Provides solid functionality and allows room for enhancing content management and support services

They can improve their CDR content profile and some anti-spam features. They don't have any direct script to run to add personalization, and we have to do it manually one by one. There are many tasks which we have to complete individually. We can't import files into the Fortinet FortiMail Cloud sensors. That's a drawback, as they need to provide a feature to import files. We can make the format, but we cannot import the file into Fortinet FortiMail Cloud. Additionally, in Fortinet FortiMail Cloud, not in FortiSandbox, they need to improve the block and allow list functionality to block URLs and allow specific types of URLs or regex.

The analytics were the most valuable part, although they returned a lot of false positives

It was not particularly user friendly in setting up the emails, managing the lists, or publishing reports. It also sent out a couple of emails between November and December twice. I don't know how you'd deal with the false positives thing, but certainly sending out emails more than once should be fixable, and a really good team of UI guys could probably make some headway with the difficulty in actually publishing reports and the like.

"I am happy with the stability."

"I love FortiMail."

"The quarantine feature of FortiMail is the most valuable, as it quarantines emails based on my policies."

"FortiGuard is the most reliable and professional mitigation center to handle incidents and risks that I have to face."

"Fortinet is good at providing security beyond our email solution assets."

More Fortinet FortiMail Cloud pros

"The analytics were the most valuable part, although they returned a lot of false positives from the remote configurations of email servers we hit."

"It enables the quick creation of email templates, and also tracks valuable metrics."

Cons

"They could look at strengthening anti-spam with the newly observed domains."

"The setup of the rules can be improved. I think it should be simplified and would be the best improvement in the system."

"FortiMail needs to develop further, particularly in integrating AI features, to keep up with rapidly advancing technology."

"Fortinet policies add an extra load to the endpoint."

"The setup of the rules can be improved. I think it should be simplified and would be the best improvement in the system."

"This ease of use and user-friendliness is something we believe could be improved in FortiMail."

"Fortinet FortiMail Cloud doesn't have AI features, making it an outdated tool for me."

"I've not been able to use more than two domains in the back end. If I add any other domain I'm not able to get a proper cPanel for that domain."

More Fortinet FortiMail Cloud cons

"The drag and drop templates are great, but sometimes they cause HTML errors that require diagnosing the problem within individual lines of code."

"It was not particularly user friendly in setting up the emails, managing the lists, or publishing reports."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The price of this solution could be more competitive."

"A license for our company using FortiMail and FortiCare (filtering and support) was $4000."

"The product's price is reasonable."

"It's on a subscribed basis."

"The licensing is for three years. In the beginning, we did not pay monthly, it was paid once for three years."

"The pricing depends on various factors, including the type of licenses and subscriptions you have procured"

"I see how manageable and flexible the licenses are."

"When we're talking about pricing, other products have about the same price. That is normal."
