Overall Satisfaction with Cisco Adaptive Security Appliance (ASA) Software
In our organization, we have been using the [Cisco] ASA 5525 Series Firewall for the last 5 years and we have never faced any issues [or] downtime. We are using nat, routing, and site-to-site VPN features. We have connected our all sites through the site-to-site VPN and also provided Cisco AnyConnect remote VPN to home users.

We were using pfsence before [the] Cisco ASA firewall and we were not happy with pfSense features. Lots of features are missing in pfSence so we decided to install the [Cisco] ASA 5525 and we are very happy with the features. There are lots of options in nat and you can easy to configure the site to site VPN.
