"The features I have found the most useful are the web filter, the captive portal, the SSL inspector, and the ad-blocker. They're awesome."
"All features are useful. We are using premium features such as bandwidth sharing, failover, web filters, SSL controls, antivirus, and VPN. We use these features to the fullest. These features are available in the paid firewall license, not the free one."
"The interface is very good."
"Easy to set up and easy to integrate."
"This is a professional solution which has been the most valuable aspect of its use."
"With FortiGate, the main complaint that I have heard is about the technical support."
"The support structure needs to be improved because every time we contact them, there is a delay in the response."
"MTBF: Hardware failure is more common when compared to SonicWall or Cisco ASA."
"They should improve high CPU and memory usage that occurs."
"It should provide better visibility over the network and more information in the form of reports for the end users. Its installation should also be easier."

"They need faster serviceability and more security features."
"A sandbox would be good in order to be able to inspect the emails containing spam and be able to validate the emails that contain malware, prior to delivering to the customer."
"The pricing should be reduced because it is expensive."
"The hardware can be improved."
"It does have multi-factor authentication in some areas, but I would love to see a more widely implemented version of that on the devices themselves."
"We seek the availability of the hardware in our region. The hardware-based firewall from Untangle is currently not available in our region. It should have threat protection on a real-time basis. This feature, available in Check Point and Sandstorm kind of scenario, is currently missing in Untangle NG Firewall."
"It would be much easier if there was a mobile app."
"There is room for improvement in the logs. Like with Cisco, I can do almost everything and know almost anything about what's running. Untangle works very much out of the box. It's very user-friendly, but it's not engineer-friendly. So, it's good for a home user. For something fairly easy, but at the same time, with good technology to have at home, because at home, I'm not a millionaire or anything like that. So it's not like I'm worried to get hacked. I didn't want something like a Cisco firewall; it would be a bit overkill to have at home. So that's why I went for Untangle. But it lacks a few features. It's just a tick-box kind of thing. So they have apps and turn on and off the apps. The VPN's configuration is all very ticked. They have a few custom configurations, but it's not that much."
"The product must improve its reporting features."
"Web-filtering policies could be improved."
"The interface of this solution could be more user friendly. The initial set up could also be made more simple."
