Local software firewall policy best practices

I wanted to know if the experts thought turning off local firewall software (window native) was a best practice. In the past we had always done that because we use Cisco or SonicWALL (a true firewall), software firewalls are/were weak, and they caused network comm issues. This thinking was back in XP. Now we are running Win7. Let me know what you think and WHY! Thanks! :)
