Peplink SpeedFusion vs SonicWall SMA comparison

"The SpeedFusion feature is good. It allowed us to move away from IPsec between the sites. It is also a really easy product to deploy."

"The solution has four key features, that maybe the other competitors don't have yet."

"Our customers find it to be an interesting and tempting solution."

"The valuable feature is that, after reading about its capabilities and using it for a while, Peplink SpeedFusion employs eight technologies within its SD-WAN profile, addressing issues like packet loss and latency. The solution is highly stable. I rate it a nine out of ten. The support team gives quick response and efficient local support."

"It allowed us to be able to use both ISP connections at pretty much double the bandwidth, and it also provided us the high availability because if one ISP goes down, it is usually transparent so the users don't notice."

"In the Philippines, VPN usage may not be widely known, but we leverage VPN effectively within my organization. I've shared our in-house systems with other district offices, as I cover fifteen municipalities and cater to the entire province. This platform is a valuable tool for us, enabling collaborative work, and allowing us to update our services remotely."

"It is a very stable product."

"The most valuable feature is the virtual VPN concentrator."

"I am very satisfied with the technical support."

"The product is extremely flexible, the program is easy to use, the performance is good, and the solution is very stable."

"What I like best about SonicWall SMA is the relationship between its features and its price, because the solution is both affordable and functional."

"I like the load balancing capability, it is very fast and it has a simple interface."

"My advice to others is this solution is reliable, feature-rich, and reasonable-priced."

"The management and the dashboard are the solution's most valuable features."

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

"I am very satisfied with the technical support."

"Some of the partners, especially in the Middle East, are not fine."

"Its pricing is the main issue. The pricing could be improved."

"The product needs to aggregate the bandwidth of different ISPs. It needs to improve scalability as well."

"Its pricing is the main issue. The pricing could be improved. I would like to see an outbound policy based on the application. It is a very good feature, and most of the customers are looking for that. They can also include stronger firewall features. This would help the customers in choosing this product as the only device for the SD network."

"Their hardware support isn't the greatest. We've had one unit go down, and it took a while for them to replace it. It was in the Caribbeans, so it might be a location-related issue."

"They don't have next generation firewall, UTM, like the other competitors."

"A disadvantage for Peplink maybe the features are not as strong as those of their competitors."

"Their hardware support isn't the greatest. We've had one unit go down, and it took a while for them to replace it."

"The product's technical support services could be improved."

"The only thing that they could try to improve is the support for enterprise customers."

"This solution is very slow, and the competitors have much higher speeds."

"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."

"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 product itself is very good, but Dell needs to work on product visibility in their advertising."

"The problem is that when combined with what the client already has, there are two different logins and two different management systems, and these should be consolidated into a single interface."

"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."

"Its licensing fee is on a yearly basis. For the price, it is actually pretty good value."

"The cost is in the middle, a five out of ten."

"Perpetual licensing, which is good for customers that don't want any annual or subscription based license."

"I rate Peplink SpeedFusion's pricing an eight out of ten."

"It's not cheap, but it is highly competitive."

"It has lifetime licensing. Its pricing is high for most of the markets."

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

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

"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."

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

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