We performed a comparison between Juniper vSRX and Stormshield Network Security based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Unified Threat Management (UTM) solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The secure web gateway module and the application control module are valuable. HA operations are very easy."
"The most valuable features of the solution are SD-WAN, filtering testing applications, web filtering, and the new VPN."
"The pricing is great and very reasonable."
"The most valuable feature is the VDOM, which allows the customer to have multiple firewalls in a single campus."
"The most important feature, normally for small business customers, is link load balancing."
"You can create multiple Virtual Domains (VDOMs), which are treated as separate firewall instances."
"The Intrusion Prevention System and the web filtering are both working well."
"The CLI and GUI do a good job of putting a lot at your fingertips."
"There are a few valuable features that offer very good quality on the solution. Especially NetScreen. We used to use NetScreen for the the product line. It was a very mature solution, very robust, easy to configure, easy to manage, etc. It made it easy to do everything."
"It's a very powerful solution and the firewalls offer high performance"
"It's much faster to deploy a power source. If you need to deploy a firewall in the cloud of software, it's much easier and much faster than deploying the office firewall in a rush."
"The architecture of the OS in Juniper is very good. It's flexibility, scalability, and the technicality is also good."
"The hardware is stable."
"The pricing is reasonable."
"The dashboard, customization, API, and pricing are good."
"Juniper is more flexible with the commit check and the commit confirmed command. The design of the forwarding and contract plan in the operating system is very important for the performance when we have very big traffic."
"Easily manageable in a variety of environments."
"The most valuable features are the IPS, the firewall function, and the price."
"Ease of use is the best feature of the product."
"This solution is quick and easy to configure."
"I like that it works fine. Stormshield is a very good solution."
"I like how you can configure the rules. There is the task for the rules and a task for the network configuration. It also provides SMD filtering, and it can be integrated with the active directory for the users, their mission, and the VPN configuration. We are here in Sudan, and Stormshield didn't work in Sudan for more than a decade. Stormshield is a very strong firewall and very easy to configure and maintain. I am just working with the firewall solution, and we don't have any other solutions like endpoint solutions or something like that."
"The solution has improved my organization because I can see what traffic is happening and I can use it to block and prevent attacks."
"The scalability of the solution is good."
"Fortinet FortiGate can be integrated with different platforms. They have integrations in place, but I can't say they're 100%."
"The updates Fortinet provides are sometimes unstable."
"The license renewal process, annual renewal price, and the web application firewall features should be improved."
"We had a minor problem where there was a major system upgrade on the hardware platfrom and the Mac client was not available as soon as it might have been. The PC client was available immediately, but we had to wait a month or so, before there was a mac client. I was slightly irritated that it was not ready on time, but it was eventually resolved."
"I don't really have anything negative to say as far as Fortinet firewalls are concerned. If anything, they can support a user a little bit better. They can stop being so time-sensitive about how much time the support call has taken, and they can help you do it yourself."
"The process of configuring firewall rules appears excessively complex."
"Some of the features in the graphical user interface do not work, which requires that we used the command-line-interface."
"The support we receive when we need to upgrade is not satisfactory and has room for improvement."
"VPN access is an area that needs improvement."
"The solution should consider improving its licensing policies."
"The solution can be improved by allowing automatic updates for the OS devices."
"Right now, we are going through issues and problems where the product gets dropped with the connection or during the authentication initial phase. While it could be our problem, we would like to see more stability in this area."
"They really need to improve the GUI."
"The security feature must be improved."
"Fortinet is more user friendly than Juniper. In terms of remote access, I actually prefer using Fortinet. It's much easier to configure."
"The user interface could always be better. They could make it simpler and more intuitive."
"It could be better if it were more user-friendly. It's too complicated for us to use it. The price could be better as well."
"This is not a next-generation firewall."
"A more user-friendly interface would be helpful."
"With Stormshield, there are difficulties joining things, and it can be complex depending on the architecture."
"This solution has a big problem with web filtering and it needs to be improved."
"Stormshield Network Security is quite expensive."
"Not all the fields are activated yet and we were informed that it will take at least one month."
"The product must improve its pricing."
