Juniper SRX: The best choice for enterprise firewall.
Score 9 out of 10
Vetted Review
Overall Satisfaction with Juniper SRX
We use the Juniper SRX for various purposes ranging from dedicated site-to-site VPN endpoints, to standard firewall, to all-in-one router/firewall/switching. We use the Juniper SRX for our own internal use, as well as for our clients.
Pros
- Ease and stability of configuration. Automatic rollback makes changes foolproof.
- Strong range of hardware options in all tiers.
- Common OS and configuration across all models and even other Juniper products.
Cons
- Some of the more complex setups (clustered HA, etc.) can be a little difficult to configure.
- The lowest-end model that supports true multi-site HA is relatively expensive. It would be nice to have that option in lower models.
- Some configuration options (particularly the way address book entries are done) can get tedious and make for very long configs.
- It is difficult to measure ROI, as the SRX is a basic requirement for us.
