Peplink SpeedFusion vs SonicWall SMA comparison

"The SpeedFusion feature is the most valuable."

"It is a very stable product."

"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 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."

"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."

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

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

"I like the load balancing capability."

"Blocklisting and allowlisting are the most beneficial features for network security."

"SonicWall SMA has the most valuable feature of proprietary security technologies like Capture ATP."

"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 am very satisfied with the technical support."

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

"I think they ask for a fair price."

"The performance is good."

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

"I believe there could be some enhancements in the enterprise segment, offering greater options or something similar."

"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."

"The stability has room for improvement."

"There is room for improvement in enhancing security features, such as incorporating intrusion detection blocking capabilities and integrating artificial intelligence to bolster security aspects on the device."

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

"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."

"User interface could be improved."

"The overall menu is not very user-friendly and it could be easier."

"SonicWall SMA is difficult to use and it does not provide easy access to different parts of the network."

"The product's technical support services could 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 timed synchronization between the network appliance needs improvement."

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

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

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

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

"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."

"The platform has medium pricing."

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

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

"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."

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