"This product provides good visibility into applications at the backend."
"Offers a lot of functionality."
"The presentation layer is pretty simple and straightforward."
"The granular access control that it provided so that you could only see devices that were related to what you were working on was great. I couldn't see the entire inventory of devices. I could only see the ones that were related to my work. It has got a very granular access control component."
"The most valuable feature of this solution is the stability, it's actually tailored for that."
"The solution offers good network performance and efficiency."
"FortiGate Cloud has many features that we like. For example, we're using it for security incident management, threat intelligence, and vulnerabilities check. It's integrated with several Fortinet tools like FortiAnalyzer and FortiSandbox controlled through FortiManager."
"We have found the most valuable features of Fortinet FortiGate Cloud are the firewall and the VPN connection manager. I am not worried about any cyber attacks, the solution is secure and I receive daily summary reports."
"I have found centralized administration, cloud UI, and visibility and security on all networks valuable features."
"The solution works well for remote or branch offices."
"It's quite easy to use, and it's easy to find the necessary information from the web."

"It takes some time to learn how to use this solution."
"Huawei devices are not properly supported, and there are incompatibility issues related to certain protocols."
"DX Spectrum could be improved by them getting rid of the Java console. It would also be better with Turkish language support."
"The solution could improve by allowing the ability to monitor the network shortly after installing the software and adding an auto-discovery function."
"The visual is a little archaic."
"Its visualization can be improved. It doesn't have a very advanced GUI. It is very basic and simple, but it does work."
"Technical support for this product is not so good. It needs improvement."
"Integration with some other tools, and integration with some Network Packet Broker, need some improvement."
"Lacks some security against external attacks."
"Things are moving increasingly towards hardware agnostic appliances, an area in which I would like Fortinet to be more focused and fast moving with that product line."
"Currently with the solution, if you want to manage more than one FortiGate you have to use a VM, and a VM can control up to 10."
"When we're upgrading, it's sometimes quite challenging, especially firmware. We usually don't upgrade unless we have a bug, and we still feel it's not safe to react instead of being proactive. We often have some delays when updating FortiGuard, too."
"It is currently durable, but they may be able to improve it further. They can adapt Cisco technology because of its durability."
"I would like to see better integration with other technologies."
"The command-line interface could definitely be improved in future iterations. It's lacking right now."
"They're still trying to digest that Meru acquisition and need a plan."
