"It was like someone threw the light switch on for them," said Jim Slick, President and CEO, Slick Systems, LLC. "They instantly saw a huge reduction in spam and other threats, along with a huge boost in performance with the NSA 3500 and SonicWALL Email Security appliances. Their president told me himself how pleased they were. It made one heck of a good first impression."
The customer initially had implemented the competing "premium" vendor firewall under the assumption that spending more would ensure better protection.
"Other premium solutions tend to be multi-product solutions," said Slick, speaking from over 20 years of IT experience. "I've seen organizations spend $350,000 on competing products just to get intrusion prevention, and quite honestly it didn't do the job properly anyway, and consumed an FTE."
SonicWALL's end-to-end suite of products and services can meet the comprehensive security needs of businesses, from end-user desktops, to mission critical data and servers, to the perimeter gateway, to remote and mobile endpoints and beyond. SonicWALL has a solution that will fit the demands and budget of every segment. For the SMB, SonicWALL offers an award-winning line of network security (TZ and NSA Series), secure remote access (SSL VPN Series), anti-spam (Email Security Series) and backup and recovery (CDP Series) solutions.
Another customer, a small pool company in Wilkes-Barre, contacted Slick when its low-end device proved ineffective against malware attacks. The company could not afford to deploy a lavish, expensive infrastructure. Slick resolved their problem with a SonicWALL TZ 190 Wireless. Similarly, SonicWALL's price-performance value enabled Slick to win a bid with a manufacturing company in Hazelton, and opened the door for an additional IT outsourcing contract. Slick has seen a boost in SonicWALL sales.
"We recently sold four SonicWALL appliances in just two weeks," said Slick. "The NSA firewalls are first class. The gateway security suite just works, the VPN architecture is built to handle the load of all those services running."
Slick prefers a hands-on approach to augment automated monitoring systems, routinely logging into customer appliances at least once a month.
"The global VPN client works like a charm, and we don't have to charge for travel or fuel expenses," said Slick.
Slick has also been pleased with the assistance his business receives from SonicWALL.
"Support is phenomenal," said Slick, "and my sales rep has been a great advocate for my company and helping me promote my business. He replies to my emails promptly."
For Slick, the SonicWALL product line offers an excellent business opportunity.
"In my opinion," said Slick, "nothing else out there gives the level of protection and performance at a reasonable price point like SonicWALL."
