Find out in this report how the two Firewalls solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The most valuable features of Fortinet FortiGate are remote access, web filtering, and IPS."
"The most valuable feature of Fortinet FortiGate is URL filtering."
"The usage in general is pretty good."
"With FortiClient, you can easily connect when you are home, check out what you want to do, and connect to your network when you are not at work. You can switch on servers and you can check what is wrong."
"The product is easy to use and is stable. The SV1 functionality is a benefit."
"It is useful for protecting and segregating the internal networks from the internet. Most of our customers also use the FortiGate client to connect to their offices by using the VPN client, and of course, they usually activate the antivirus, deep inspection, and intrusion prevention services. They are also using it for web filtering and implementing various policies dealing with forwardings, NAT, etc."
"We have been able to offer several services to customers in a single box."
"The GUI is good."
"The solution is stable."
"It provided ease of maintenance. If a new firewall was needed, we only had to run the pipelines for this. So, the maintenance was very easy."
"All its features are good. That's why we recommend it."
"I think that one of the best features is definitely the premium version, along with the IDPs in terms of the intrusion detection and prevention system."
"The most valuable feature is threat intelligence. It is based on filtering and can identify multiple threats."
"Azure Firewall's feature that I have found most valuable is its scalability."
"The SIEM that Azure Firewall provides us is very robust."
"The feature that I have found the most valuable is the control over the network permissions and the network."
"The web blocking for my clients and the application control are valuable."
"The initial setup is very easy."
"The Untangle firewall is a software firewall, so it runs on generic hardware. We found that was probably the best feature, and it's why we chose it when we started using it three years ago."
"Its detection, antivirus, and filtering features are the most valuable. The facility to connect by using the VPN connection is also a very valuable feature. It is very strong, secure, and reliable. We have implemented the Untangle solution in all hardware. It is also a user-friendly solution. It is easy to learn and easy to configure."
"We find the web filter very valuable."
"The product is easy to implement."
"The product helps small and medium enterprises secure their networks from intrusions. It also has features like DNS blocking."
"The product’s most valuable features are endpoint protection management, load balancing, and connectivity with Active Directory."
"I would like Fortinet to add more automation to FortiGate."
"The solution could be more evenly structured."
"It should come integrated or have its own type of network monitor tool in a module. There should just be one package, and you are good to go."
"Some of the filtering is not robust, you can escape it with a VPN. Some of the users bypass some of the filters. It catches some but it also misses some, that area could be improved. It's functioning reasonably but there's room for improvement in that area."
"The support from Fortinet FortiGate could improve. They are not easily accessible when we need them. They could improve their response time."
"Fortinet FortiGate could improve by having more storage in the hardware for log data."
"It should be more stable. There should be full integration within Fortinet products themselves as well as with other third-party products. Especially when you're not dealing with SIEM and the correlation of the security box, we want Fortinet to be able to share that information with as many other products as it can."
"Fortinet FortiGate is not very easy to use. The navigation could be improved to make it easier to use."
"It's a little heavy compared to a FortiGate or other firewalls."
"There is room for further integration of AI into the system."
"They can improve the pricing of Azure Firewall."
"The threat intelligence part could be better. I don't see why our customers have to get an additional solution with Azure Firewall. It would be great if they made it on par with Palo Alto."
"It would be nice to be able to create groupings for servers and offer groups of IP addresses."
"Azure Firewall definitely needs a broader feature base. It should be able to go all the way up to layer 7 when looking at applications and things like that."
"It would be much easier if the on-premises, firewall rules, had some kind of export-import possibility in place, which is not the case right now."
"The solution doesn't offer the same capabilities of Fortinet. It should offer intrusion prevention and advance filtering. These are two very useful features offered on Fortinet that Azure lacks."
"The product should improve reporting."
"The management console for partners is a bit tricky (buggy)."
"On their low-end appliance, they could have more memory and the largest storage space. The low-end appliance comes with a too-small hard drive, and it could use a little extra room. It only comes with about 4 gigs or 8 gigs of memory, and the hardware space is only 40 gigs, which is really small."
"For the web filter, I think they can do better especially on the free model."
"The biggest challenge that we have with this solution is local support. The local support is a problem in our area."
"The ability to setup a DDNS for each WAN independently would be a very handy feature."
"The hardware can be improved."
"The product must improve its reporting features."
