We have a 700 series.
Very easy to drop into a network, nice and easy GUI interface and excellent reporting/statistics functions.
I don't have a lot of experience of the other alternatives (Sonicwall etc) but I'm very impressed.

Been using the firebox II for 2 years and now just upgraded to Firebox III no security issues at all and easy to configure, if you can set the uni up yourself and don;t pay £1000 for some guy to install it for you waste of money I done it all myself. I can give you my suppliers details if you want to email me.
