UTM Version 9.352-6 and 9.318-5 released (Do not install!!)

HEY SOPHOS!!!  WAKE UP!

A whole month has gone by since you've delivered this crappy update and nothing happened. Unfortunately I had to install it to close some holes before a PCI scan happened. The scan was ok but now I have to live until the end of my life with a sluggy backend popping up these messages whenever I want to know what is eating up my bandwith?

Hell what do I miss those Astaro days when the programmers and makers had an ear for problems like this and the forum was a platform for users AND programmers.

We are running Astaro/Sophos since 2002 and the 2.0 software box is still lurking from a locker beside my desk (I love the graphics...).

But the thousands of Euros we have spent some months ago for license renewing will be definitely the last ones.

I could not agree more. We have been paying for "Premium Support", but no help here either. For example, I've been complaining more than 3 times now about L2TP/IPsec VPN giving the same IP (from its IP pool) to multiple clients at the same time. Last time I was told v9.351 would fix it. We're on v9.352 now, and the problem still persists. I'm not sure I even want to open a ticket again, because if I do, and even if I mention all the previous tickets related to the problem that have all the details in them, I will still have to start with Level 1 support from the beginning, and explain everything again. And then, they'll tell me to do stuff I've already done before, and which didn't help at all. They do not even bother to read the previous tickets to see what has already been done about fixing the issue. Level 1 support telling me something that Level2/3 support in a previous email has already rejected.

I.AM.FRUSTRATED.NOW!

Our UTM320 is coming EOL now, and the license is going to expire in a couple of months. I am in a process of selecting our future VPN solution right now. I have started looking into XG (well, why not, I want to be fair), but the UI is terrible (I strongly believe whoever designed UI for this forum, designed the UI for XG as well). It's even worse than UTM9. And the latest technologies? Well, IKEv2 is still nowhere to find. And I'm probably not even using UTM/XG to its full extent as many of you guys probably do. All I need is VPN, and maybe web proxy. I was going to give Sophos a chance and I started evaluating their products first, but I'm not going to hold my breath. If anyone has any suggestions about a good enterprise level VPN solution, I'm all ears. We're most likely not going to purchase XG or renew UTM. And if we do, then it means other vendors suck even more than Sophos.

Sorry about typos, I'm seriously upset about all this.
