There is really nothing coming to mind. When I use software/hardware, I learn how it needs to be configured for my requirements. Sometimes that is intuitive, and other times it is clunky. Overall this product has been intuitive.

The firewall is:
1. Allowing and disallowing internet traffic (external and internal governance)
2. Defining the office network rules and permissions across network segments and vlans
3. Email delivery and filtering
4. Branch connections to the head office network
