Fortinet FortiGate Reviews

Some of the key features of the solution is that it has good reporting, you can receive many details from the connection, for example, clients and website information. Additionally, you can determine if an action has taken place such as virus scan information.

In the balance between links feature normally you can just choose one option to balance. It would be better for the solution to have more than one option, preferably three.

The stability is amazing.

The scalability is good. We have approximately 50 employees using this product in our company.

The setup is easy.

The solution is easy to implement, it takes approximately one day for deployment.

I would recommend this solution to others.

I rate Fortinet FortiGate a ten out of ten.

We are resellers of Fortinet FortiGate.

We use this solution locally and as a VPN.

We have a lot of experience with this solution and haven't had any issues. For repairs, the RMA process is also good.

We don't have any issues with the interface, customization, or integration. This solution works well.

We would like to see better pricing.

This version is stable and I don't have any issues with this solution. In our environment, it works well.

Technical support is good.

The price of the license and warranty can be better because it is very expensive.

The license renewal is very expensive.

There are no additional costs in addition to the standard license fees.

I would rate Fortinet FortiGate an eight out of ten.

When trying to move from MPLS to SD-WAN they have a very good SD-WAN offering. 

The solution integrates well.

It has high-quality security features.

It provides a full end-to-end security suite.

The security of the solution is good.

The solution could have licensing fees reduced in the future.

I have been using the solution for 5 years.

It is not common for the solution to become unstable, but it does happen. The good thing is, they constantly release updates. If the version you are using has a bug, in the next version it definitely will be fixed.

The solution is highly scalable because they have devices that can handle a large amount of traffic. The VM version with the hardware appliances is widely scalable. It can handle small businesses to large scale enterprises. In terms of mode of deployment, you have VM, hardware appliance, and cloud. There is cloud management as well that is scalable. It can suit a number of deployment scenarios.

We currently have 50 employees using the solution, some of our clients that have deployed it has 1000 users and it has not given a problem.

The customer service was very fast to respond to our needs.

The installation is not difficult but there is a learning curve, it becomes easy over time. 

The basic installation took approximately two days. A more complicated scenario can take even up to two weeks. Depending on the options that you are looking for, there are many things you can consider. If you are looking at a complex design then you are going to take more time.

I did the deployments myself with one other technician.

The pricing of the solution is very competitive. The license price can vary depending on the product you have and the different types of licenses you need. For example, they have an enterprise and UTM license. It depends on the type of license and the size of the company.

Fortinet has a product that can cater to any area of the security market. For example, application firewall and authentication products.

I would recommend this solution to others.

I rate Fortinet FortiGate a nine out of ten.

The solution is recommended for medium-sized and enterprise businesses that want their sensitive information secured.

There are lots of features and most of them are deployed for internet security. Users are protected if they accidentally go to some malicious sites.

The way everything is set up could be easier. Currently, people need a lot of experience and knowledge to administer it and to link it to devices.

I have been using the solution for approximately four years.

The solution is very reliable.

My colleagues have easily switched licenses and features for the device. There was not any complication, it was really intuitive.

Technical support agents are really responsive. They are a small company, but they are providing high-quality technical support every time we contact them.

The initial set up is complicated.

The price for the device and software is high. However, the solution is of good quality and has a lot of features. Licensing is on a yearly basis, it can also be purchased for a couple of years ahead. For example, for a single year or three years. If you purchase a license for a longer period you receive a discount or some type of credit. 

We are recommending this solution to help increase the possibilities of securing internal systems of companies against intrusions.

I rate Fortinet FortiGate an eight out of ten.

We use this solution as our Firewall.

FortiGate is a service, and because of that, I don't use it very much. The equipment is for the operator that monitors who is on the internet, nothing more.

It has improved our productivity because we can control the people who go on the internet, and we control their access to social networks.

The most valuable feature of this solution is Quota. It allows the user to go where they want to go and to use the internet.

The price could be improved.

In the next release, I would like to see the interface simplified to be more user-friendly.

I have been using Fortinet FortiGate for approximately six years.

It's a stable solution. It works for us.

This is not an area fully explored. It has been sufficient for what we need.

We have 700 users in our organization who are using this solution. We don't have plans to increase our usage at this time.

We have not needed any technical support for the Fortinet FortiGate service.

The initial set up was not something that I was concerned with.

The price could be lower.

It's a good tool to control users.

I would rate Fortinet FortiGate an eight out of ten.

Need to Improvement in Reporting

We have been using it for the last nine years.

Stability is fine. I rebooted after 755 Days from the date of installation.

Scalability is Fine.

Customer Service:

Partner support is very good.

Technical Support:

FortiGuard Service is also good with the push method update.

We were previously using SOPHOS.

Easy by WebGUI and also mobile app.

We have implemented in-house.

Excellent ROI, due to virus spambot intrusion free network.

It's a little bit higher than Cyberoam but the security is More higher compared to the other vendor.

Sophos, Check Point, and SonicWall.

Buy FortiGate for a hassle free network management and excellent ROI.

It is a safe product.

The solution could be more user friendly.

I have been using the solution for approximately 6 years.

It is a stable solution.

We have over 5000 users using the solution at my company.

All the firewalls, more or less are similar, it is very easy to install this type of equipment on the premise of the customer. 

I configured the solution for my clients. We have a minimal of three technical employees doing the maintenance of the solution.

I think Check Point or Cisco are more user-friendly solutions.

We do not have plans to expand usage of the product at this time.

I rate Fortinet FortiGate a seven out of ten.

We use Fortinet FortiGate mainly for firewall and VPN purposes. 

The virtual domains feature and the ease of use.

The Fortinet support needs improvement and also the quality control of the firmware (there are a lot of bugs)

I have been using Fortinet FortiGate for about 10 years.

Fortinet FortiGate offer a good value for money solution

Fortinet FortiGate is scalable. We don't have any constraints that create a problem for us except the support.

The major problem with Fortinet is the support. We have often hardware malfunctions and software bugs and the support is slow.

We also use another firewall vendor product

The initial setup was easy.

The implementation was through a international integrator team

Fair

The price is fair compared to the other competitors.

No

They have many features

On a scale from one to ten, I would give Fortinet FortiGate an eight.
