Lots of features, but the CLI will require some learning. Kind of a toss-up between the Edge Lite and a similarly priced Mikrotik device. I've been trying to find a reason to standardize on either of them (at the router level) for my clients, but I haven't yet found a good reason to do so.

If you buy the units from them it includes support as well. https://www.pfsense.org/products/ -- There are 10 kinds of people in the world... those who understand binary and those who don't.
