Firewall and UTM are different products. XG UTM is UTM9. Currently there is a gap in feature sets and both the GUIs and basic concepts of administration are quite different. You're question is best served by giving you a link to the XG Firewall (SFOS) trial, which can be installed in a VM, so you can play with it and make a comparison. www.sophos.com/.../next-gen-firewall.aspx. Some people like the new Firewall, other UTM users would rather hit themselves in the head with a hammer than to have to use it. A very subjective thing, so take the time to make up your own mind. The Firewall forums can be found at http://community.sophos.com/products/xg-firewall/f/46, if you have questions while using the trial.
