From meeting the needs of different businesses of different sizes to modern features in network and firewall security, SonicWall has you covered.</span></p><p><span style="font-weight: 400;">As you might expect, the SonicWall TZ470 is seen as a clear upgrade compared to the TZ400. On another note, the TZ400 has been discontinued, which means it doesn鈥檛 hurt to consider an upgrade.</span></p><p><span style="font-weight: 400;">You can still find licenses available for existing TZ400s, but it鈥檚 important to be critical of the differences between these two models. This article will highlight what separates the TZ400 from the 470 to help guide your decision-making on modern firewall solutions.</span></p> </div> </div> <div class="elementor-element elementor-element-8b5f2f1 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading" data-id="8b5f2f1" data-element_type="widget" data-widget_type="heading.default"> <div class="elementor-widget-container"> <style>/*! elementor - v3.20.0 - 26-03-2024 */ .elementor-heading-title{padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1}.elementor-widget-heading .elementor-heading-title[class*=elementor-size-]>a{color:inherit;font-size:inherit;line-height:inherit}.elementor-widget-heading .elementor-heading-title.elementor-size-small{font-size:15px}.elementor-widget-heading .elementor-heading-title.elementor-size-medium{font-size:19px}.elementor-widget-heading .elementor-heading-title.elementor-size-large{font-size:29px}.elementor-widget-heading .elementor-heading-title.elementor-size-xl{font-size:39px}.elementor-widget-heading .elementor-heading-title.elementor-size-xxl{font-size:59px}</style><h2 class="elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default">Comparing SonicWall TZ400 and TZ470</h2> </div> </div> <div class="elementor-element elementor-element-e39bf0e elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor" data-id="e39bf0e" data-element_type="widget" data-widget_type="text-editor.default"> <div class="elementor-widget-container"> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">When you stack up the specifications side by side, some of the differences are pretty evident. The TZ400 has been discontinued, but that doesn鈥檛 mean its capabilities aren鈥檛 still viable in today鈥檚 world of network security. Before we get into a detailed side-by-side comparison, some of the surface-level differences between the two firewalls can鈥檛 be ignored. For example, many companies would benefit from the higher firewall throughput in the TZ470.聽</span></p><p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Not to mention, the TZ470 supports more demanding networks that demand a higher number of connections and VPN throughputs. Once again, it isn鈥檛 that the TZ400 isn鈥檛 worth the time or money; it merely underperforms compared to the TZ470 in several ways.</span></p> </div> </div> <div class="elementor-element elementor-element-52141cd elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading" data-id="52141cd" data-element_type="widget" data-widget_type="heading.default"> <div class="elementor-widget-container"> <h3 class="elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default">What is the SonicWall TZ400?</h3> </div> </div> <div class="elementor-element elementor-element-8d217c5 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor" data-id="8d217c5" data-element_type="widget" data-widget_type="text-editor.default"> <div class="elementor-widget-container"> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Undoubtedly a flexible firewall security option, the TZ400 was once an optimal choice for many businesses. It still is in certain cases, as plenty of people still use the firewall and its associated licenses. However, its discontinuation will eventually phase out the product, as this event has already made way for newer models, such as the TZ470.</span></p> </div> </div> </div> </div> <div class="elementor-element elementor-element-525377e e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent" data-id="525377e" data-element_type="container" data-core-v316-plus="true"> <div class="e-con-inner"> <div class="elementor-element elementor-element-96f76dd e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child" data-id="96f76dd" data-element_type="container"> <div class="elementor-element elementor-element-2c1abbd elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor" data-id="2c1abbd" data-element_type="widget" data-widget_type="text-editor.default"> <div class="elementor-widget-container"> <p>A few notable aspects of the SonicWall TZ400 include:</p><ul><li>Blocks malware and zero-day security threats</li><li>Single-pass DPI architecture</li><li>Best for small to mid-size organizations</li><li>Configuration and management are handled through the cloud</li><li>No expansion slots</li><li>No power over ethernet (oE) support</li></ul> </div> </div> </div> <div class="elementor-element elementor-element-6ef74ba e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child" data-id="6ef74ba" data-element_type="container"> <div class="elementor-element elementor-element-530dbe2 elementor-widget elementor-widget-image" data-id="530dbe2" data-element_type="widget" data-widget_type="image.default"> <div class="elementor-widget-container"> <img decoding="async" width="600" height="224" alt="sonicwall tz400 firewall is great smb small business firewall with secure remote access and vpn tunnels" data-srcset="https://www.firewalls.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2017/10/TZ400.jpg 600w, https://www.firewalls.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2017/10/TZ400-300x112.jpg 300w" data-src="https://www.firewalls.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2017/10/TZ400.jpg" data-sizes="(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px" class="attachment-large size-large wp-image-12679 lazyload" src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==" /><noscript><img decoding="async" width="600" height="224" src="https://www.firewalls.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2017/10/TZ400.jpg" class="attachment-large size-large wp-image-12679" alt="sonicwall tz400 firewall is great smb small business firewall with secure remote access and vpn tunnels" srcset="https://www.firewalls.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2017/10/TZ400.jpg 600w, https://www.firewalls.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2017/10/TZ400-300x112.jpg 300w" sizes="(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px" /></noscript> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> <div class="elementor-element elementor-element-5e818dd e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent" data-id="5e818dd" data-element_type="container" data-core-v316-plus="true"> <div class="e-con-inner"> <div class="elementor-element elementor-element-3cd00f4 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor" data-id="3cd00f4" data-element_type="widget" data-widget_type="text-editor.default"> <div class="elementor-widget-container"> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">It may seem like a mild choice for larger businesses, but for those who are just getting started, it was a great entry-level option.
