Find out what your peers are saying about Netgate, Fortinet, OPNsense and others in Firewalls."I only deal with it from a security analyst's point of view. I don't really get into the features of the actual FortiGate. From the security point of view, it works, and it does its job."
"This solution made it very easy to manage our bandwidth."
"It is a safe product."
"The solution is very user-friendly."
"FortiGate is flexible and easy to use."
"Using this product makes the VPN seamless and almost invisible to me in the sense that I don't have to think about it."
"We can detect any attack of viruses or malware at the first point of contact."
"The payment function for applications is good."
"The VPN allows users to connect remotely and securely."
"It does give certain protection for everything that is well configured on our McAfee server. We have good protection with it. If we could find a feature and make it work, it would work perfectly, there would be no bugs, and it would be really good."
"I don't really have anything negative to say as far as Fortinet firewalls are concerned. If anything, they can support a user a little bit better. They can stop being so time-sensitive about how much time the support call has taken, and they can help you do it yourself."
"It should provide better visibility over the network and more information in the form of reports for the end users. Its installation should also be easier."
"Scalability for Fortinet FortiGate needs to be improved. SD-WAN security for this solution also needs some improvement."
"Some configuration elements cannot be easily altered once created."
"Fortinet FortiGate could improve by having more storage in the hardware for log data."
"It is very expensive, and their support is not very good. I hope that their technical support will be better in the future."
"The product does need better support in the cloud environment. It's not exactly cloud-native right now."
"We would like to see an upgrade to the VPN feature, we are using the VPN from outside of our office and there is a limitation to 10 connections, more connections would be suitable."
"Multi-factor authentication would have been a plus in security at the time."
"Customer support and AV are both lacking and are really hard to come to you when the product is installed. Those are the two major points that they need to work on."
