Integrating the tool with other solutions is very easy, so there is no problem with the product. I suggest other people take the best from the product since it is a really good solution. I would not change to a different product extension from Fortinet FortiGate Cloud as it makes you feel safe. If a customer wants to save his or her company, then it is better to get Fortinet FortiGate Cloud because it is one of the best solutions with which you can manage everything, like access points, switches, VLANs, and splitting of NAT, from one place. You can do it all from one point. With FortiGate, you can manage the VLANs, and you have them in every place, every switch, and every port. You can select the VLAN and the tool works. If Fortinet can become better, then it is even better. I rate the tool a ten out of ten.
