We performed a comparison between Fortinet FortiSandbox and Palo Alto Networks WildFire based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Advanced Threat Protection (ATP) solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."Integration is one of the solution's most valuable aspects. You can integrate even third-party solutions so that they can send the information or files they quarantine through the FortiSandbox"
"The real-time analysis capability of FortiSandbox is beneficial for email analysis."
"The GUI makes administration tasks straightforward."
"The most valuable feature of the solution is that the performance it offers to users is good, making it useful for us in our company."
"The main benefit of Fortinet FortiSandbox is that it allows organizations to detect and prevent unknown threats from entering an infrastructure."
"Compared to other solutions, it's easy to configure and implement because of the templates. The timing of scanning files is faster."
"The solution extracts an attached file before reaching the user and notifies the user if there's something malicious in the attachment received along with an email."
"The dynamic behavior analysis is excellent. We have many attacks caught by the FortiSandbox as zero-day attacks. Additionally, the administration is simple and can be customized to fit your companies needs."
"Stability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten since we never faced any issues."
"The analysis is very fast."
"Using WildFire has reduced the number of viruses and the amount of malware that comes into our system, which means that I don't have to rely on the end-users to identify it."
"A good tool for file scanning and email threat detection, especially when it comes to attachments and communications."
"Scalable ATP solution that's quick to set up. It demonstrates good performance and stability."
"It helps us when segmenting and securing the network and all sort of technologies, all sort of next generation needs. It's next generation phases of firewall like anti-virus, sandboxing, wifi, and VPN."
"My primary use case for this solution is for a secure gateway."
"The technical support is good."
"In general, maybe they are not updated to cover risks."
"Sometimes, there are issues upgrading the version of the firewall or the SD-LAN box. After we upgrade to the latest version of the software, we still have the same box. I think it's the same for every vendor."
"For additional features, maybe a form of execution pain files in a non-virtual environment because it has threats that identify when it is being run in a virtual machine."
"The reporting tools could be improved in Fortinet FortiSandbox."
"It can be difficult if you need to use the Command Line Interface (CLI). It's much easier if you only have to deal with the GUI."
"There could be more templates and a higher number of simulated VMs to configure more use cases. Sometimes we need to configure many use cases in many different environments, and if the number of VMs that we configure is limited, we have to remove some and reconfigure the environment if we need another environment."
"The use cases in Fortinet FortiSandbox are not good. It is difficult to upload a custom VM for Fortinet FortiSandbox. The integration of Fortinet FortiSandbox with other Fortinet or FortiGate firewalls is not good. VMs are already installed in the hardware and are working fine, but we tried to approve the custom VM many times but did not succeed."
"If we can have more dashboards, it would be good."
"Management and web filtering can be improved. There should also be better reporting, particularly around web filtering."
"Our main concern is that everything has to be synced with the WildFire Cloud and has to be checked through the subscription."
"I would give this product a rating of 9 out of 10 due to some slight issues of performance."
"It would be nice if there was an easier way to install and deploy it, such as through the inclusion of wizards."
"The solution can improve its traffic management."
"High availability features are lacking."
"The size of Palo Alto's cloud is big but it could be easier to use from a product management perspective."
"The price of WildFire should be reduced in order to make it more affordable for our customers."
