We performed a comparison between Fortinet FortiSandbox and Palo Alto Networks WildFire based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Advanced Threat Protection (ATP) solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."FortiSandbox analyzes the behavior of processes in a sandbox environment, which is useful for threat hunting. The solution has an excellent standard configuration, and you can prioritize the types of files of VMs you want to analyze. It also integrates seamlessly with other Fortinet solutions, like FortiGate, FortiMail, and FortiEMS."
"The scanner office document as well as PDF are useful. The most valuable thing is that you can emulate different operating systems without having the danger of getting something infected. It emulates several operating systems, and as a result, you either get the file or you don't get the file."
"The analysis engine is a very valuable feature."
"Fortinet FortiSandbox is faster than other sandbox solutions."
"The most valuable feature is the protection and the way it works, the technology is what I like the most."
"The most valuable feature of the solution is that the performance it offers to users is good, making it useful for us in our company."
"The solution has the highest stability...The solution's setup is not complex as they are already included in Fortinet."
"he solution's GUI is good."
"The most valuable features of this solution are sandbox capabilities."
"WildFire has been instrumental in blocking a number of new threats, before common desktop anti-virus tools were able to detect them."
"The most valuable feature of this solution is how it keeps up-to-date with viruses."
"The cloud-based services are a nice feature."
"Installing this product as a datacenter firewall for segregation and segmentation, and also configuring policies between zones has improved my organization."
"I love the idea of Palo Alto Networks WildFire. It's more geared toward preventing malware. If someone's laptop or phone is malware-infected, the tool prevents it from uploading valuable corporate data outside the corporate network. That's what I love about Palo Alto Networks WildFire. It stops malware in its tracks."
"They have many different options with Palo Alto WildFire and the set-up is quick. If you have all the details in hand, it does not take more than 15 minutes to deploy a firewall."
"The reporting feature helps our performance."
"It should be easier to import custom virtual machines. Some of the VMs that are in FortiSandbox don't have the applications that we have in our environment. We need to import a VM with specific applications that we use in our environment. Have all the licenses because this is a real environment. You need a license for the Windows client you run on it. It's possible to import custom VMs, but it's a pain to do it. I would like a tool that simplifies the process."
"Fortinet FortiSandbox can improve by decreasing the time of analysis response. Other solutions have a better response time, such as WildFire."
"The response time from technical support should be improved."
"Not practical for real-time web traffic analysis because users won't wait for the FortiSandbox to complete its analysis before accessing content"
"At least once a week we have a false alarm. This needs to be adjusted so that we get fewer of these occurrences."
"There could be more templates and a higher number of simulated VMs to configure more use cases. Sometimes we need to configure many use cases in many different environments, and if the number of VMs that we configure is limited, we have to remove some and reconfigure the environment if we need another environment."
"Most people are confused about how to use the right integration of the right Fortinet product."
"In the next release, I would like to see machine learning and anti-exploitation included."
"The global product feature needs improvement, the VPN, and we need some enhanced features."
"The size of Palo Alto's cloud is big but it could be easier to use from a product management perspective."
"The VPN and decryption need improvement."
"There are certain changes that I was expecting in the previous version, and I hope that they are soon fixed. All of the problems that I have faced so far have been resolved."
"There are some formats that the solution cannot support ."
"In the future, Palo Alto could reduce the time it takes to process the file."
"The solution can improve its traffic management."
"The initial setup was complex."
