Next best UTM product recommendations?

We have begun our corporate search for the next great UTM product . 


With the writing on the wall for the UTM series going EOL in the next few years, I was wondering what other firewalls people have had good experience with?  We will be replacing our ageing 525 HA cluster but also need to select a product we use for our customers.   We like to eat our own dog food before we ask our customers to purchase our recommended firewalls.

So, whats out there?  We have tried the sonicwalls and they use the same per policy paradigm crap used by the SophosFS/Cyberroam. 


We need a solution that scales from SMB up to the enterprise space.  And home based usage would be a bonus too.

Ideas?

  • I have many HA UTM around and I am still buying license renewal.
    I had bad experience with Watchguard while some good with other vendors.

    I am keeping an eye on Sophos XG (at moment I have installed at home). Many many features are missing but there are some things that UTM can forget and we need to take care of them (Proper CLI, Unified Policy, create custom ips rules and ips per rule). UTM rocks but has some/few limits.
    So I will ask myself this question at the end of the year when XG will have release 2.0 and as Sophos promises, many features will be integrated.

    So keep UTM into your installation and keep an eye on XG too (no now but at the end of the year).
