Sophos GS-205 vs UTM Software

Hello..

Performance and stability point of view, someone can tell me what should be the correct choice?

Currently I have a descent Firewall but slow when it do live monitoring on the network (like troubleshoot something to work on the network), VoIP is working now but with some workaround. I can add DELL name is on their web site but I do not want to offence Dell fan [8-)]

Anyway.. I was looking for SG-205 and I just installed their software on a VM to see a bit the interface.

Thank you for any answer ..

For home use you get the UTM software for free

https://www.sophos.com/en-us/products/free-tools/sophos-utm-home-edition.aspx

Its limited to 50 IPs

Just need a box to run it on. Depending on internet speed and features you need to run will determine how much power you need but even a modest i3 box off eBay will do most home/lab setups.

When adding NICs use Intel based models as they perform much better than the Realtek cheap and cheerful units
