We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"It is a stable solution.""Fortinet FortiSandbox is scalable.""The solution is very good because it catches a lot of threats in emails.""The scanner office document as well as PDF are useful. The most valuable thing is that you can emulate different operating systems without having the danger of getting something infected. It emulates several operating systems, and as a result, you either get the file or you don't get the file.""You have access to a report as to what behaviors the example file entered in the registry.""Fortinet FortiSandbox puts suspicious files in quarantine, analyzes for virus risks, and lets them out of quarantine if it detects no risk.""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.""The product is great. It can be deployed on the cloud or on-premises."

"Over the thirteen years of using the product, we have not experienced a single compromise in our environment. During the COVID period, we faced numerous DDoS attacks, and the tool proved highly effective in mitigating these threats.""The features that I find most valuable are the MIR (Mandiant Incident Response) for checks on our inbound security.""The scalability has not been a problem. We have deployed the product in very high bandwidth networks. We have never had a problem with the FireEye product causing latency issues within our networks.""Support is very helpful and responsive.""It protects from signature-based attacks and signature-less attacks. The sandboxing technology, invented by FireEye, is very valuable. Our customers go for FireEye because of the sandboxing feature. When there is a threat or any malicious activity with a signature, it can be blocked by IPS. However, attacks that do not have any signatures and are very new can only be blocked by using the sandboxing feature, which is available only in FireEye. So, FireEye has both engines. It has an IPS engine and a sandbox engine, which is the best part. You can get complete network protection by using FireEye.""We see ROI in the sense that we don't have to react because it stops anything from hurting the network. We can stop it before we have a bigger mess to clean up.""Improved our systems and our customers' by providing better malware protection, defense against zero-day threats, and improved network security.""It allows us to be more hands off in checking on emails and networking traffic. We can set up a bunch of different alerts and have it alert us."

Cons
"If we can have more dashboards, it would be good.""It should be easier to import custom virtual machines. Some of the VMs that are in FortiSandbox don't have the applications that we have in our environment. We need to import a VM with specific applications that we use in our environment. Have all the licenses because this is a real environment. You need a license for the Windows client you run on it. It's possible to import custom VMs, but it's a pain to do it. I would like a tool that simplifies the process.""The initial setup is not too complex but could be easier.""At least once a week we have a false alarm. This needs to be adjusted so that we get fewer of these occurrences.""The main area of concern in Fortinet FortiSandbox is its detection capabilities.""The product is good but it could be speedier. In addition, it's quite complex.""The integration is limited. The solution needs to offer better integration with multiple vendors.""In future releases, I would like to see more automation capabilities."

More Fortinet FortiSandbox Cons →

"Management of the appliance could be greatly improved.""The problem with FireEye is that they don't allow VM or sandbox customization. The user doesn't have control of the VMs that are inside the box. It comes from the vendor as-is. Some users like to have control of it. Like what type of Windows and what type of applications and they have zero control over this.""I would love to see better reporting. Because you can't export some of the reports in proper formats, it is hard to extract the data from reports.""Improvements could be achieved through greater integration capabilities with different firewall solutions. Integrating with the dashboard itself for different firewalls so users can also pull tags into their firewall dashboard.""Technical support could be improved.""It would be a good idea if we could get an option to block based upon the content of an email, or the content of a file attachment.""Technical packaging could be improved.""It is very expensive, the price could be better."
