If anyone is in this situation then there is several commercial providers using Squid. This way you get the best of both. My personal preference is naturally with MARA Systems (as I part own it, and is also responsible for the product design), but Swelltech also is a recommendable player in this market. By buying from the recommended Squid commercial providers you in fact help the Squid community by making sure the Squid development surives and is the second best thing from hiring your own developers to work on enhancing Squid.
