In fairness, I believe these are subscription based services on the sonicwall (at least it was when I had a sonicwall). The same features would normally be implemented in different devices, and could still be with a mikrotik.
And I don't see a reason why something couldn't be done on the mikrotik - either natively with some scripting, or by making use of the meta-router functionality (a linux vm running on the router which you can pass traffic too and have advanced stuff done)
