Existing Cisco vs Sophos UTM

A potential client is moving into an office with the following kit which can be had for $4k AUD.:

Qty Equipment

1 Cisco ASA 5506-X firewall with FirePOWER services

2 Cisco Catalyst 2960-X 24 port Gigabit PoE switches

2 Catalyst 2960 Stacking Module

1 Meraki MR18 Cloud managed wireless access point

10 HP Elite desk 400 G2 (PC including Monitor)

1 HP Colour LaserJet Printer/Scanner/Copier

I would normally use a Sophos UTM sg135 for this sized office of 10 people with a 400/400 Mbps pipe.

I don't know Cisco so I'd need to partner with a Cisco Engineer to maintain it.

We also need to set up a voip system as well.

Should I keep the Cisco or stick with the Sophos I'm used to.
