Secure email management improves through advanced filtering and dynamic virus scanning

Pros

"Fortinet FortiMail is rated an eight for the protection and features it provides in the on-premises setup."

Cons

"Fortinet FortiMail is considered overpriced by Indian rupee standards. My organization is not profit-making, and academic pricing is required, but it may not be available for security products like FortiGate."

A gateway security solution that needs to offer grace period after license expiration

Pros

"Fortinet FortiMail is a complete product addressing mail security concerns. It helps to know spam subscriptions and create restriction policies. "

Cons

"The security products stop their operations once the subscription period expires. It is a wrong policy. If I trust a product, it has to continue working even after expiry. It should have a grace period of 30, 40, or 60 days. We can extend the subscription during those days. In some places, subscription extensions can take up to six weeks. During the renewal process, the support offered by the company is very poor. It also reduces security. We pay for the expired period but do not get protection during those times. The user of Fortinet FortiMail should have a feature to see spam names. "

Pros

Cons

"Fortinet FortiMail's pricing could be improved."
