Unified branch management has simplified deployment and improved wireless security and visibility
Fortinet FortiAP's zero-touch deployment feature with FortiManager is utilized in the current deployment. Zero-touch provisioning with FortiManager enables deployment and configuration that is very useful, leading to huge cost savings. As long as everything is deployed and plugged in, you can push an image to the firewall, and it pushes it out to the switches and all the APs. The deployment time is a lot quicker as a result. Currently, there is not a lack of function in Fortinet FortiAP. The organization is satisfied with it. Everything is managed via FortiManager in a multi-tenanted, cloud deployment model, as the organization is an MSP, so it works well. Pricing for Fortinet FortiAP is rated as an eight, as it is a lot cheaper than Meraki. I would recommend Fortinet FortiAP to other users. I would give this review an overall rating of nine out of ten.

Offers great control and visibility to users, along with availability on the cloud
The other solutions did not offer the visibility that Mojo Networks offered. During the rolling out of the installation process, you have to go through the on-premises model to be able to make some changes. If somebody needs to make necessary changes, you must go to the on-premises model with the initial product. With the cloud solution, you don't have to go for the on-premises model, as you can make the changes over the cloud. The stability offered by Mojo Networks is better than the other products available in the market since, with other tools, you need to keep restarting them frequently, and it may be required once or twice a day, especially if it is used as an enterprise solution or in an enterprise environment, where the traffic is too high, causing the build-up of a lot of cache memory, fill-ups, and SRAM, a reason why one will have to restart such products.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"The integration is efficient, allowing for management through the firewall."
"The pricing is reasonable for what it offers."
"Fortinet FortiAPs are useful for small to medium-scale companies where there are budget concerns."
"Fortinet FortiAP provides value for money, and I can quantify the savings at about 80%."
"I would give FortiAP a rating of ten out of ten so far."
"I always recommend to customers who have a FortiGate firewall to choose Fortinet FortiAP instead of deploying any other wireless controller or OEM because it provides a single posture of security and a single management console, is easy to use, easy to deploy, and offers central management with FortiGate."
"The product's deployment phase is very easy since its documentation part is available in the public domain."
"The most valuable aspect of Fortinet FortiAP is the support."
"The solution is very stable."
"It is a hundred percent scalable product since its functionalities are good...It is a very stable product."
"In summary, there is very little that can be improved with this product."
"The stability of the solution has been good. We haven't had any issues."
"The solution is always easy to use and deploy, and the ease of use is one of the main reasons clients are moving from Cisco to Arista."
"The Mojo has proved to handle these high-density requirements and perform better than many competitive devices."
"It does everything we need it to do, and it scales well, it's stable and offers good security."
"The technical support for the solution is very helpful."
 

Cons

"FortiAP is very good in an indoor environment, but we are struggling with the outdoor environment."
"Technical support is a pain. Fortinet has to get its act together. If you don't pay for premium service, you will have issues."
"The product fails to offer default access points to deal with the areas revolving around configurations."
"I am not satisfied with Fortinet FortiAP's technical support in India. Whenever we call them, they only provide KB articles first."
"A point for improvement for Fortinet FortiAP would be improvements in the GUI, which is adequate but could be improved."
"The support offered by the solution has certain shortcomings, making it in areas where improvements are required."
"I would like to have automation capabilities that would help us reduce the configuration steps."
"The radio band support could be improved, especially for legacy devices."
"Something that could be improved is the ability to easily and quickly see what speed someone is on and if there are any issues on the network. We are using the older software technology, so maybe their newest version is able to do that."
"Technical support could be more helpful. They are lacking a bit in that regard."
"The price should be lowered. It is too high for our country."
"The product's initial setup phase and configuration are areas with certain shortcomings where improvements are required."
"The user interface needs improvement to make navigation even more simplistic."
"They could use more additional application security and network security features. They could add on to the WiFi as a selling point. It would be nice to be able to say to the WiFi users, "We will protect you against viruses and malware, so you don't have to purchase that.""
"I would like to have a single pane of glass to better control the access point and the switching."
"The user interface could use improvement, and Mojo is working on it. The features and functions are in two different places, and they are in the process of moving them into one place."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"On a scale of one to ten with ten being the most expensive, I would rate FortiAP a six."
"FortiAP is more expensive than some other options."
"If I compare it with the other enterprise products, the price is good."
"The product is available at a very comfortable price for my company compared to the other products available in the market. The prices of products from Meraki and Aruba are high compared to those of Fortinet."
"Fortinet FortiAP offers a more cost-effective solution compared to Palo Alto and Check Point."
"The devices under Fortinet are not expensive. The solution's licensing part is expensive."
"We purchased perpetual licensing, and additional costs may vary depending on the services acquired from Fortinet."
"Pricing includes the planning tools, management, security, analytics, and advanced guest WiFi capabilities. It's always better to buy the longest term available for the best ROI. However, device will continue to function without valid cloud license."
"In Australian dollars, we buy it for five years at $1,200."
"They have been a great price competitor against some of the other big brands, like Meraki, especially for cloud-based WiFi. However, Meraki has been more expensive. They beat Meraki on features for the WiFi, which makes them a better choice even if the price is the same."
"I rate the product's price as an eight on a scale of one to ten, where one is cheap, and ten is expensive."
"The cost is a one-time fee."
"Since they have only the cloud and on-premises platform, the price looks good compared to the other OEMs like Cisco and Ruckus. For one of the Wi-Fi 6 access points for five years, they might be charging 20,000 to 25,000 INR."
"Of every solution we looked at, every wireless solution, Mojo was a minimum of six figures cheaper. Minimum. Most of them were double, which again is unheard of. Not only do you get all the feature benefits, like everything is there, everything just works, but at the same time, it was a no-brainer, because of the cost. It's almost like you hit the lottery."
"The license is provided per access point, so you buy an access point and you use it."
