pfSense Reviews

At a custom company with several locations.

It has improve my organization through the services that can be added, which makes it highly scalable, from graphic monitoring services to load balancing or captive portal.

It is very difficult to decide one, as they all complement each other, from the DHCP administration to the captive portal. in my case, I would say OpenVPN has helped me to interconnect the company network in a secure and manageable way.

ClamAV AntiVirus can cause some crashes. That service should be improved.

For two years.

I consider it very stable.

It is highly scalable. All services are free.

No, there was no firewall implemented.

The initial setup was simple and fast.

It is an open source firewall.

Yes, OPNsense. It is very similar and better than PfSense.

You should try it.

It is a stable solution. It is also easy to install and can be deployed and maintained by one team member.

pfSense has some limitations in detecting site sessions. We want to control internet usage based on sites and their content, and pfSense doesn't perform this function.

The site itself could be improved; it's not easy to find the things that you want to implement and apply.

It would be good if it had more features like Sophos does.

I've been using pfSense for two years.

It is a stable product.

The installation was easy. I was able to install it in two hours maximum. Only one person is needed for deployment and maintenance.

Currently, we don't pay for a license.

We have fifty users in our organization, and I can recommend pfSense. On a scale from one to ten, I would rate it at eight.

This solution can be used for a firewall, VPN, and VLAN.

The main features of this solution are customization and ease to use.

The configuration of the solution is a bit difficult.

I have been using the solution for one year.

The solution is stable.

I have found this solution to be scalable.

The technical support was good in my experience.

The installation is easy and can take approximately one day.

We did the implementation of the solution and we have five technicians available for implementation and maintenance.

My advice to those wanting to implement this solution is that if you are new to configuring this solution I would seek assistance. You most likely will have problems if you have not done it before.

I rate pfSense an eight out of ten.

We use pfSense as a firewall in the healthcare sector, education sector, and banking sector.

pfSense is very easy to use.

It is a better firewall than others and it has better features.

They do not provide support in India.

The security could be improved.

I have been selling pfSense for 12 years.

pfSense is a very stable solution.

We have 50 customers who use this solution.

We provide local support to our customers.

It is very easy to install.

We only need one person to install and maintain this solution.

When compared with other firewalls, the price is reasonable.

There is an open-source community version that is available.

I would rate pfSense a nine out of ten.

I am using pfSense as a secondary firewall and network management.

The most valuable features of pfSense are the reports, monitoring, filtration, and blocking incoming and outgoing traffic.

The usage reports can be better.

I have been using pfSense for approximately six years.

The solution is stable.

I had 20 to 30 users using the solution.

I have used Sophos and Cyberoam solutions.

The installation is very easy.

I did the implementation of the solution.

I am using the free version of pfSense.

I would recommend this solution to others.

I have been 100% satisfied with the solution.

I rate pfSense an eight out of ten.

Our primary use case for this solution is Endpoint Advanced. I have set it up for the firewall and the open VPN connections.

It would be great to add more to security.

I know that pfSense has a lot of features, but I don't know how to configure and enable them. That is why I am looking into my support options. I am looking for better security and performance.

I have been using this solution for almost two years.

pfSense is scalable. Currently, we have almost 30 people using it in our company.

I'm currently struggling with deploying pfSense more extensively. Right now, we are not getting much support on their end. 

My opinion about pfSense's pricing is good. They are open source. 

We use pfSense as a firewall and proxy server. We use it to apply different restrictions for different users from some data locations.

I mostly like all of it. Whatever we use is valuable.

There are some bias issues and some intrusions in our network that have to be addressed. So, we're thinking of changing this firewall to something like a professional hardware-enabled firewall.

I have been working with pfSense for many years now.

pfSense is a stable solution.

pfSense is a scalable solution. We have about 200 users in our company.

On a scale from one to ten, I would give pfSense a seven.

While it is difficult for me to point to any one specific advantage of the solution in respect of the firewall, I do know that it has many benefits. For one, it is open source. 

The stability could be improved. Whenever there is an update, in spite of developments I may have made, I am required to make certain changes to the coding. 

I have been using pfSense for perhaps two or three years. 

The stability could be better. 

The solution seems to be scalable. 

The solution is easy to set up.

I develop the solution on behalf of my company. 

With my scant knowledge of networking and the firewall I would rate pfSense as an eight out of ten.
