"It is perfectly stable. We haven't received any complaints from customers regarding stability or performance. It's been smooth sailing so far."

"The domain integrator functionality is particularly noteworthy, allowing me to leverage my existing network infrastructure."
"Security for malware and threats is the most valuable feature."

"The solution is not user-friendly."
"Integration with Azure and SaaS provisioning tools could improve Fortinet FortiEDR."
"The amount of usage, the number of details we get, or the number of options that can be tweaked is limited in comparison to that with other EDR solutions"
"The support needs improvement."
"The security should be strong for the cloud. Some applications are on-prem and some are on the cloud. Fortinet should also have strong security for the cloud. There should be more security for the cloud."
"The SIEM could be improved."
"The solution is not stable."
"The dashboard can be improved."
"I like the Application Control feature, but it's a bit tricky. Managing it can be a bit cumbersome sometimes."
"There is room for improvement in CPU utilization."
"The live monitoring service from Bitdefender's center is expensive and has room for improvement."
"Bitdefender GravityZone Enterprise Security could improve the RDP, I have problems sometimes."
"The lack of detecting security threats and high memory usage need to be improved."
"Overall, Bitdefender GravityZone Enterprise Security is quite good. It always has new features which customers can use for free, so I can't say that something is missing in the solution, though one area for improvement is that the cloud version of Bitdefender GravityZone Enterprise Security still can't connect to a central SIEM. The on-premises version has that capability, but the cloud version doesn't."
"The price has increased marginally recently and I would prefer if they didn't raise rates."
"With Fortinet, some clients have to wait two to four days for a response. That is the biggest complaint from end customer about Fortinet's technical support."
"FortiClient is not communicating with the new version of the firewall."
"Cloud services are very expensive for us."
"The solution can improve by adding new remote console or endpoint features to make the solution easier to use."
"The features for application control and device control must be improved."
"The connectivity could be improved."
"It takes too long to install."
"In terms of improvements, their SSL VPN tunnel can be a lot better. I've seen other products that have got much better VPN features than Fortinet. Some of my colleagues get this error called "License not available." When they get this error, they have to uninstall and reinstall it. This kind of problem is there, and sometimes, we have to open a case with Fortinet to resolve it. Their support is quick, so we are able to resolve and move forward. In terms of new features, when it is connecting, it should check the endpoint and say whether the end client is actually safe enough or whether there is a vulnerability. It should give a pop-up on the client itself. Because I'm on the admin side, I can also see this information in the log. However, if a non-IT user, such as a user from finance, is working on this and there is some problem, he or she would not know about this and would call IT admin to say that this is not working. If the users get a message explaining why and what is happening, it is easy for them to understand."
