{"quote":"There are no bugs or glitches.","score":"8"}

{"quote":"The solution is very stable.","score":"9"}

{"quote":"It makes the solution reliable.","score":"8"}

{"quote":"An open-source solution like pfSense gives us stability and provides us with good reports.","score":"9"}

{"quote":"It doesn't fail.","score":"9"}

{"quote":"Otherwise, the platform is rock solid.","score":"8"}

{"quote":"You have to look into it every day or every once in a while and if any new traits or new protection mechanisms need to be built, upgraded, or re-tuned, you have to do that.","score":"7"}

{"quote":"In terms of stability, once it's configured and properly tuned, it will do its job.","score":"9"}

{"quote":"My only complaint is when there is a power outage pfSense requires a manual reset.","score":"7"}

{"quote":"It's completely reliable in terms of resources that it needs to run.","score":"8"}

{"quote":"The stability of the solution is very good.","score":"8"}

{"quote":"It's been very good over the years.","score":"7"}

{"quote":"Its performance is reliable.","score":"8"}

{"quote":"Stability-wise, it's fine. I've only experienced one issue in the last 10 months.","score":"8"}

{"quote":"I have no issues with it at all.","score":"7"}

{"quote":"With some systems, there's a necessity to regularly redo the configurations inside the system. With Pfsense, that's not the case.","score":"8"}

{"quote":"This solution is absolutely stable.","score":"9"}

{"quote":"It's been reliable.","score":"7"}

{"quote":"It doesn't crash or freeze.","score":"8"}

{"quote":"There aren't bugs or glitches.","score":"9"}

{"quote":"We've had zero issues.","score":"9"}

{"quote":"The solution is very stable.","score":"8"}

{"quote":"A limited number of our engineers work with it.","score":"5"}

{"quote":"It didn't affect any services, but it was a little annoying that we needed to restart the PHP often.","score":"5"}

{"quote":"There are limits as to who we can put to work on the solution.","score":"6"}

{"quote":"I had stability issues only with a GUI that used to hang.","score":"6"}

{"quote":"It's just that it's not as easy to use as SonicWall.","score":"8"}

{"quote":"Our appliance is under constant heavy load by several services, and it's rock solid stable.","score":"9"}

{"quote":"The stability is very good.","score":"7"}

{"quote":"Since no one is really managing the solution, and no one takes ownership of it, there aren't many fixes that happen on it.","score":"9"}

{"quote":"There are glitches.","score":"7"}

{"quote":"It is one of the pros.","score":"6"}

{"quote":"The stability is questionable.","score":"8"}

{"quote":"pfSense is quite stable.","score":"8"}

{"quote":"It doesn't take too many resources and it's very stable.","score":"9"}

{"quote":"The utilization of the CPU, etc., it's very low.","score":"8"}

{"quote":"I had to use pfSense Community Edition on a general desktop. That was done within three hours.","score":"7"}

{"quote":"pfSense is very stable.","score":"9"}

{"quote":"That makes it very stable.","score":"6"}

{"quote":"The pfSense installation at high speeds failed over perfectly though.","score":"8"}

{"quote":"pfSense is more stable and reliable if you install it directly on the server, i.e. not being installed as a virtual machine.","score":"9"}

{"quote":"I depend on and use VMware ESXi with vSphere in my deployment, virtualization.","score":"8"}

{"quote":"Even though their online documents claim that pfSense can run on flash drives, it really just breaks the flash drive after a month or less.","score":"9"}

{"quote":"They've really made a rock solid solution.","score":"9"}

{"quote":"I tried running pfSense on a USB flash drive.","score":"6"}

{"quote":"We have not encountered any stability issues and have upgraded to each version over the years.","score":"9"}

{"quote":"It seems to run stable, as long as the hardware is good.","score":"8"}

{"quote":"I just installed and restored my configuration and that was it. No biggy.","score":"5"}

{"quote":"After some research, it was due to an unsupported package that I had installed which the new version didn't like.","score":"7"}

{"quote":"One time, while upgrading, the system crashed and had to install from scratch.","score":"6"}

{"quote":"Close to none.","score":"8"}

{"quote":"So they're usually on the spot.","score":"7"}

{"quote":"Even when they're in the middle of deploying a new version, I've reached out and received a download link within five minutes.","score":"10"}

{"quote":"I've been surprised by how fast they respond sometimes.","score":"8"}

{"quote":"The turnaround time was always excellent, just a couple of minutes.","score":"9"}

{"quote":"This issue doesn't affect pfSense, but it is the root cause of a hung ADSL modem.","score":"8"}

{"quote":"When working with load balancing ADSL modems, I've noticed that pfSense 'fools' the modem and it becomes unresponsive until it is restarted.","score":"9"}

{"quote":"I received the replacement box within a couple of days.","score":"7"}

{"quote":"We would need to soft reboot the system manually after a power failure to get the DHCP functioning again.","score":"9"}

{"quote":"I did contact them for a replacement box, and their support was fantastic.","score":"8"}

{"quote":"Sometimes there are issues if there are some complex configurations.","score":"7"}

{"quote":"I believe that the issue of stability that we encountered was linked to our hardware limitation.","score":"8"}

{"quote":"I got terrible kernel crashes on HP laptops while trying to setup WLAN, but it worked better on Fujitsu ones.","score":"8"}

{"quote":"The only thing that could take down my network, would be a lack of power to the hosts, or all of my ISP tanks at the same time.","score":"7"}

{"quote":"I've enabled the HA features, and spread them across multiple ESXi hosts.","score":"9"}

{"quote":"The electrical supply was jumping, and playing about, and when it was happening pfSense stopped.","score":"9"}

{"quote":"The pfSense OS is stable, but if the service packages are not updated to their new version when the OS is updated, we can't use those features.","score":"9"}

{"quote":"Stability is not a concern.","score":"8"}

{"quote":"One of our customers had an issue with their electrical stability.","score":"7"}

{"quote":"In the past, they have even joined meetings with us and a client to work on a problem, providing a lot of insight and assistance throughout the process.","score":"9"}

{"quote":"Usually, the issues I had were kind of self-inflicted wounds, and they walked right through everything with me with great continuity.","score":"9"}

{"quote":"If we encounter someone who doesn't have the answer immediately, they can find it very quickly.","score":"7"}

{"quote":"I imagine the paid version has good support.","score":"5"}

{"quote":"They followed through very well when I had issues.","score":"8"}

{"quote":"The few times we've had to engage support, they have been professional and incredibly knowledgeable.","score":"8"}

{"quote":"They are pretty quick. I can get help within an hour even with just the free version.","score":"8"}

{"quote":"If the unit loses power and comes back on every once in a while, the file system gets corrupted, or it won't boot the device, and you have to reimage the whole thing.","score":"9"}
