I'm preparing for an upgrade from NGX R65 running SPLAT on a HP server to possibly one of the UTM-1 appliances specifically the 1073/1076 for a 300 user network. I'm currently using a Barracuda Web Filter for URL and antivirus/anti -malware filtering that also need to be upgraded soon so I'm considering the UTM options for this.
I'm trying to determine if the web filter could be replaced with the URL Software Blade and the Antivirus & Anti-Malware Software Blade. Anyone have any experience yet with these blades? We are happy with the Barracuda Web Filter but it is another piece of hardware, I'm being told this can now be replaced and handled on the UTM appliance. It also appears Fortinet is giving Checkpoint a strong run for the money with the FortiGate UTM appliances, my vendor is recommending I take a serious look. Any feed back or real world experience with these Checkpoint UTM Software Blades would be appreciated.
