| Considered Both Products | Juniper SRX Series Firewalls  Amr Momtaz Cloud Migration Architect Chose Juniper SRX Series Firewalls The juniper is very versatile router/firewall box. it is an excellent router/edge device with zone based firewall.

The SRX is a solid device, and we have not seen a hardware failure to date. The Juniper support I have had is stellar and has helped me out with larger more complex scenario …  Randy Carpenter Vice President Chose Juniper SRX Series Firewalls Juniper SRX is significantly better in every category.

The Barracuda Control Center is so powerful and useful that it beats out the other two. SonicWall does a great job of dividing up firewall rules and NAT policies, but this is a …  Ramon Vazquez IT Director Chose SonicWall TZ SonicWall TZ is a much better product. Easier to administer and use and much more elaborate in its rules. I would choose it over Watchguard any day.  Alan Matson, CCNA:S, MCP Senior Network Security Engineer Chose SonicWall TZ Costs, features and ease of use were the determining factors. The UI alone outweighs the CLI from the ASA and SRX, features were easier to understand and licenses were more easily obtained. |
