Find out in this report how the two Firewall Security Management solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The documentation has been satisfactory."
"It does a little bit better than some of the other products health-wise and updates-wise. It is really clear that a firewall is getting the signature updates in this timeframe. In some of the other products, usually, you have to go a couple of screens in to see that, but not so much in this product."
"The customer likes it for the graphs, the dynamics and the reporting functionality it offers."
"I like the product's asset management which gives clear hardware details."
"I like the tool's controller facility."
"The most valuable feature of this solution is application control."
"The role-based access controls give us granular control over what features to present to a customer, and the integration into FortiAnalyzer is the most valuable feature."
"The firewall and site-blocking features are valuable."
"Policy management and the cartography of the network have been the most valuable features."
"They have very good responses regarding integration and internalization with open tickets."
"SecureChange is the most interesting part. It all comes down to having the user request firewall access and SecureChange, based on workflows, takes care of it, sending two or three emails to the business approvers. With one click, you can automate a firewall rule."
"The policy overview is valuable."
"The technical support is pretty good."
"It provides a comprehensive overview of what our network looks like in terms of what is allowed and what is not, then how the traffic' is flowing with the Network Topology Map."
"The features I have found most valuable are its capability to check on the firewall and the routers. Afterwards it checks out all the configs, checks the vulnerabilities, checks the risks - it checks everything that may end up causing our router to be compromised. At the end it recommendations what we should do."
"It is extremely scalable. It really addresses the scale of a company's firewall footprint."
"The tool should provide a 10-15 days extension for customers when their license expires."
"There can be defects in Fortinet FortiPortal when functioning at high temperatures."
"The solution is more expensive than other products."
"Fortinet FortiPortal could improve by providing a learning portal and better security."
"The product must have in-built SD-WAN connectivity."
"If you are a very small company or a person on your own, it's harder to get any response from technical support."
"It's useful for us but if it had more educational reporting, it would good. It's not necessarily lacking but it's an area that could get better."
"I find their logging a little bit trickier to manage. The logging of events is broken up into a lot of different categories. Instead of breaking up my logs into several different places, I personally like to have all the events in one spot and then filter them down. In particular, I find that troubleshooting on Fortinet takes a little bit longer just because of those functional breakups in the logs."
"We like the change impact analysis capabilities quite a bit. The only weakness is that the reporting is a bit clunky. We would like to have the reporting be better."
"It would be great to add a link to Visio to create shapes directly from Tufin, as it has the configuration."
"I would like a better reporting feature and automatic alerting based upon rule changes."
"The two main negative points with Tufin Orca are the absence of full support and that accommodation of files and tools is not provided in a good way."
"A limitation right now for compressed firewalls is the limited ability to see above a site level in terms of the Topology Mapping in the policy display. While Tufin's actively working on a solution, or at least they have this in the queue, from being able to view this on a higher level and how all of our site networks are connected, this ability would be useful, as we expect to have these compressed firewalls in place for quite some time."
"We would like to see automation metrics, from a reporting standpoint. We would also like to see automation of site-to-site VPN tunnels. We would like to see automation of Check Point application-based firewall rules."
"At least in our environment, the dynamic learning of the topology needs improvement."
"There are pros and cons to the workflow. You cannot customize it fully and there are some limitations. You cannot create a pure object, a firewall, IP, or service (single layer) object. You can only create a firewall object group. That is one of the challenges."
