I evaluated both for a multi-site environment, and eventually chose FortiGate, based on the centralized management and reputation of Fortinet. Eventually we plan to move to FortiSwitches and maybe even Fortinet access points, so it makes sense to use Fortimanager to manage all the Fortinet devices. Sophos also have a good solution, but reading reviews of the XG I got the impression they were no...

Hi, XG is EOL the new series is XGS, both are excellent equipment but I prefer Fortigate, why ??? DHCP slection, leader SD-WAN, many IPSEC dynamics is possible on SOPHOS but is limit the are conflicts with many IP's dynamics you need to use DDNS, SSL tunnel for remote clients, VRF, advanced routing with OSPF and BGP ("as path").

Hello Sharif,   I prefer FortiGate SDWAN Devices (FortiGate) even though we also deliver Sophos to our clients.  The decentralized FortiGate devices work as firewalls with an excellent security ecosystem. FortiGate and most other items work as Hardware units or on virtual machines. As a Telco company we have a lot of companies working in different industries with various requirements. We can support them all with FortiGate.Our customers prefer the security features, the stable ecosystem for life cycle management, for device/user/policy management, thread detection & prevention, intrusion prevention, sandboxing, ... the low operation effort to build a stable company network that supports the need of any customer size.In our business, we also like that the architecture of a company network can be easily changed if the customer requirements change. From single-line sites to Data Centers with high availability and Cloud integration FortiGate can be used in any design.The different security features that can be added by the license are powerful and integrated into the management dashboard. Updates of protection mechanisms against new threads happen automatically as soon as a new protection mechanism is available when new threads occur. The security team at Fortinet is excellent.GreetingsAndre

We did a head-to-head comparison and live tested 2 pretty beefy models from each company. Palo absolutely blew Cisco out of the water. There is a major difference in a company focused on firewalls first and then migrating into complementary security technologies to integrate them to make a comprehensive security ecosystem vs another company saying they are doing the same thing, but actually j...

We did a head-to-head comparison and live tested 2 pretty beefy models from each company.  Palo absolutely blew Cisco out of the water.  There is a major difference in a company focused on firewalls first and then migrating into complementary security technologies to integrate them to make a comprehensive security ecosystem vs another company saying they are doing the same thing, but actually just piecemealing things together.  Palo has some issues, too.  But their product offerings are top-notch, their roadmap is cutting edge, and overall they are building a security ecosystem that actually functions and isn't mainly marketing and sales material.  It works!

Analyze the wave of product at Gartner Hype Cycle. EDR was good in the past. After that, MDR joined the hype and now, XDR is the trend. Wait for more in a couple of months and (sic) know the ZDR!
