"The packet filtering's great. You get out what you put into it. It works great as long as you know your security and configure everything adequately. If you just pop one in and it's not configured, then it's basically wide open. It kind of depends on the admin skill, but it's an excellent product."
"This is a very stable product."

"Sophos should improve its ability to check something like bandwidth consumption for users or something more real-time."
"I would like them to move from the Classic Load Balancer to the Network Load Balancer. This would make it easier to do certain things with Amazon. They are able to do some enhancements with Network Load Balancer that they are unable to do with Classic Load Balancer."
"The virus updates will always depend on new viruses that are discovered. Maybe they can send a notification or a reminder for update time."
