Automation streamlines workflow and integrates seamlessly with various applications
I serve as both a reseller and customer of Fortinet FortiSOAR. The solution is suitable for all types of businesses from small to enterprise. The integration capability of Fortinet FortiSOAR deserves a rating of 10. It can be integrated with any system, and we have the capability for custom connectors. Even if Fortinet FortiSOAR doesn't have a specific connector, you can easily create a custom connector using AI. Simply provide your requirements or solution needs, and Fortinet FortiSOAR will create the connector, enabling integration with any application. My final rating for Fortinet FortiSOAR would be 10 out of 10, where one is bad and ten is good.

Great documentation, good technical support, and very in-depth
The initial setup can be complex. I would advise users to leverage all of the access with Palo Alto, in terms of setting up with the technical account management teams. They need to ensure that what they have in mind for the product is actually going to be what happens. I have not run into any problems with deploying the product. Any of their security products are well-documented, either with open source intelligence or the documentation from Palo Alto. We had a client with less than a thousand users that received a dedicated engineer and a technical account manager that was able to walk them through the first 90 days of ownership. The support is certainly there.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"The product can be automated for network security purposes. The solution offers a great security automation response."
"The most valuable feature of Fortinet FortiSOAR is the number of available connectors and the simplicity to start to automate."
"The reputation of the brand is very good."
"It is a scalable solution...The implementation phase of the product was not tough or difficult."
"The solution's most valuable feature is playbook creation, which allows us to integrate all data ingestion into the same platform."
"The initial setup is straightforward."
"The good news is that FortiSOAR is not hard to maintain. If you prepared well and deployed strong initially, then maintenance will take half an hour every other week, not more than that. A single person can do it."
"The most fascinating aspect of FortiSOAR is its modern and simple to understand and operate dashboards."
"It basically automates the entire alert investigation process."
"The ease of deployment is a valuable feature."
"Technical support is great. Palo Alto is extremely helpful and responsive."
 

Cons

"FortiSOAR needs to improve the response time for executing playbooks."

"The solution doesn't connect well with the network devices."
"The tool's user interface is an area of concern where improvements are needed."
"The technology and integrations are important so should continue to be enhanced."
"I don't currently see where the solution is lacking features. For us and for our clients it works very well and we're pleased with it."
"Fortinet's tech support overall is not great when they are at their best."
"Fortinet FortiSOAR's dashboard is not easy to understand."
"The price should be reduced in order to be more competitive in the market."
"Many will try to use this as an out-of-the-box solution, however, it needs to be configured to fit what a company would like to do with it."
"Maybe the notifications setting could use a simpler setting."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The price of the product should be lower. The brand value that Fortinet has, it has the reputation of being a reasonably priced product, and they have an enormous customer base in India. Most of the SME market is covered by FortiGate firewalls. It becomes an easy way for consultants, such as us, or even system integrators, to open the door with the Fortinet product lines."
"Fortinet FortiSOAR is an expensive solution."
"Pricing is fine compared to other solutions."
"The solution offers both licensing and subscription models that are similar in price to other products."
"Considering all the features of Fortinet FortiSOAR, I think it has a good price."
"Fortinet FortiSOAR is expensive."
"Since Africa is struggling with foreign exchange, the solution is pretty expensive there."
"If you compare Fortinet FortiSOAR's price with the prices of the market leader, Palo Alto, then it can be considered a cheaper product."
"Be sure of the actual number of endpoints in your company."
"The price of this solution is the highest in the market, although there are no costs in addition to the standard licensing fees."
