We run one of their firewalls and it's pretty good, but between the security issues, and overhauling the licensing between 6.0 and 6.2 release, it's got me considering ditching it when we upgrade our network in the new year.

Out of curiosity, what are you considering? I'm shopping as well.

Palo alto is highly regarded among the firewalls.

We're having absolute misery with their support at present. Panorama's not been logging data for 45 days now. They've just completely missed the last two teleconfs.
