I think it's just dependent on how much you want to spend regarding the bandwidth. Barracuda has the 310 model + higher for more bandwidth same with Forefront.

How large a company are we talking about?

I've used Websense that integrated with a Cisco ASA and that was pretty nice.

Yeah Barracuda sucks for the user. I can only get around some google searches with a cache search. But I can't even google with the words You Tube or I get blocked. I don't have experience on the IT side since I'm not IT.
