Once again, different markets, different devices, different capabilities. Sophos home doesn't have anything good like ML and Sandstorm anyway. The AV scanning on UTM's isn't very useful anymore since most malware is delivered over HTTPS. IPS and URL scanning are nice, but XG Home is pretty average. Fortinet is going to be vastly superior if you don't have an XG appliance with Sandstorm and ML, Watchguard beats both with Cylance, Bit Defender, Cyren, Forcepoint, Lastline and Trend Micro techs integrated by default.
Anyway, we're talking about home mesh wifi routers with UTM features that an average joe in the home can utilize without any additional skillset/knowledge. Not Fortinet, Untangle, XG, XG Home, Checkpoint, Watchguard, or whatever. I can talk UTM/NGFW's all day long, it's what I do for a living so I am happy to do that as well.
