FortiGate provides inbound scanning for e-mail based threats, but FortiMail provides much deeper analysis and implements a much richer feature set.

I rate technical support 5/5.

We used Exchange Server + FortiGate firewall. FortiMail offers more email security features.

Initial setup is very easy.

No per user or mailbox pricing; industry leading based on price and performance.

It actually filters the compromised emails when on a network layer itself.

The UI could be better.

It's quite stable. Both the on-premises and cloud deployments are quite stable.

It's scalable.

The technical support is excellent.

The initial setup is pretty straightforward.

The Fortinet line of products concentrates more on the security of these solutions. That is where we see the competitive advantage over other service providers.

I would definitely recommend Fortinet FortiMail and rate it at nine on a scale from one to ten.

It can be used for the mail for your trainees, personnel and spam sorting.

I find it to be easy to use and to manage.

I think the security of the product could improve.

I have been using the product for 4 or 5 years.

I find the product to be stable.

The product is scalable.

I did not use customer support.

The setup was not difficult at all.

The deployment is simple and once up and running it is easy to manage.

The product is not as expensive with competitive different brands. The products sell a lot.

I would definitely recommend this product to others.

I rate Fortinet Fortmail a seven out of ten.
