I've used ASA-X, Checkpoint and Palo in anger, give me a Palo anyday (and pay for Panorama if you have more than one cluster)

I'd be immediately concerned with using the same vendor at multiple levels in your security stack.  Defence in depth should apply here - a different vendor/product at each layer.

My current employer is a Check Point customer, but I also find the Palo Alto story quite interesting, particularly in the NGFW space.

We are replacing our older ASA5520 Firewall.  We currently use Sophos for end point protection.  Has anyone have any pros/cons using Sophos XG?
