[c-nsp] ASA vs ISR ZBFW

I have been wondering lately, what advantages do ASA have over ISR as
a firewall on the low end?  As just one stand alone firewall, what
features are there for ASA that distinguishes itself?  Often, I rather
have an ISR over an ASA so I have more flexibility in a budget
environment.

ASA5505-SEC-BUN-K9 is about the same price range as CISCO1921-SEC/K9 I
believe.  Which would you choose?

What am I missing that I should be using ASA instead of ISR?
