    Chose Forcepoint SWG
    When we had Barracuda it was not capable of SSL inspection. IronPort has some more granular aspects that I liked. What really sold me on Forcepoint was the single pane of glass for web, email and DLP.

    Chose Forcepoint SWG
    I used a Barracuda product at a previous company. It appeared to require less administration but had less functionality than Forcepoint Web Security.
