Provides quick access to resources
We are a radio station who serves up music It has improved our organization by providing quick access to resources. CDN Speed  Data center availability around the world This product satisfies our company needs. No additional features are required as far as we are concerned. More than five…
Yazan Omar - PeerSpot reviewer
An easy-to-use tool with great GUI
The product's initial setup phase was really easy. There is a lot of time involved in the testing phase and other processes related to the area of deployment, so it may take up to two weeks to deploy the solution. The solution is deployed on an on-premises model. One person is enough to take care of the deployment phase of the product. The person involved in the deployment phase needs to better understand topologies when dealing with Fortinet.
