"Templates and the possibility to apply a configuration to many devices at the same time are the most valuable features. We are able to create templates, and we don't need to go to each firewall to make changes. We can make changes in Panorama, and it automatically applies those changes to all those firewalls on which we want to apply the changes. It provides centralized management."
"All of the reports and events from different locations can be managed centrally."
"In the email security modules they have in their UTM, maybe they can include more extended or expanded features for the email security where users can have their own portal login to release blocked emails, as an example."

"I would like to see more reporting from the analysis improved in the future."

"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 it comes to technical support, the problem we have found is that if an issue comes, it takes a day to get everything resolved. It could be faster. They can be better at optimizing how they answer tickets in terms of response times. There must be ways to make the process more streamlined. It would make it easier for their clients."
"Reporting is an area that can be enhanced."
"The licensing is a little bit confusing and needs to be improved."
"Panorama needs to work on its configuration issues."
"I would like to see remote VPN, like the Cisco client."
"An area for improvement would be the connectivity, which sometimes means logs can be slow to display."
"I would like more dashboard management."
"Reporting might be an area to improve. It can provide reporting or some sort of graphical representation of your environment."
"There is room for improvement in the integration within endpoint detection. They need to do some integration between endpoints and the firewalls."
"The product could offer more integration with other solutions."
"It would be beneficial to improve the capabilities of Panorama to handle logs more efficiently, potentially reducing the need for additional local collectors. Adding more predefined dashboards as features would enhance the monitoring and reporting capabilities."
