Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I've dealt with 4 of these and all I can say is be very weary of upgrading if you are switching these out from a PIX. The PIX 6.x series software were so robust and stable. Now that they retired that line and started the ASA's with the 7.x/8.x code, they are prone to massive bugs and it takes a lot of wasted time researching Cisco articles to find all the tweaks and fixes to make them operational.
Specifically, after switching out our PIX to these newer Cisco ASA models, nothing but problems with massive VPN fragmentation and obscure packet dropping unrelated to ACLs. I had to go back to the PIX at one site due to too many problems with DNS lookups/simple web browsing/FTP connections. I feel they branched out with too many versions of their software images and failed to develop one stable version. Also, the java GUI is a joke, guessing it was an attempt at making it friendlier to configure/monitor but just fails in every aspect.
