Find out what your peers are saying about Netgate, Fortinet, OPNsense and others in Firewalls."The CLI and GUI do a good job of putting a lot at your fingertips."
"The threat prevention is the solution's most valuable aspect."
"Unified Threat Management (UTM) features."
"The Fortinet FortiGate local partners were good. I did not have direct contact with Fortinet support."
"The GUI is good."
"You can create multiple Virtual Domains (VDOMs), which are treated as separate firewall instances."
"The initial setup of Fortinet FortiGate was straightforward."
"I like how we can achieve total integration."
"The most valuable feature of Juniper SRX is that it is plug-and-play. Additionally, it has a lot of capabilities in one device."
"The security features and the model collection are the most valuable."
"From a protection perspective, it provides a network perimeter security function for our company."
"The virtualization feature is the most valuable feature. Sometimes customers are requesting a private connection using mobile data when they are connecting to remote sites."
"The firewall features and the routing capability are the most valuable."
"The IPSec configuration is going well."
"The most valuable features of the Juniper SRX Series Firewall are the user-friendly UI, and accessing the solution is simple."
"The GUI is simple to use."
"The solution can scale."
"The installation phase was easy."
"The features that I find most valuable are the MIR (Mandiant Incident Response) for checks on our inbound security."
"Support is very helpful and responsive."
"The scalability has not been a problem. We have deployed the product in very high bandwidth networks. We have never had a problem with the FireEye product causing latency issues within our networks."
"Improved our systems and our customers' by providing better malware protection, defense against zero-day threats, and improved network security."
"The product is very easy to configure."
"Before FireEye, most of the times that an incident would happen nobody would be able to find out where or why the incident occurred and that the system is compromised. FireEye is a better product because if the incident already happened I know that the breach is there and that the system is compromised so we can take appropriate action to prevent anything from happening."
"The Web-filter in this solution is not very good."
"FortiGate is really good. We have been using it for quite some time. Initially, when we started off, we had around 70 plus devices of FortiGate, but then Check Point and Palo Alto took over the place. From the product perspective, there are no issues, but from the account perspective, we have had issues. Fortinet's presence in our company is very less. I don't see any Fortinet account managers talking to us, and that presence has diluted in the last two and a half or three years. We have close to 1,500 firewalls. Out of these, 60% of firewalls are from Palo Alto, and a few firewalls are from Check Point. FortiGate firewalls are very less now. It is not because of the product; it is because of the relationship. I don't think they had a good relationship with us, and there was some kind of disconnect for a very long time. The relationship between their accounts team and my leadership team seems to be the reason for phasing out FortiGate."
"We had a minor problem where there was a major system upgrade on the hardware platfrom and the Mac client was not available as soon as it might have been. The PC client was available immediately, but we had to wait a month or so, before there was a mac client. I was slightly irritated that it was not ready on time, but it was eventually resolved."
"Fortinet already improved FortiGate, but in the current market, many brands of security devices have improved together. Fortinet still needs to catch up with market standards. Fortinet is lacking in features in comparison to competitors."
"Tunnel flapping was one of the major things I had seen wherein your internet link remains but your VPN tunnel is down. However, since I got a fix from the TAC team, I have not noticed it, but the customer complained a few times that they couldn't access the internet because of this problem."
"I would suggest that Fortinet add sandboxing to their solution."
"Fortinet needs to overhaul its documentation."
"If they could extend their fabric towards other vendor environments for integration, that would be great."
"The configuration is difficult and it should be easier."
"There are a lot of features that customers do not know about and I think that better documentation would help when it comes to learning how to use the product."
"The solution could cost less. It's a bit expensive right now."
"In terms of other features, I'd like to see a web filter, 10 point control, application control and a DNA filter in the next release."
"The technical support has room for improvement."
"It could be more secure."
"The solution isn't very granular or detailed."
"In comparison to other enterprise-level firewalls, such as Cisco FTD, Cisco has improved significantly. In the past, I believed that Juniper SRX was superior, but after seeing the advancements in the FTD platform, Cisco has better functionality. I have not recently explored Juniper SRX's next-generation firewall capabilities as we only use basic firewall filtering in our enterprise network."
"I would love to see better reporting. Because you can't export some of the reports in proper formats, it is hard to extract the data from reports."
"They can maybe consider supporting some compliance standards. When we are configuring rules and policies, it can guide whether they are compliant with a particular compliance authority. In addition, if I have configured some rules that have not been used, it should give a report saying that these rules have not been used in the last three months or six months so that I disable or delete those rules."
"A better depth of view, being able to see deeper into the management process, is what I'd like to see."
"Stability issues manifested in terms of throughput maximization."
"The problem with FireEye is that they don't allow VM or sandbox customization. The user doesn't have control of the VMs that are inside the box. It comes from the vendor as-is. Some users like to have control of it. Like what type of Windows and what type of applications and they have zero control over this."
"Cybersecurity posture has room for improvement."
"It is an expensive solution."
"Improvements could be achieved through greater integration capabilities with different firewall solutions. Integrating with the dashboard itself for different firewalls so users can also pull tags into their firewall dashboard."
