Find out in this report how the two Firewall Security Management solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The most valuable feature of Fortinet FortiGate Cloud is the logs are stored longer on this cloud version. If you have the on-premise version you will not be able to store the logs for more than one or two months."
"The tool's GUI is user-friendly."
"One firewall box can contain various top-of-the-line services that are packaged together for easy administration."
"It's user-friendly."
"The most valuable features are management and integration."
"Our customers implement this solution so that they can be assured of security in their environment."
"The solution offers good network performance and efficiency."
"The solution is scalable because they have models that allow it to be right sized."
"One valuable feature is centralized management. We are able to manage it centrally for two to three remote offices, our head office and our data centers. So, it is very simple to manage."
"The most valuable feature is WildFire."
"The most valuable features of this solution are that it works better than a normal firewall, easy to explorer all of its features, and it has the Log Collector mode. This mode allows us to store our logs for two years in the solution itself."
"Palo Alto Networks Panorama has a lot of features."
"The solution is absolutely stable."
"We use the solution for centralized monitoring."
"It's great for creating signatures and activating activities."
"The solution, especially the latest versions, is very stable."
"ACL is an area with shortcomings that needs to be improved."
"Its price should be better."
"FortiGate Cloud could be improved with increased granularity for our control."
"The solution’s pricing and stability could be improved."
"Everything related to the graphical user interface should be improved."
"When it comes to technical support, the problem we have found is that if an issue comes, it takes a day to get everything resolved. It could be faster. They can be better at optimizing how they answer tickets in terms of response times. There must be ways to make the process more streamlined. It would make it easier for their clients."
"The console or demonstration tool could be more user friendly."
"There are European and US clouds and sometimes we mix them up. The solution should make determining the clouds more clear, or make one cloud instead of having separate ones."
"In the future, it would be beneficial if Panorama could include a firewall assurance feature similar to Skybox."
"Lacking in speed and reliability."
"Customer support can improve."
"We found a vulnerability where when we have a low flow, like 2.7K, it is not getting fired by the threat prevention. That's something important to improve on. They should have a proxy or some solution to solve the issue. We also found some issues around decrypting the flow. When we have more flow than expected to decrypt, the performance goes down."
"The solution should improve the speed at which they make changes on the system. Historically, they've been a bit slow in that respect. They should apply changes to the box quicker and more often."
"We have had some issues in the past because integrating a new device is not intuitive."
"Price is probably one of the biggest things that we struggle with, specifically with Palo, and that's across their whole portfolio."
"The current documentation is not detailed enough."
