Automatic updates - well checking, it still requires you to say 'do it'.

FreeNAS runs as an embedded OS. You don't install it; you dump the image 
to a USB flash drive and boot from that. Very simple to deploy, much 
pain to install security updates. PC-BSD and TrueOS are full 
installations like vanilla FreeBSD. More work to install, less hassle to 
update.
