Would you mind summarizing some of the functionality that the Cisco line
doesn't have (or is better)?

I already know about managing multiple firewalls. So, feel free to leave
that out.

Just so you know I'd rather CLI instead of using CP GUI.

I'd like to learn from someone with way more CP experience than me. Thanks.

Back in the days even before Juniper bought Netscreen they were making Layer
7 firewalls and selling for a fraction of the price as a comparable Cisco
PIX. Now Juniper raised the price on the product quite significantly but I
would put the Netscreen/Juniper in the same class as a Checkpoint in terms
of functionality, which IMHO the ASAs still cannot touch.

My opinion, can't be changed and all flames will be sent to the bit bucket.

Have anything newer? I'd be very interested in seeing that as my customer
loves netscreens and I want to push ASAs.
