Find out what your peers are saying about Cisco, Fortinet, Broadcom and others in Network Management Applications."The most valuable feature of DataMiner is its comprehensiveness. It provides an open driver that allows you to customize and program each aspect of the system. Additionally, there are many separate modules available that can be used to enhance the system's capabilities beyond just monitoring, allowing you to manage your entire workflow. This is a valuable feature that makes troubleshooting easier and helps to optimize the use of the system."
"The solution is user-friendly and is readily customizable, which allows us to do control and monitoring in a single stage."
"Data Miner allows you to take control. It has an API to talk to different products, including drivers to talk to the APIs of third-party products. You can control it from the screen."
"Fortinet FortiGate Cloud has security features like DDoS protection and UTM."
"The ability to manage everything from the cloud is going to be the most valuable by far with this solution."
"The VPN features are the most valuable."
"It's user-friendly."
"Fortinet FortiGate Cloud has valuable firewall, SSL VPN, and web filtering features."
"The most valuable feature is the inspection. It inspects before we have any traffic stops intrusion."
"The solution offers good network performance and efficiency."
"The sandboxing feature is very important."
"I am looking forward to the company continuing to improve its solution and incorporate new technologies. Specifically, I hope that they will allow their cloud database environment to host services, rather than requiring the use of on-premises digital or physical servers. The company is moving in this direction, but I am still waiting for this capability to be implemented."
"We would like to have more products supported by the drivers because there are so many products out there. If DataMiner has not built the drivers to support them we can not control them, we can only see them based on SNMP. If more drivers are included, it won't cost us if we have new products."
"I would like to see a SIEM bundled together with this because customers are looking into better reporting and more proactive security solutions."
"The capacity to execute the solution needs to be improved. I would like to see management and analytics included in the solution."
"Fortinet should simplify the licensing model. It's too complex for decision-makers to choose from the range of options. Handling the pricing model is a nightmare, so it's difficult to sell the solution."
"Reporting is an area that can be enhanced."
"The solution should allow users to keep the data for longer than the current periods. I can't get any historic data after more than a month. I would like to be able to, after a year, look for trends from the past 12 months. It would make things much easier."
"The command-line interface could definitely be improved in future iterations. It's lacking right now."
"We needed to do some training to be able to implement Fortinet FortiGate Cloud and after the training, we did the implementation in-house."
"We need some integration or communication between the endpoint and the firewall."
