"One of the most valuable features of this solution is network management. The customer is able to manage their network from home or we can also manage the whole customer network."
"It has good reporting and analytics, that most people can understand without too much difficulty."
"It is stable and reliable."
"It is quite new for us, and we need to go more in-depth into the monitoring tools. It provides different features that we need to do what we want. So far, it is okay for us. In terms of improvement, in the future, they can provide a faster implementation of features. Some of the features are first available in other solutions. Fortinet sometimes takes a little bit longer than other solutions, such as Check Point, to implement new features."
"One area for improvement is the performance on bandwidth demands for smaller devices, as well as better web filtering."
"My only complaint about FortiGate is a lack of QinQ VLAN tunneling. I haven't found this feature in any Fortinet product. You can do this on all Cisco routers, including the smaller models. However, QinQ isn't available on the biggest, most expensive Fortinet units. They still don't have that. I think now we're on software version 6.0, and they still haven't found a solution for QinQ. It isn't a dealbreaker, but that's my main complaint."
"I would like reporting to be improved and should offer a lot more tools to monitor the products."
"We had some issues in the beginning while setting it up, but after doing the firmware update, it is working fine."
"As far as wanting more scalability or things in the network diagram, it's going to cost you."
"Improvement is needed in the Web Filter quotas to restrict users with allocated quotas."
"The performance and speed are aspects of the solution that could always be improved upon."
"The setup can be complex."
"Security is an area that could use some work."
