I have had a great experience with NG Firewall, we use it across multiple locations, and it is very reliable and easy to use.

Pros

Ease of setup, multiple features all in one, not nearly as expensive as competitors.

Cons

Some of the hardware appliances aren't the most reliable, and we have had to build custom machines to have the software run on.

Overall this is an amazing firewall, I really enjoyed working on the UI, and it seems to be working pretty well. We can easily control the traffic by applying the firewall rules.

Pros

Really liked one simple dashboard, we can take a very quick glance looking at dashboard, and have summarized idea of what is happening. Dashboard for application visibility, top talkers are also great feature on its UI.

Cons

We should have the ability to filter by user groups the login access on captive portal.

It is an awsome experience, for administrators jus one time set up and you are good to go, rest monitoring is required.

Pros

Ssl vpn Policy based routing. Wizard to easily set up rules. All the security bundles in a single package.

Cons

Bug fixation takes a lot of time, this needs to be done on priority and patches should be released weekly with the complete blue print.

Reasons for choosing NG Firewall

Cost factor. Bundle security features. Quality of support.

We love it and recommend all the time. We have moved clients from Sophos and Fortigate to Untangle, and they love it.

Pros

We love the fact that Untangle has products from a home user to enterprise companies. The flexibility is amazing, from getting an appliance, to being able to deploy it on a VM allows a lot of different companies to get the benefits.

Cons

The interface is not intuitive for a user that has never used a piece of software like this before.

We purchased an appliance with Untangle included and it has been working for us without a hitch for the last 2 years, it gave our network better management and Untangle just keeps adding new features.

Pros

Untangle provides a very easy robust solution to manage your network, setting up VLANs, Site To Site VPNs, Internal DNS, and web/application filtering.

Cons

Sometimes LT2P VPNs fail to connect but it might bedo to Windows 10, on Android there was no issues.

The big thing with Untangle is the ease of use. We're a small I.T. operation so we're switching gears constantly. Untangle's interface is easy and intuitive enough that we can jump into it quickly and move on. We don't have to refer to notes to figure out how to do something complicated.

Pros

Untangle gets it...they do firewalling and do it very well. The product is very easy to use, that's it's big selling point.

Cons

Historically they've been a little slower on the development side, features roll out behind the big guys.

Untangle gives you only what you need, when you need it. It is the best Gateway system out there for any over worked, understaffed IT Dept. Works out of the box in minutes...to as complex as you need it to be. Support is great too...very helpful when you can't afford to staff a Gateway admin.

Pros

Fast and easy to deploy...simple to use.

Cons

Haven't really found one yet....except if you like command lines....you will not like this GUI

My overall experience has been great, I have had to rely on tech support several time and was very happy with the service I received.

Pros

The best thing about Untangle that I tout to other IT people in our industry is the reporting. Untangle has extensive reporting abilities and is easily configurable to a large scenario of different needs. The granularity of the filtering ability is a very close second to the reporting. I have fine tuned my Untangle appliance to fit our very specific needs in the utility industry. I also really like the centralized management component . I have Untangle appliances in multiple places and I can manage them all from my desktop.

Cons

I really tried to come up with something that I didn't like or something that I would like changed, but the more I use it the more I like it.
