Have 15 users...upgrading from a Linksys WRT54g...i know i know. They have a SBS2003 server and 15 workstations...pretty basic, so this is a big step.

Thought about getting an ASA 5505 Unlimited User Sec Plus, but its around a $1000, and even though the owner is fairly tech competent, not sure he could make changes himself.

Was looking on Junipers Site and they have the SRX100 and its around $500. What do you guys think of the SRX line of products? Never seen their GUI so im not sure how intuitive it is.

What about sonicwall, zyxel, HP?

Priorities: 1) get a firewall/UTM 2) Warranty 3) Ease of use 4) Price

EDIT: needs to handle dual ISP..ideally 4g USB

I think Untangle would fit your needs better if you're unsure of the owners technical level.

Easy config, and I don't really see anything you won't be able to do. You can get warrantied hardware VIA UntangleAppliances, and then Untangle has its own official support system for the software.
 
I think Sonicwall or Zyxel are both good choices in terms of usability, support, and price.
I think finding any UTM/Firewall device that supports 4G LTE/Wi-Max might be difficult. When I was looking at a solution for failover to 4G Clear I found one of the only solutions was to get a Cradlepoint device and handoff to ethernet.

Netgear PROsecure UTM


^ agree with the eww, the through put on the netgear's are SHIT!


Sonicwall TZ210 OR a untangle box, and can be built and put together for pretty cheap.

The sonicwall will work with the fail over external usb stick with any provider..
