Best open source firewall
What do you like best about the product?
The best about pfsense is that it is a mature application , which runs under FreeBSD , what causes it to have better networking stack than Linux . It allows packet defragmenting , and can integrate wich other useful packages such as OpenVPN, Suricata , Snort, DNS , DHCP , etc. I like I can connect two ISPs and use both at the same time , expanding my bandwidth and/or use as a backup ISP. Don't loose internet connectivity again !
What do you dislike about the product?
Nothing to criticize . Some argue that being FreeBSD is different than Linux , that may some feel intimidated by this . But I don't think is something to dislike .
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Firewall , multi wan and vpn and dns and dhcp and security scan using suricata. I use in a solid state appliance mini itx which is always on 24x7 with DC UPS which is always on
Run 8 casinos and hotels exclusively on pfSense
What do you like best about the product?
pdSense saves our company tens of thousands of dollars each year. It runs flawlessly on our VMware clusters and I've never had an outage in the 7 years I've ran it.
What do you dislike about the product?
The main downside is that almost everyone gives you a weird look when you tell them you're not spending $20K a year on Fortigate or PA licenses. A lot of people think pfSense is for home or small businesses that don't take security seriously. I kindly remind them that the NSA was caught once hiding a back door in Juniper's devices.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Reliable and fast firewalls for our corporate and public WiFi networks.
We use OpenVPN+Radius+Duo for free and secure VPN services for our employees. We use IPSec for Site to Site VPN tunnels to connect our multi-state properties together.
