Fortinet FortiWLM Reviews

My clients use Fortinet FortiWLM for wireless management in healthcare, hospitality, and office settings.

Fortinet FortiWLM is good for tracking assets, monitoring, and overall management.

In the next release, they could improve by adding a controller-less server, or architecture that is provided in other solutions, such as Aruba. This would be a great benefit for customers. Additionally, they could improve the feature sets to be more competitive.

The solution is stable and highly reliable. We do not have any complaints from customers.

We have currently three clients using this solution.

For critical infrastructure in healthcare and government, we find Aruba a better solution for their requirements.

If we are redoing an installation of an existing network are some difficulties but a typical installation is not difficult.

There is a perpetual license required for this solution and the price could be reduced.

I would recommend this solution.

I rate Fortinet FortiWLM a seven out of ten.

We had many blind spots at one point, so we changed the whole leverage. Under the new leverage and the FortiATs, we have our base.

The security is a valuable feature. 

The range needs some improvement and also the stability. 

I have been using Fortinet FortiWLM for two years.

The rate the stability an eight out of ten. 

I rate the scalability a seven out of ten. 

The initial setup is straightforward. 

I have seen a return on investment.

The solution is fairly priced. 

I rate the overall solution a nine out of ten. 

Our primary use case revolves around network security, particularly in environments where FortiGate firewall integration is essential.

The central configuration possibility on the FortiGate firewall is a particularly good feature.

The platform's pricing needs improvement.

We've been utilizing FortiWLM for approximately three to five years.

The solution is very stable. I rate the stability a ten.

The scalability of this solution is comparable to competitor products like Cisco or Aruba.

The setup was easy. Only one part was a little difficult when we connected the FortiWLM network to the network access control and had to use RADIUS authentication. This issue is more related to network access control rather than Wi-Fi. I rate the process a ten.

The deployment time depends on the size of the network and the number of devices. It can range from a few hours to up to two weeks.

The product is highly expensive. I rate the pricing a ten.

When used in conjunction with FortiGate, FortiWLM proves to be more effective. I would rate it a ten.
