Skyhigh Security and FortiSASE are prominent competitors in the network security arena. FortiSASE seems to have the upper hand due to its richer features and integration capabilities.
Features: Skyhigh Security offers an intuitive configuration, robust data protection, and user-friendly design. It is noted for real-time data protection and efficiency. FortiSASE stands out with extensive integration capabilities, advanced threat analysis, and sophisticated threat detection.
Room for Improvement: Skyhigh Security could enhance reporting capabilities, broaden third-party integration, and improve responsive customer service. FortiSASE needs better performance under high loads, improved automation tools, and scalable performance enhancements.
Ease of Deployment and Customer Service: Skyhigh Security is straightforward to deploy and has a clear setup process. Customer service is adequate but could be more responsive. FortiSASE's deployment is complex due to its extensive features, requiring more customer support, but users find the support team knowledgeable.
Pricing and ROI: Skyhigh Security is cost-effective with competitive setup costs and decent ROI, appealing to budget-conscious businesses. FortiSASE, despite higher pricing, justifies the cost through enhanced functionality and substantial ROI over time.
With FortiCASB, we manage to save around 50% on our budget compared to other products.
If there is a solution in the market, the people supporting it should be technical enough to resolve issues at their first level or second level, or at least at the third level.
The technical support from Fortinet is highly commendable
They improved their technical support assistance recently.
They maintain high availability using numerous data centers globally.
FortiSASE is not stable yet and is in the learning stage.
FortiSASE implementation is too complex where other products take two to three months or maximum four months to implement, FortiSASE took more than double that time.
While connectivity from outside to inside is okay, inside to outside is not.
I believe the SASE solution from Fortinet requires improvement by developing a cloud management platform that handles tasks like setting up SD-WAN and automating firmware updates.
The solution has room for improvement in its DDoS protection.
FortiSASE is an expensive product and the cost is indeed high.
The pricing for FortiCASB is competitive and not expensive.
When combining everything for a full SASE solution, I notice the pricing becomes quite high.
In FortiSASE, these features are bundled, and since they are tightly integrated with the firewall, SD-WAN works without additional payment.
FortiCASB is user-friendly and integrates well with other Forti-products, providing enhanced management capabilities.
The important aspects are twofold. One is authorization, and the second is access control.
The cloud security features are the most valuable.

Reviews from Real Users
Peter VanDorp, Cyber Security Analyst and Network Operations Supervisor at a non-tech company, says that "Deep packet inspection is easier to deploy in the FortiSASE environment. It's much simpler to configure one-touch deployment. It was considerably more convoluted to get that to work using FortiClient. All that processing horsepower is happening in Fortinet's cloud infrastructure, reducing the load on our local routers and on-prem FortiGate firewalls."
Jose-Rivera, Account Manager at Telefónica, that FortiSASE is "Reliable with good security and helps with network optimization".
