While UTM won't be EOL for a few years, realize that this platform will be going into security patches and "sustain" mode much sooner. There is no way we can justify our own purchase nor recommend our customer buy a product thats not truly under development. Also realize that Sophos considers SFOS to be "worthy" now. SFOS is not much more than GUI update to cyberroam. In fact current cyberroam customers can upgrade to SFOS right now as a normal update. When Sophos bought Cyberroam, they considered the cyberroam product a full complete replacement and better option than UTM. They see it as just missing a few UTM specific features that will come in time. The cyberroam platform/codebase and ethos wont magically give way to a UTM code base in a future release. Back to my original question...anyone have experience with palo alto networks? Likes promising. I'll take a look at FortiNet too. Any others people would recommend?
