Featured Reviews

Mahmoud Younes - PeerSpot reviewer

Automation streamlines workflow and integrates seamlessly with various applications
I serve as both a reseller and customer of Fortinet FortiSOAR. The solution is suitable for all types of businesses from small to enterprise. The integration capability of Fortinet FortiSOAR deserves a rating of 10. It can be integrated with any system, and we have the capability for custom connectors. Even if Fortinet FortiSOAR doesn't have a specific connector, you can easily create a custom connector using AI. Simply provide your requirements or solution needs, and Fortinet FortiSOAR will create the connector, enabling integration with any application. My final rating for Fortinet FortiSOAR would be 10 out of 10, where one is bad and ten is good.

Automation workflows have transformed our IT, enabling secure just-in-time access control
We work with them quite often, so we have a direct line regarding areas in Torq that have room for improvement. If we have a feature request, we can request it. I do not have anything in mind at the moment. We were a design partner for a short while, so we feel that they listen and that users of the system have an impact on the way the system is designed for the better. They have a new community, which is something that I personally suggested years ago. There are many people like me in different places and they might have already built the workflow that I need. Having the option to share workflows or to jump on a thread and say I have this need, did anyone ever build a workflow for it, is amazing. Someone would jump in and say yes, sure, here, take this workflow. I think this is an amazing thing and I really hope that the community will come alive because I think this is really powerful. This is something that I already suggested and it did happen eventually, and I am quite happy with it. I do not have any specific feature in mind that I have a need for at the moment.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The good news is that FortiSOAR is not hard to maintain. If you prepared well and deployed strong initially, then maintenance will take half an hour every other week, not more than that. A single person can do it."
"It is a scalable solution...The implementation phase of the product was not tough or difficult."
"It has a quick detection and response time."
"The product can be automated for network security purposes. The solution offers a great security automation response."
"The most valuable feature of Fortinet FortiSOAR is the playbook, which has to be defined to apply the policies."
"The solution's most valuable feature is playbook creation, which allows us to integrate all data ingestion into the same platform."
"The initial setup is straightforward."
"Generally, the tool helps just automating a lot of manual load or repetitive tasks."
"Once I started to use the system and I saw the potential, it changed all of our work in IT."

"Using that one piece of AI, we auto-closed 511 cases in quarter four alone."

Cons
