"The most valuable features for me when it comes to Fortinet FortiSandbox are the integrity of the Sandbox and the power of the analyzing tool of the solution."
"The product is great. It can be deployed on the cloud or on-premises."
"The most valuable feature of the solution is that the performance it offers to users is good, making it useful for us in our company."
"Overall, it works fine. Its interface is also fine."
"The most valuable features of Fortinet FortiSandbox are the analysis options, artificial intelligence, and the many interfaces it provides."
"You have access to a report as to what behaviors the example file entered in the registry."
"The dynamic behavior analysis is excellent. We have many attacks caught by the FortiSandbox as zero-day attacks. Additionally, the administration is simple and can be customized to fit your companies needs."
"The newer 11.5 version that my team is using has found it to have good mapping."
"The most valuable feature is the correlation. It can report in real-time and monitor the management."
"Offers a good wireless feature."
"The most valuable features are the threat prediction and network forensics."
"Performance and reporting are very good."
"The development of use cases on the SSA console is quite user friendly. This means that the security analyst or the researcher does not have to learn another language."
"I can have enterprise security, email security, next generation firewall security log, HIDS and NIDS logs, etc. all on the same dashboard. It makes it easy to pinpoint or correlate our server to this. I can find out if there is lateral movement. This is the biggest advantage of this solution."
"Their technical support responds quickly and are knowledgable."
"Fortinet FortiSandbox can improve by decreasing the time of analysis response. Other solutions have a better response time, such as WildFire."
"Product could include a user interface and be made simpler for customers to configure."
"Sometimes, there are issues upgrading the version of the firewall or the SD-LAN box. After we upgrade to the latest version of the software, we still have the same box. I think it's the same for every vendor."
"The area I would like this solution to be improved in is the integrations for Sandbox with AI and big data ML mechanisms. I think this would be a practical improvement."
"There could be more templates and a higher number of simulated VMs to configure more use cases. Sometimes we need to configure many use cases in many different environments, and if the number of VMs that we configure is limited, we have to remove some and reconfigure the environment if we need another environment."
"The main area of concern in Fortinet FortiSandbox is its detection capabilities."
"The initial setup of Fortinet FortiSandbox is complex. You cannot only deploy Fortinet FortiSandbox without deploying the stack of Fortinet solutions. The implementation and integration are challenging tasks with the device and placement in the network. We needed to do POC and offloading testing."
"If you were to compare prices between vendors and manufacturers, you would see that the lowest equipment in the Sandbox line is quite expensive for a new customer."
"The tool's integration capability isn't so great."
"There are instances where you try to run the reports and then it does not give you the desired outcome."
"The product's licensing models are complex to understand. This particular area needs improvement."
"The implementation needs assistance."
"The system looks like it is a mix of a bunch of different systems, and nothing looked like it was quite together."
"Log aggregation is an issue with this solution because there are a huge number of alerts in a single instance."
"It should have a monitoring feature. It would help us analyze the current state of attacks faster from a single platform."
"Its technical support could be better."
