    If you are looking for a smaller network/security team, the ease and low complexity create an easy to manage environment. One engineer can easily manage 100 nodes/locations. If you are just starting to get security conscious and predict regular adjustments to policy, routing, and access, this is a very good system for making easy to understand and low impact changes on a regular basis without operations interruption.

    Awesome for most small businesses that need some better protection past their provider's box. Those usually don't handle anything past being a gateway well. Pricing is another thing. The costs are great as compared to the cost of a box plus support and licensing. Untangle really does have the smaller markets taken care of with exactly what they need. Anything more and you'll be looking at a physical solution.

    Pros
    Forcepoint
    • Easy to manage and make changes on - ACL's are done with ease.
    • Easy USB initial configuration - The easy initial setup of a new location and firewall saves massive time. Settings are automatically pushed to new nodes upon contact with the controller.
    • Low Complexity - This system does not have a lot of complexity requiring extra hours, training, or personnel to manage.

    Cons
    Forcepoint
    • Poor Reporting - It exists but even when calling in to support for assistance, they have no idea how to tackle customizing reports or searching for specific data.

    There are similar hardware and license costs between the two products. The Forcepoint NGFW product is by far easier to use and manage.

    Deploying untangle compared to the others is almost night and day. Sophos is amazing but is usually slow on the GUI. Sonicwall is like using black magic to bring someone back from the dead. Untangle hits all the marks for coving your customers without hitting them with enterprise-level costs.

    Return on Investment
    Forcepoint
    • Efficiency/Productivity increase. The company moved from Cisco firewall and routing hardware to Forcepoint NGFW. It now takes fewer people and fewer hours to manage the new product. This has allowed the company to put the man-hours to use on other projects and tasks.
    • Long term viability. This has been a concern in the past when the company started as Stonegate, merged to become Stonesoft then got purchased by McAfee, then McAfee got purchased by Intel. However, with Forcepoint the product seems to have found a stable home.
    • Low complexity. The Web GUI based system for management has reduced the cost of personnel and training required. There is no longer a need for the company to have higher trained and higher salary cost employees to manage the system. Mid-level admins at lower salaries are capable of managing the GUI based system with ease.
