We've been using Allot NetEnforcer for years, but have decided to build our own *nix solution because the hardware and support contract costs are just too high with Allot.
The Allot is a great product, in my opinion. Just can't afford it! Someone mentioned the Ellacoya product line ... I expect these are also pretty expensive ... I wonder if anyone could tell us what ballpark pricing is for the e30 unit ....
