I appreciate the ability to connect via SSH through Fortinet FortiManager to the FortiGates I manage. This feature allows me to gather information about the interfaces without having to physically connect to the device. This is a convenient aspect that I find valuable.

Within the management of some features on FortiManager, specifically the management of user objects used for VPN service, FortiManager is quite weak.

The information extraction through command lines was could improve to some extent. Although there were some command lines available, there were not enough options. For instance, I needed to obtain the management IP address of my two Fortigates, but the Fortinet FortiManager did not provide me with the IP address on the LAN interface. I attempted to find this information through the command line but was unsuccessful. I also searched for articles on the internet, but could not find a solution. This is an aspect that could be improved or potentially there is a method to access this information that I have yet to discover.

I prefer configuring rules and the VPN on the standalone device, not on the manager.

When I started, it was a bit difficult, however, now it's okay. It can be a bit complex for basic users.

There may be a communication issue. However, other items may be the culprit, such as network connectivity. It depends on the customer's network.
