a Branch office since it has fewer ports and the speed is around 1 GB.
The NSA series has more processor power and more port where you can create subnets and zones (like DMZ). Also, it has ports with 10 Gb and a processor to support the demand.
I have read that an approximate number of users in the highest TZ series (TZ 670) is around 150 to 200 but that is just an estimate.
Hope this helps. You can get more details in SonicWall datasheets where you will find the speed, throughput and more technical specifications to select the one that fits your requirements.
