Achieve reliable cloud connectivity while benefiting from competitive pricing
The main advantage of FortiGate Cloud is its reliability, scalability, and pricing. I have deployed FortiGate devices both on-premises and in the cloud, and both are working great. The device is reliable despite being on cloud infrastructure, and the hypervisor part is managed by Azure. This reliability and the easy-to-configure GUI have been significant for our operations. Additionally, I have never faced any hardware malfunctions with these devices.
