Its a RADIUS appliance with a nice GUI, but I think FreeRADIUS offers all the features that it does.

Pretty much, yes. It has other features (captive portal, etc.), but those may not be critical in your site.

Does anyone have any experience of it? Or a comparison between it and FreeRADIUS?

Also I think it may be FreeRADIUS underneath, does anyone know if that is the case?

Maybe. A number of these appliance vendors think they have value-add writing their own RADIUS server. I have no idea why... If you can get an evaluation box, do PEAP authentication, and look at the packet traces. It's pretty easy to tell FreeRADIUS from the other RADIUS servers. :) Alan DeKok.
