We primarily sell Fortinet's flagship model, which is FortiGate, their next-generation firewall. After that, we sell switches, wireless devices, and solutions such as mail, web protection, and EDR. These are the most sold products in Serbia from Fortinet's portfolio. We have recently closed a deal in Serbia with Fortinet FortiWeb. The documentation is excellent, particularly the implementation manual. The pricing is very competitive compared to most vendors producing similar solutions. When comparing Fortinet FortiWeb to F5 BIG-IP, which is their matching solution, Fortinet FortiWeb uses smaller boxes while meeting the same technical specifications. This automatically makes Fortinet FortiWeb cheaper than F5. F5 is considered the most sold vendor in this area for Web Application Firewalls globally, and Fortinet FortiWeb offers better pricing in comparison. I would rate this product a ten out of ten.
I have not utilized Fortinet FortiWeb's machine learning capabilities, as I only perform configuration based on customer requirements. The compliance version of Fortinet FortiWeb has firmware version stability issues. Fortinet FortiWeb offers three solutions: on-premises and VM solutions. My overall rating for Fortinet FortiWeb is six out of ten.
I am providing next-generation firewalls or FortiWeb Web Application Firewalls (WAF). Both web application firewalls and next-generation firewalls are available, which we are doing daily. I usually recommend the FortiWeb Web Application Firewall (WAF) for various types of companies, including retail, hospitals, manufacturing, construction, and banking. It is the best option on the market. I rate FortiWeb Web Application Firewall (WAF) eight out of ten.
The solution helps protect our company's web applications against common threats up to 99 percent. We feel very safe with the tool. Speaking about how the tool has effectively mitigated web security threats for an application, I would say that it is an application behind the web portal, so there are about a hundred or thousand people who can access a website. If it is a sensitive application, and we have to watch every access to it to make it really safe, that is the reason why we need WAF on the application. My company doesn't use AI with the tool. I recommend the product to others. I would say that others need to have it if they have a shopping website or something similar. I know it is hard to sell because we find it quite hard whenever my company tries to do so. The solution offers 100 percent integration with other Fortinet security products. The ease of policy configuration in the tool is okay. I rate the tool a nine to ten out of ten.

It is more than a basic firewall. It includes various features for enhanced security, such as protection against threats and vulnerabilities specific to web applications. Depending on their roles and responsibilities, some people who work on EDS may also interact with FortiWeb WAF. FortiWeb offers a comprehensive product suite for SOC integration, including automation and SIEM capabilities. It also offers a complete integration package, including physical components that ensure a consistent experience for internal and external teams. It includes an analyzer that provides comprehensive visibility. It is designed to optimize costs while sending detailed analytics and other relevant data. I recommend the solution for security. I rate the solution a nine out of ten.
FortiWeb should include log retention for 90 or 180 days built into the product, without requiring an additional license. Having to buy extra licenses for longer log retention is problematic and adds to the cost. I would recommend FortiWeb to other users. Overall, I would rate FortiWeb an eight out of ten.

The solution’s maintenance and UI are easy, but some features are hidden. Their quality assurance needs to work. We used to have the upgrades and patches every month or 15 days, but now they are coming every week too. We have vulnerability. The product needs to get more mature. Overall, I rate the solution a six out of ten.
FortiWeb Web Application Firewall is deployed on-cloud in our organization. I recommend FortiWeb Web Application Firewall to other users because it helps block many attacks that come from the web and application layers. Using the solution to protect organizations from attacks is an easy process. Overall, I rate FortiWeb Web Application Firewall a nine out of ten.

Fortinet FortiWeb provides the board protection capabilities required to protect web applications without sacrificing performance or manageability.
