Find out what your peers are saying about Netgate, Fortinet, OPNsense and others in Firewalls."Overall security features and performance routing is good."
"What's most important is the ease of use."
"A strong point of FortiGate is that the graphical interface is complete and easy to use, especially if we think there is a list of operations that we are able to perform inside."
"The feature I like most is the SD-WAN. It allows you to manage more than one ISP at the same time. And there is a high-availability mode, so if one of your ISPs is down, you still have a backup."
"The most valuable features are the policies, filtering, and configuration."
"It's very good and very stable for businesses. It works very well."
"Using this product makes the VPN seamless and almost invisible to me in the sense that I don't have to think about it."
"The usage in general is pretty good."
"The product offers fairly good centralized administration and monitoring with decent capabilities that allow the administrator to have relevent control over devices."
"Its most outstanding feature is content filtering."
"VPN clients are easy to use and deploy."
"Technical support has been good."
"The product's network and intrusion protection features are valuable. It also has rules and compliance features for security."
"Another thing that I like about Sonatype is that if you download something today, and five days from today it becomes vulnerable, it will notify you."
"The solution lacks multi-language support."
"The monitor and the visibility, in this proxy, is very weak."
"We would like to see better pricing."
"The product does need better support in the cloud environment. It's not exactly cloud-native right now."
"Sometimes you do need to know some CLI commands, so it's a bit harder for technicians or new people that don't know it."
"It claims it does DLP, but the degree and level of controls are very basic."
"Cisco Meraki products are rising very quickly in the cloud and the connected era. Meraki products offer much better ROI, upgradability, and manageability."
"In the balance between links feature normally you can just choose one option to balance. It would be better for the solution to have more than one option, preferably three."
"The reporting from the file or reporting from mobile access needs improvement. The solution, in general, could use better reporting tools."
"Every time we made a change, the policy took about three minutes to apply, and obviously, when there were emergency changes or changes that we needed that were escalated, they were not modified very, very quickly."
"It should have excellent integration with the other security tools."
"Pricing is sometimes challenging, although it brings a lot of features."
"The tool needs to improve its file systems. The product should also include zero test feature."
"What I don't like is the lack of an option to pick up the phone and call someone for support. That is something they need to improve on. They need to have a professional services package, or they need to include that option with their services."
