"The solution is easy to configure and deploy."
"L-7 protection makes possible to protect legacy/not up-to-date servers/applications without changing the application code."
"It is a good product. We have just blocked everything coming from some geographical locations or certain countries, and it has been working very efficiently when I look at logs, events, and incidents generated from the system. It is generating very good analytic reports about it. This is the most valuable thing about this solution. It has load balancing and almost everything that a web application firewall needs. It is very flexible and easy to learn and configure. It can be easily learned and configured by using the information available on different channels such as YouTube."
"SSL Offloading simplifies the public certificate handling and brings additional protection features."
"The customers are very happy with this solution because of two things. First, the IPS integration with a web application is very tightly done on Fortinet. Second, the ease of use is there. The management interface or the GUI interface is very easy to use, configure, and manage. These are the two main valuable features. It supports integration with other Fortinet products. It also integrates very well with the firewall and sandboxing technology. They already have enough integration with different technologies. They have got a complete tech intelligence view of the whole product."
"Provides good vulnerability scanning, IPS, and geolocalization."
"The most valuable feature is the web application firewall (WAF)."
"The three most valuable features that I noticed are the geo-localization of the user, the IP reputation, and the compartmental analysis."
"No solution is 100% secure and the security could always be worked on."
"In terms of performance, it needs to be more robust."
"FortiGate could be improved on the security end because we've had some incidents with the customer. Otherwise, there is no problem."
"It would also be helpful if they could introduce easier reporting. It's good to have those reports that go to C-level management, and Fortinet does provide some graphs, but if they went into some more detail, that would be great."
"For advanced users, it would be really useful to have access and the ability to manipulate packets. If we can access and manipulate the contents of packets, even encrypted packets... that would be powerful. Since we're looking at packets arriving at our network, we would have the private key to access those packets and their information."
"We would like the interface to be easier to use and more user-friendly. The interface needs to be enhanced."
"The GUI could be better. It's limited."
"It is not entirely user-friendly."
"The area that should be improved is licensing."
