Your firewall should be an electronic representation of your network
security policy, so you really need to pick a firewall based on what your
company's unique needs are.
Now, having said that, I will admit that I have found MS Proxy to be an
adequate firewall solution (as well as cost effective solution) for most
of the small companies for which I have setup internet access. My only
real complaint is: if you want your clients to be able to do something
other than browse the web, you really need to install the MS Proxy client.
Unfortunately, the client is only written for MS platforms (which prompted
me to go with custom Linux firewall for my own network).
MS Proxy is (I believe) about $995.
