What differentiates Arista NG Firewall from other similar products?

Its rack based user interface is easy to get your brain around. It's great for a person who thinks visually...

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

The ability to quickly make changes without having to guess "will this work?"

What do you dislike most about this product?

Some of the port forwarding and advanced networking config could be clearer perhaps

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

Try out a demo if you can and see if you like the basic rack metaphor Untangle uses. Some people (like myself) love it, other people might not. Check and see if it's going to work for you. If you run a big network you're going to be spending a lot of time using it so it's good to know if it's a good fit for you and your needs.

Pros

  • Helps Innovate
  • Continually Improving Product
  • Reliable
  • Enables Productivity

Buy the appliance. It's pricey but worth it!

Likeliness to Recommend

10 /10

What differentiates Arista NG Firewall from other similar products?

It is extremely easy to use. We have had some issues that were all caused by our old hardware but tech supports was always helpful if I needed assistance.

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

We ran a free version of the software then for years we ran the paid version on our own hardware. When we upgraded our fiber connection our old hardware was too slow. I purchased the z6 appliance and realized that I should have purchased it years ago. The z6 is great.

What do you dislike most about this product?

The yearly subscription cost is too high.

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

Buy the appliance. You will be glad you did.
