It still has proper jails and great ZFS integration. The latter will share the codebase with the Linux variant starting the next release, I think (after other players like OpenSolaris & co. dropped out). Apart from storage, networking has always been one of the things FreeBSD excels at.

It's certainly a better choice from my point of view. It comes with FreeBSD, too (although a previous version), as one of the three or so built-in packet filters to choose from.
