Find out what your peers are saying about Amazon Web Services (AWS), F5, Microsoft and others in Web Application Firewall (WAF)."FortiWeb provides the level of security we need at an excellent price point. It's easy to deploy and operationally efficient."
"It is a good product. We have just blocked everything coming from some geographical locations or certain countries, and it has been working very efficiently when I look at logs, events, and incidents generated from the system. It is generating very good analytic reports about it. This is the most valuable thing about this solution. It has load balancing and almost everything that a web application firewall needs. It is very flexible and easy to learn and configure. It can be easily learned and configured by using the information available on different channels such as YouTube."
"Other than the additional security with exploit protection, we have simpler certificate handling, as we can keep internal servers using internal certificates continuously distributed and updated by Active Directory Group Policy, while the public certificates become updated only in a single place, FortiWeb itself."
"This product is very user-friendly."
"The reason I recommend this product is because it guarantees that your network will be safe if it is set up properly and you fully utilize most of the functions."
"High-performance and detection engines, provide a high rate of exposure of web attacks."
"The most valuable feature is the web application firewall (WAF)."
"L-7 protection makes possible to protect legacy/not up-to-date servers/applications without changing the application code."
"The three most valuable features that I noticed are the geo-localization of the user, the IP reputation, and the compartmental analysis."
"The reporting could be optimized."
"The dashboard evaluating the performance of each application connected to the web app's firewall is quite helpful, but the tool is only available in application performance management. So I think if Fortinet could better integrate that particular feature, it would add a lot of value to the product."
"HA Architecture needs improvement. I would improve it by working on AP HA."
"In terms of performance, it needs to be more robust."
"I would like to have an antivirus option."
"The memory use in each of the appliances is problematic."
"New releases and old releases have some bugs, some features do not work as good as we want but every new release the Fortinet team fixes up problems."
"Fortinet FortiWeb could improve data integration."
"The area that should be improved is licensing."
