Is using PfSense as main firewall, load balancing and FailOver suggested?

Hi, my setup is 3 Xeon bronze servers of which i currently use one as PfSense box which is right now used as a routing unit, firewall and caching. I have around 100 users for this box and another 150-200 users to be added soon. I have 2 fiber optic connection to 2 different internet service providers (which as of now i connect to a Mikrotik router and from the to the PfSense) and i have 2 SFP ports i can use on the PfSense box. Should I plug in the fibers to my PfSense and do load balancing and FailOver on it or should i keep using the Mikrotik router? Suggestions very welcome. Thanks.
