We performed a comparison between Azure Firewall and Juniper vSRX based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Firewalls solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."Whenever I need something, Fortinet improves and updates the software for me."
"The application control features, such as Facebook blocking and Spotify blocking, are the most valuable."
"The most valuable features are the enterprise modeling and the simple interface."
"It blocks the vulnerabilities that can negatively impact us."
"I only deal with it from a security analyst's point of view. I don't really get into the features of the actual FortiGate. From the security point of view, it works, and it does its job."
"We use the FortiGate Sandbox to detect zero-day vulnerabilities, such as anomalies or malware, that are unknown and have not yet been discovered."
"The simplicity of the configuration and the stability of the product are most valuable. The VPN concentrator is very useful."
"The customization potential is quite impressive."
"The firewall policy control, URL content control, and antivirus are all the most valuable aspects. Threat prevention is as well quite good."
"The most valuable feature is the integration into the overall cloud platform."
"The SIEM that Azure Firewall provides us is very robust."
"The solution has many useful features. For example, the solution allows users to create virtual IP addresses."
"All its features are good. That's why we recommend it."
"I can easily configure it."
"The feature that I have found the most valuable is the control over the network permissions and the network."
"We secure the entry point to the virtual data center with the firewall."
"One of Juniper vSRX's most valuable features is its integration with safety applications. It keeps the software secure from developers without relying on third-party solutions."
"It is easy for me to go in and update settings, make changes, or add/remove rules or security."
"The tool's most valuable features are routing features and service quality."
"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."
"The dashboard, customization, API, and pricing are good."
"The features we found most valuable are using the IDS and IPS during protection. The application filtering feature is great."
"I'm told the solution is the fastest, and, so far, I do find that to be the case."
"This solution works well. Their switches and firewall are good."
"It is quite new for us, and we need to go more in-depth into the monitoring tools. It provides different features that we need to do what we want. So far, it is okay for us. In terms of improvement, in the future, they can provide a faster implementation of features. Some of the features are first available in other solutions. Fortinet sometimes takes a little bit longer than other solutions, such as Check Point, to implement new features."
"It does not have key authentication for admin access."
"Fortinet FortiGate could improve by having better visibility. Palo Alto has better visibility."
"The solution's framework needs to be frequently updated in order to have a stable solution."
"Lacks sufficient security options."
"This product could be improved with Active directory integration and better handling in IPsec and GRE Tunnels."
"The search tool needs improvement. It's very difficult to search for policies right now."
"I would like to see more advanced developments of a wireless controller in the future."
"It's a little heavy compared to a FortiGate or other firewalls."
"Azure should be able to work better as a balancer also, instead of just being a firewall. It should have a wider mandate."
"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."
"It is a cloud service, but the lending speed for each region is not always the same. For example, in China, the speed is slow. They need to think about how to make sure that the service pace or speed is always the same in all regions. It would be a great improvement if they can provide the same pace worldwide."
"An Azure firewall is not a real firewall."
"The reporting, logging, and monitoring features, as well as the flexibility of the policies, need to be improved."
"There is room for further integration of AI into the system."
"This solution is not mature when it comes to handling perimeter traffic like internet browsing."
"We worked with Cisco's support and Juniper's support and there are some differences, to be honest, Cisco is more available and is more competent at addressing our cases."
"They could provide support for cloud deployments."
"he stability could be improved."
"The tool's basic license does not cover everything. It needs to improve visibility and availability."
"The security feature must be improved."
"I would like to see an activity sensor for malicious content or sensor for viruses and malware."
"The reporting can be improved."
"The solution could improve its technical support."
