Vasu Gala - PeerSpot reviewer
A stable solution with an intuitive interface and quick customer service
I have been working with Fortinet FortiGate, WatchGuard, Sophos, and SonicWall. I'm not as comfortable with SonicWall because of their UI and limitations. I prefer Fortinet above all other options. When it comes to configuration, I am confident in my ability to handle various tasks, including creating policies such as firewall rules, web policies, and application policies. Additionally, I can configure VPNs and implement load balancing, among other tasks. Overall, I feel much more comfortable working with Fortinet. Fortinet has made significant improvements by integrating AI with firewalls for threat analysis and prevention. In the past 2-3 years, they have launched FortiSASE and SIEM, and they also provide SOC services. Both Palo Alto and Fortinet FortiGate are excellent. While Fortinet FortiGate comes at higher prices, the functionality and support justify the cost. They promptly resolve firmware issues and inform all support providers about configuration changes.

Provides virus protection but needs improvement in the area of policy implementation
The product has a lot to improve in the area of policy implementation. If our company wants to give a separate policy to a particular client, user or system, it is very difficult to manage it. There is no categorization in the web filter option. If you want to search for a particular content to be blocked in the web filter, the search option is not there. You have to manually choose the option in the tool and then check it.

Versatile, user-friendly, and allows websites to grow seamlessly with increasing traffic
In my 15 years of experience with WordPress, one improvement I would suggest is addressing the challenge of testing plugins. While there are thousands available, many free versions are not fully functional. Access to fully functional commercial plugins often requires purchasing with dollars, which can be challenging for users facing financial constraints or difficulties obtaining foreign currency. Simplifying the process of testing and providing feedback on commercial plugins could enhance the overall user experience in future releases.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Fortinet offers the latest versions to cater to the needs of enterprises."
"Its stability is the most valuable."
"The next-gen features, the unified threat management capabilities are something that just about everybody is interested in at this point."
"The most useful features in Fortinet FortiGate are the security features, where we can analyze what kind of traffic is inside our network, and we also utilize ZTNA for limiting and managing our network access."
"It's safe and secures my network and applications in some sites."
"The initial setup is easy."
"This solution made it very easy to manage our bandwidth."
"The product is highly stable."
"The product's initial setup phase is easy."
"Phish Blocker is a valuable feature."
"The most valuable features of WordPress by AMIMOTO are its optimized performance, scalability, and stability."
 

Cons

"The people we are working with are not able to configure MFA. They are having some technical issues. Fortinet needs to ensure that its partners are well-trained."
"Fortinet currently has many products bundled with FortiGate including the basic firewall and load balancer, and I think that that they need to have separate product portfolios for each of these specialized services."
"There are a lot of bugs I have found in the solution and it is difficult to upgrade. These areas need improvement."
"Zero trust could be added. Nowadays, solutions like Zscaler, Netskope, and even SecureWorks combine multiple features into a single product."
"We are providing VoIP and the IP licensing could improve in Fortinet FortiGate SWG."
"The most important feature to have is zero trust, which is lacking in Fortinet FortiGate IPS."
"I would like to see improvements in Fortinet FortiGate regarding the active-active scenario. The active-active scenario is supported but not recommended, whereas other vendors are implementing active-active without issues."
"During a recent upgrade from old devices to the latest ones, corporate IT faced challenges as there was no straightforward migration process, requiring many manual steps."
"The documentation is not clear."
"The product has a lot to improve in the area of policy implementation."
"One improvement I would suggest is addressing the challenge of testing plugins."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The pricing for the product is alright."
"Here in Brazil, we're going through difficult economic times and the tax on the dollar is high. All the solutions from minor competitors are growing in the market. The prices have come more competitive."
"The price is okay, so far so good."
"It is not expensive as compared to Cisco."
"Its licenses cost the same for different subscription plans."
"If the customer is looking for SD-WAN, it comes free with FortiGate."
"For the price, I'd rate it a ten because it's very cost-effective."
"Fortigate's pricing is competitive."
"I consider it an averagely-priced tool."
"The tool is quite cheap."
