Valuable Features:
User friendly design and interface
Easy to setup and create rules
It is not just a firewall, it provides intrusion detection and web filtering as well
It is NAT-friendly, that is it can work behind proxies
Room for Improvement:
It creates a lot of popups, which can sometimes become frustrating
Its simplicity makes it suitable for small scale end users, but it is not complex enough for implementing a large scale enterprise security solution
The pro version, with many important features, is a bit expensive
Other Advice:
I have used it in the past for personal desktops and for systems at small startups, but I would not recommend it as an enterprise level firewall security solution.
