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\u2019t hurt to consider an upgrade.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You can still find licenses available for existing TZ400s, but it\u2019s 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>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-8b5f2f1 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"8b5f2f1\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Comparing SonicWall TZ400 and TZ470<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-e39bf0e elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"e39bf0e\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<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\u2019t mean its capabilities aren\u2019t still viable in today\u2019s 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\u2019t be ignored. For example, many companies would benefit from the higher firewall throughput in the TZ470.\u00a0<\/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\u2019t that the TZ400 isn\u2019t worth the time or money; it merely underperforms compared to the TZ470 in several ways.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-52141cd elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"52141cd\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h3 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">What is the SonicWall TZ400?<\/h3>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-8d217c5 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"8d217c5\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Undoubtedly a flexible firewall security option, the TZ400 was once an optimal choice for many businesses.
