Hi Team,

Have you ever tried to differentiate cisco ASA 5545-X with any 3rd party UTM firewall like sonicwal or cyberoam.

Your response are highly appreciated.

Thanks

Philip Thanks for your response, but it has unfortunately not solve my problem. I was looking the feature wise comparison between cisco ASA5545-FPWR-K9 with other 3rd party brand.

One more thing, if i choosing the license  L-ASA5545-TAMC-1Y with 5545 will it be supporting content blocking feature. As the license supports IPS, AMP (Advance malware protection) and URL filtering.

Thanks

Yes, TAMC will give you content filtering.  Also note there is (or at least was) a promo on 3 year licences, so check out the price for that as well.
