You asked the one question that can be answered by yourself in 5 minutes ;)
pfSense has something Cisco can't offer :
If you have an older (thus non used) desktop PC somewhere, snap in a second (third etc) extra NIC, and you're to discover it for yourself.
The initial set-up will have a WAN and LAN interface, and perfectly working initial firewall rules.
Which means 'none' on WAN so nothing enters.
And a single "pas all" rule on LAN so everybody can do what she/he wants on the net.
At this moment, you'll face just one issue : your firewall will be as good as the admin guy handling it.
Typically, it could be a close to "set it and forget it installation". Just update it ones in a while.
If you want to,play with the many 'whistles and bells' : please, do understand that they work for you as long as you understand how they work.
@matinsnaff said in Is PFsense a Good Choice For a Small Business Office?:
(blocking websites that we use for no reason
Could it be true that some sites do 'break' ones in a while ? It happens to all of them.
Router/firewall do not block randomly some sites. If that happens, go for the door that says 'admin' and ask the guy behind it some questions.
Btw : there is no need to buy a device to get your hands on the manual : the manual is freely available.
