"Setting up FortiManager can be complex because it involves changes from other devices and a lot of configuration."

"They are not supporting high query logging. They have a very limited size for the syslog, so they are usually asking for external storage, external network, and integration in order to keep the syslog. If you are considering the high volume traffic of the carrier-grade, then the syslog will hold for around five to 10 minutes. This is not enough time and it is being rotated. This is the main issue and the main limitation that we face with them that they need to work on."
"There needs to be more capabilities in order to configure the console itself instead of the user interface dashboard. Configuring the DNS or DHCP through the console instead of the GUI dashboard would be better."
"The solution is expensive."
"Infoblox lacks an extensive product portfolio."
"The solution's logging could be improved."
"I think only the technical documentation and administration of box could be a little bit improved."
