Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"The most valuable features of this solution are the security aspects.""It is extremely stable, and can expand as per our needs due to its stability.""The solution is very good at preventing intrusions. You can definitely rely on this solution to cover your security.""We use it to protect files and to prevent users from browsing them while they are being used.""The dashboard is very simple. It has an easy to use interface.""The biggest thing, for us lately, has been their cloud tools. They're like Intercept X from Sophos, where they'll test for ransomware. Fortinet has the same sort of set up with their cloud devices. So your firewall picks up something suspicious, it sends it up to the cloud for analysis. We also have their in-house antivirus. Having different antivirus checkpoints throughout the network is a good thing as well."

Cons
"The pricing of this solution is a little bit on the high side and can be improved.""We had some issues trying to fix some critical bugs, such as the SSL encryption.""I'm an old-school guy. I really don't like web GUI interfaces. They're always slow and laggy and their design is restricted, whereas a binary deployment for an admin tool is always faster, easier, more flexible. I would like that kind of functionality from Fortinet.""Some use case analyses could be improved.""They need to improve the web filter to make it more user-friendly.""I would like better APIs and integration with other products, like Python and SQL."

More Fortinet FortiDB [EOL] Cons →

"I have seen that the tool's installation phase has some problems regarding the versions, specifically the version of SQL.""We have not been able to integrate this product with a lot of standard incident response solutions, so an open API would help in this regard.""The product does not have encryption or data masking."
