It's a very good firewall – user-friendly and easy to configure, set the policies, and manage. I especially like how it integrates with Active Directory. The next-generation firewall features, simple Pulse configuration, and excellent SSL VPN client are valuable.

We use the solution on campus for students. We are not a non-profit organization working with financial constraints. We are an academic institute, so not very much security is required. We are required to provide real-time security.
We use SonicWall NSa as a firewall to protect our branches. We use the solution for intrusion prevention systems (IPS), intrusion detection systems (IDS), and networking. We have VPN connections with our data center and other branches.
Our primary use case is at the perimeter of all of our customer's sites with all of the security services turned on. That is anti-malware, anti-spyware, geo IP filtering is an important thing for us, web filtering and the Capture ATP. We are looking at preventing downloading of any virus-infected files.
Our primary use case for SonicWall NSa is a firewall and for analytics. I use SonicWall NSa to follow the users. Some users manage to bypass the firewall sometimes and install certain software. I track all of this "bad" behavior and block it.
The solution is a security system we install in our customer's office. It's a firewall. We have a control panel to manage and view some data and this control panel is in the cloud. However, the firewalls themselves are in the customer's office.

We have installed this firewall appliance across cloud and on-premises environments, our clients primarily use the VPN functionality. If a customer wants to use the firewall, they have to pay more money for the cloud. By having a firewall solution, they can configure the VPN through the firewall, enabling them to avoid the high costs. Once you deploy the firewall in the cloud solution, then you will get protection for the gateway as well.

We are integrators, but for SonicWall, we use it for a specific project in industrial cybersecurity. It was for ransomware recovery and network restoration. We did the firewall and the configuration for the ransomware prevention. Our clients were using it to control the SCADA System in their industry.
We are a software development company, and we have approximately 100 to 125 users working at the same time. This firewall is part of our security solution and we are planning to upgrade it to a TZ or another NSA model.
