Top Rated Arista NG Firewall Alternatives
Untangle is simple to use with nice dashboards that display a lot of information and reports. We recently switched to a paid version and prior to that, even when we didn't have a support plan the support team still helped us out as much as they could. All of their apps are really useful that allows you to filter sites, and whitelist sites easily or a WAN balancer with alerts whenever one of them goes down. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

GUI Interface and the ease of configuration. It is easy to adapt to numerous hardware devices. The apps add another dimension to security and the ability to see what is happening. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Being in an environment that has mobile users bringing their own devices and using public wifi the pay per device model is difficult to stomach. Over 150 of our licenses are just user's cell phones. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Untangle NG Firewall is easy to deploy and use. You can expand functionality by purchasing plugins for only what you want. Licensing is simple as it is per device for all services. You can bypass devices to save licenses (for example: for IoT devices or printers bypassing Content Filtering). Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Content Filtering can be problematic when a website is flagged to multiple categories or when categories include diverse or uncategorized content, as you'll encounter blocked pages or false-positive alerts. Since licensing is done per device, you must have enough for the maximum number of clients you could have connected, so content filtering guest Wi-Fi, for example, could require a large investment.
