"The stability is very good."
"Additionally, when it comes to EDR, there are more tools available to assist with client work."
"The product's initial setup phase is very easy."
"The product detects and blocks threats and is more proactive than firewalls."
"The ease of deployment and configuration is valuable. It's very easy compared to other vendors like Sophos. Sophos' configuration is complex. Fortinet is a lot easier to understand. You don't need a lot of admin knowledge to do the configuration."
"Fortinet FortiEDR's scalability is quite good, and you can add licenses to the solution."
"The connection speed is fast. I can connect quickly at any time, and there are never any interruptions to the FortiClient connection. I could easily code into the client's server with that connection, with no lag."
"What I like most about FortiClient is that it's easy to use. The way it displays information is very straightforward."
"We find the VPN features valuable."
"It’s really easy to use."
"When the user gets authenticated, I can assign a different VPN or network to each user."

"Making the portal mobile friendly would be helpful when I am out of office."

"Integration with Azure and SaaS provisioning tools could improve Fortinet FortiEDR."
"I think cloud security and SASE are areas of concern in the product where improvements are required. The tool's cloud version has to be improved in terms of the security it offers."
"Intelligence aspects need improvement"
"ZTNA can improve latency."
"Cannot be used on mobile devices with a secure connection."
"They can include the automation for the realtime updates. We have a network infrastructure with remote sites. Whenever they send updates, they are not automated. We have to go into the console and push those updates. I wish it was more automated. The update file is currently around 31 MB. It could be smaller."
"The current version of this solution does not show the malicious websites that have been visited. They should add this to an upcoming release."
"The only thing that is lacking in this product is the support. Their support can be improved."
"While we like patch management, it would be nice if it could handle patch management for other solutions, like Microsoft."
"Fortinet FortiClient could improve the compatibility with mobile applications that are allowed and sometimes they do not respond. However, Microsoft Windows applications are very good."
"Initially, the support was very poor. It is getting better, but they should continue to improve this."
