Hello, I think you already have read the R70/.10/.20 release notes and already know all new things are inside. But I think you need be aware about following: 1: IPS @ R70 is really works good, same protections you have @ smart defense and much more. It work faster and thanks to God exclusions are really works! 2: I am not sure about R65 version you are using, but R70 is working on Linux kernel 2.6 (support new hardware) and fully support CoreXL. 3: From R70.1 there are lot of enhancements in GUI that increase usability. 4: From R70.1 you are able to use hardware monitoring on open servers (number of functions depends on vendor). 5: in large deployments Smart Provisioning is also very useful. Anyway... I am installing/upgrading several checkpoint gateways a week for different customers. All customers are happy to work with R70 and no one want revert to R65:)

At first instance I think to do it with NGX R65. The most important reason is that I don't like anything at all secureplatform OS (windows isn't an option), which is mandatory to install R70.x... But aside from my personal reasons: which platform do you choose to install a security gateway that needs to be exposed 24x7 a year?? which is most secure as a public firewall in your opinion?? Both products supports all my needs and I don't need to use IPS or Eventia.
