Find out what your peers are saying about Netgate, Fortinet, OPNsense and others in Firewalls."There are great templates, so you don't have to customize them if you don't want to. You do have the option to custom create some folders and some reports, however, with what is there, you don't really need to go through extra effort, as they already give you a lot of predefined views of reports and so forth."
"It is a good source for firewall protection."
"I like that they have given me a solution at a fair price."
"The ability to set up remote systems is the most valuable feature."
"The feature I like most is the SD-WAN. It allows you to manage more than one ISP at the same time. And there is a high-availability mode, so if one of your ISPs is down, you still have a backup."
"The most valuable features of the solution are SD-WAN, filtering testing applications, web filtering, and the new VPN."
"Fortinet FortiGate is a stable solution."
"The technical support in our region is excellent."
"We've found the technical support to be helpful."
"Sophos UTM's best feature is SIM in the cloud, which combines the gateway solution and endpoint solution to send telemetry data to the cloud and provides full contact visibility regarding security."
"Sophos UTM is the simplest of these products to setup."
"It is easy to manage."
"They are all good, but most-used are Network Protection and Web Filtering."
"Sophos UTM has improved the porting section. It has improved security by seeing the gaps. For example, when you discover that an entry has been using a certain application, with Sophos UTM acting as a Layer 7 firewall, you can block the application, not the port."
"Sophos SG UTM had all the basic functionality that you needed. It is user-friendly and easy to manage for any integrator."
"Configuration could not be made any easier."
"There are just some services that aren't available. For example, the Ethernet or point-to-point protocols. They could add these services to their product offering - especially services for ISPs."
"I would like to see better pricing in the next release, as well as a simplification of the installation."
"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."
"The room for improvement is about the global delivery time period. Usually I need to wait for almost one month to deliver it overseas. So if you can shorten the deliver time it'd be great."
"Security is a continuous process. In every product, there is a requirement for improvement. Its pricing should also be improved according to Indian market requirements. They must also improve on the reporting part. Its reporting can be more precise. If we can get a real-time report in a specific format, it will be helpful for customers to know about the current status of their security."
"I would like some automated custom reporting."
"The cloud features and integration could be improved."
"Web security solutions can be improved."
"It is a pretty straightforward setup, but it should be some sort of documentation that takes you step-by-step to help set it up for your VPC."
"Reporting: We have had to work manually in many of our reports."
"Flexibility in pricing could be improved. It's more rigid in its pricing compared to its competitor: Kaspersky."
"The reporting system needs to allow for customizations because many reports do not include details that we expect."
"Sophos customer support could use some improvement."
"I would like to see the SD-WAN feature improved."
"It is a little too CPU resource intensive, so we would like to see improvements there."
"The reporting could be a lot better."
