"Parasols & Umbrellas is probably an understatement when you see one of our high quality 50m² products spread out offering a cool, calming environment during the summer heat. Designed with sun shading as its primary concern, our finely chosen selection of commercial umbrella sets should more than meet your needs."
Centre Pole umbrellas are a more commonly seen umbrella. Supported by a pole erected in the centre, a centre pole umbrella can extend over large distances to offer high levels of shade."

Having quoted which, umbrella with central pole is equally acceptable!
When selecting a unit it will depend on whether you prefer the cantilever set up or the standard central shaft umbrella

: Qualified agreement with parasol. Except about the bit with rain. Umbrella - from ombra = shadow or shade. Etymology: early 17th century: from Italian ombrella, diminutive of ombra ‘shade’, from Latin umbra

Qualified disagreement: I'm aware of the etymology, but this is not the common understanding of umbrella in modern English.
