  • What is wrong with Sophos XG, they are clearly using this product just to push the envelope but I am getting afraid to put this into any big networks after my first few..  I was thinking of standardizing on the XG firewall for all clients but after some horrible experiences with firmware upgrades I changed my mind. I understand that they use a patchwork of various open-source technologies but it seems so half-assed when they patch it all together stuff always breaks.
