"It enables our organization to become more productive. Also, it protects our NEtWare from viruses and malware."
"The features that we have found most valuable are the SSL VPN and the User Portal."
"There are great templates, so you don't have to customize them if you don't want to. You do have the option to custom create some folders and some reports, however, with what is there, you don't really need to go through extra effort, as they already give you a lot of predefined views of reports and so forth."
"This is a quality product with ok support, and it is better than the competition we've tried."

"The solution is extremely reliable."
"The signature database and zero-day detection are Fortinet FortiGate's most valuable features."

"I think Sangfor NGAF is more valuable than Cisco products because of its simplicity and ease of management. If I compare it with Palo Alto and Cisco, both are quite complex products. And if I compare it with FortiGate firewalls from Fortinet, I have also used all these products. Fortinet and Sangfor NGAF are similar products because the applications behind the application and policy layers are almost identical."
"Sangfor NGAF specializes in ransomware detection and helps to protect our network from ransomware threats and malware."
"Fortinet FortiGate needs to improve the logging and reporting. Additionally, the next-generation application's policies should be improved. When they were released they had bugs."

"Performance and technical support are the main issues with this solution."
"Security is a continuous process. In every product, there is a requirement for improvement. Its pricing should also be improved according to Indian market requirements. They must also improve on the reporting part. Its reporting can be more precise. If we can get a real-time report in a specific format, it will be helpful for customers to know about the current status of their security."
"The feature which gives us a lot of pain is ASIC architecture."
"Maybe they could make some features more accessible, such as a way to translate directions between two networks that share the same subnets."
"The solution can have more features in a single box that can be multi-applied to integrate everything."
"The setup is pretty complex and not easy to implement."
"We experienced some technical issues during implementation"
"Some people complain that the solution tends to have a steep learning curve. It could be because most people have basic familiarity with Cisco or other similar products and maybe have never worked closely with Juniper products."
"The user interface could always be better. They could make it simpler and more intuitive."
"I would like to see an activity sensor for malicious content or sensor for viruses and malware."
"In the next release, I would like to see improvements made to the GUI because it isn't very good."
"Juniper vSRX is expensive."
"The solution should consider improving its licensing policies."
"It could use more tutorials."
"The reporting and log management could be improved."
"The GUI needs to be improved, lacks logic in some areas."
"The setup phase is quite complex."
"It does not offer any recommendations on how to mitigate or control attacks."
"Sangfor could improve their interface capacity on the 5100 series model and upgrade their hardware from one gig to 10 gig. This would improve the overall throughput."
"The product must provide more IPS features."
"Sangfor NGAF could improve by refining its application control policies, especially in addressing challenges with certain types of applications."
"The firewall system needs gradual improvements because there are more threats and challenges every day."
