Fortinet FortiGate Reviews

I use Fortinet FortiGate mostly for security purposes.

Fortinet FortiGate is easy to use. 

The sniffing packets or packet captures can be simplified and improved because it's a little confusing. The automation feature has some limitations and could be better. 

I've been using Fortinet FortiGate for over four years. 

Fortinet FortiGate is a stable solution.

Fortinet FortiGate is a scalable solution.

The technical support was quite good.

I think it's very easy to implement this solution because one person can do it. There aren't too many fancy things to do. I think you can implement FortiGate in less than an hour. We implement it by ourselves. Three administrators can do it because our clients aren't big enterprises, just SMEs. 

Setup costs and pricing depends on many variables, but it's mostly affordable.

I would recommend Fortinet FortiGate to potential users.

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

We are a solution provider and FortiGate is one of the security products that we implement for our customers.

This is an easy solution to deploy.

Technical support needs to be improved.

I have been using Fortinet FortiGate for almost two years.

Stability-wise, FortiGate is good. We plan to continue working with it in the future.

FortiGate is a scalable product and our customer has approximately 2,000 users.

The customer support is expensive.

We have had difficulties with technical support from Fortinet.

I also have experience with Cisco, and FortiGate is the cheaper solution.

The installation is straightforward and it took about two months for us to deploy for our last customer.

Some customers have this deployed on-premises, whereas others have a cloud-based deployment. The choice depends on the environment.

We have an in-house team to deploy this product for our customers. We also give them technical support. Relationships with our customers are very important.

The price of FortiGate support is too expensive.

We try to help our customers evaluate and choose the best solution for them. Sometimes, they implement Cisco products.

Fortinet FortiGate is a firewall product that I recommend.

I would rate this solution a seven out of ten.

We use the solution for security but we are planning on upgrading to another product.

We currently are using the basic features of the product but one of the features we use is for blocking traffic.

We would like to see an upgrade to the VPN feature, we are using the VPN from outside of our office and there is a limitation to 10 connections, more connections would be suitable. Also, the security could improve on some features that are available.

I have been using the product for approximately five years.

The solution is stable.

The support is they provide is good.

The setup was easy.

The pricing for the product is alright. Our organization has not yet provided an end budget for this area.

We are not yet certain if we need a different solution in the future. We are evaluating our options. We have looked at Cisco and Barracuda solutions but I believe Cisco is very expensive and Barracuda might be the one we choose. It is too early to tell, we are still evaluating these options and others.

I rate Fortinet Fortigate a six out of ten.

We use FortiGate as our primary firewall that acts as the perimeter between the internet and our on-premises network. It is used as a security measure for about 2000 users that go out to the internet from here.

Along with FortiGate we also use other products like F5 for our network and app security. And for network equipment, we use Cisco products.

We have found it to be very reliable and that's why our teams and various users in our company use it as our main firewall every day. 

The feedback that I have received is that the performance could be better, and the user experience is not as good compared to a previous solution we used. It could be more user-friendly. Of course, it still works fine for our operations.

We have been using Fortinet FortiGate for one year now. 

Since we have been using FortiGate there haven't been any major problems so far. Especially nothing too serious like a major bug or anything like that.

The only issues that we have come across have had to do with simple configuration errors like missing configuration values from a previous implementation.

We have not tried to expand the product much, but it is currently used as the main security perimeter for about 2000 people which is already quite a large number. We don't predict that we will be increasing usage much more than that.

We plan to keep using FortiGate as much as we can for our security solution as we casually move more of our systems to the cloud.

Usually, we have our maintenance plan once a year, like a power-down test and things like that. But I'm not sure whether we have a contract with a partner company to do that or not. I believe our network engineer department may have used Fortinet technical support, though I have not received feedback on it.

It's straightforward.

Fortinet offers help with implementation and we have in the past used their assistance.

As far as I'm aware, in our case, it's just a yearly pricing arrangement with no additional licensing costs.

We made a comparison to two or three other products in this space, but I cannot recall the others.

I wish that I could give more details on our technical use of FortiGate, but that isn't my main responsibility. I don't know much about this area and whether they are good or bad compared to other products. However, the feedback from our technical team has been generally good. That's why our teams use it every day.

I would rate Fortinet FortiGate a seven out of ten.

We are using this solution to protect our network on every site. We are using it as a Network Firewall.

The most valuable features are the policies, filtering, and configuration.

Technical support is good but the response time could be faster.

When it's overloaded, it works slower and overheats.

The data analysis could be improved.

I have been using Fortinet FortiGate for 15 years.

We are using the 100 models.

This solution is pretty stable.

It's a scalable solution. I would rate it a seven out of ten.

We have 2,500 users in our organization.

Technical support is good. I would rate them an eight out of ten.

We have also used Huawei.

The initial setup is straightforward. It's pretty easy.

At the very most, it takes a day to deploy.

Before deciding to install this solution, be sure to conduct an analysis of your environment. You may need a larger one or this may be too big for their needs.

I would rate this solution an eight out of ten.

The primary use case of this solution is as a firewall and UTM machine.

What I like the most is the configuration and that it's simple, and straightforward to maintain.

The UTM configuration on-premises is straightforward and simple to use.

Support is good and the interface is simple and intuitive.

It's good, and I feel that there is nothing more that can be added.

The pricing could be reduced or include the first year warranty.

I have been working with Fortinet FortiGate for more than five years.

It's a stable solution. I have not had any issues with it during the time that I have been using it.

Technical support is quite good. They have helped me with all of my requests.

The initial setup is straightforward.

It took approximately one day to deploy.

They are very competitive, but we like to have the factory warranty taken care of.

We had to pay a large amount for the first year contract and support.

I would recommend this solution to others who are interested in using it.

I would rate Fortinet FortiGate an eight out of ten.

We use Fortinet FortiGate to implement firewalls for our customers.

I like Fortinet FortiGate's antispam filter, SPN, and clustering features.

There is room for improvement. When it comes to email spam detection, Baracuda is the highest or the best, Cisco is the lowest, and Fortinet FortiGate is in the middle. Application management can be improved. Analysis and sandbox can also be improved in the next release. 

I have been using Fortinet FortiGate for around three years.

Scalability can be improved. Compared to Cisco, Fortinet FortiGate's scalability is in a good position.

Fortinet FortiGate offers good technical support services.

The initial setup is straightforward. For example, the SMB solution is straightforward. We have to follow the instructions and customize it as per the customer's request for the enterprise solution.

Fortinet FortiGate's price can be reduced. 

Fortinet FortiGate is highly recommended because they update everything every second. 

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

We use it to secure connections for communication. This solution is deployed on the cloud and on-premises. We are using the latest version.

The security for endpoints is the most valuable. It is very secure for our workers. It allows us to secure a transaction and enable security for a specific segment in the workflow.

I would like the deployment and integration of this product to be easier. We should be able to deploy the features more easily and have different types of access. It should be easier to integrate. Currently, we need to develop APIs to use this interface. 

I have been using this solution for two years.

It is very stable.

Its scalability is good. We have 1,000 users of this solution in our organization. Currently, our usage of this solution is 50%.

They have 24/7 support.

We were using a different solution, and we switched because of the security and price.

It was complex earlier, but it is not that complex now. It took us about 24 hours to implement it. It was quick. It is integrated with the services that our IT team has. We have all the high-value services, such as support services, monitoring services, and integration services.

It is around $50,000 per month.

I would rate Fortinet FortiGate SWG an eight out of ten.
