"Fortinet FortiGate Cloud has security features like DDoS protection and UTM.""The solution includes a very stable VPN and IPS.""We use the solution for routing and cloud security. We have multiple offices nationwide, all connected through the MPRS network, which is terminated at our FortiGate firewall. We consolidate our networks, filter packets, and segment our network through this firewall. My company has around three lakh firewalls.""One firewall box can contain various top-of-the-line services that are packaged together for easy administration.""Our customers implement this solution so that they can be assured of security in their environment.""The most valuable features of Fortinet FortiGate Cloud are the protection of internal and remote systems.""It's easy to use and the fact that I can schedule the report to come to my inbox at set times is very convenient for me.""Fortinet FortiGate Cloud has good pricing compared to other firewall and security products."

Cons
"The solution can improve the integration with open-source tools.""The price is okay. This said, the solution is certainly expensive in comparison with other cloud services.""There should be a simple one-click deployment for a firewall, rather than a set of setup instructions that include steps such as the DNS configuration, et cetera.""We could do only one-way NAT-ing, where the traffic comes from outside to internal, to Azure, which is fine. However, when we actually do NAT-ed traffic to hit the firewall, that way is not working.""The tool's security features need to improve. It needs also to include a monitoring system for logs. It is also complicated to find a query on the Azure firewall."

More Azure Firewall Manager Cons →

"Fortinet FortiGate Cloud could improve the dashboards.""The platform's reporting and analysis capabilities need improvement.""If you need to scale, you do need to trade up to a new Fortinet solution.""The solution could improve by having a Russian interface.""Reporting is an area that can be enhanced.""We've not seen any areas for improvement.""It is currently durable, but they may be able to improve it further. They can adapt Cisco technology because of its durability.""However, the absence of certain features like CLI is a drawback."
