You can see everything that's connected to the FortiGate, whether it's a switch or a wireless AP or a wireless controller or any other Fortinet product."
"We can deploy a tunnel-based VLAN and SSID, for something that happens at the last minute, in a matter of minutes, because of the interaction between the FortiGate, the FortiSwitches, and the FortiAPs."
"The most valuable feature of the solution is the management."
"Seamless roaming by leveraging Virtual Cell is a major advantage which reduces roam times and issues related to roaming. Code stability has been excellent and the hardware quality is second to none."

"When this solution is set up, it is solid. It offers fast deployment."
"The most valuable feature of TP-Link Auranet EAP is its high performance."
"This product is easy to use."

"Juniper Wireless AP can improve by continually improving its reporting and integration with other systems."
"They should include SD-WAN features to it."
"I need a bit more time with it before criticizing the features."
"Improvement is needed in the user-friendliness of Juniper Mist, particularly in enhancing the interaction with AI features."
"Licensing is the only area that I think they are below average. They need enterprise licensing, an all-encompassing license to cover all products for a company."
"They need to do more with their marketing. That's what's wrong with them. Nobody knows they do all this other stuff. I love the product. For an enterprise-level system, you never have to explain why you're recommending Fortinet, whereas you might have to do that if you want to use the Ubiquiti Professional or the new Netgear line, but you don't have to explain Fortinet. It has been remarkable to work with."
"Areas for improvement would be the compatibility with Apple products and cross-platform integration."
"The pricing for the solution is expensive and can be improved."
"Technical support is very poor. We are not satisfied with the technical support because there is not any direct person from Fortinet for any troubleshooting, which we expected."
"Cost is something that could be improved, but you have to pay for what you get."
"The roaming of Fortinet FortiWLM could improve when comparing it to other solutions. We are missing some of the functionality in the controller. Additionally, they should offer more logs instead of using FortiAnalyzer because all the users will not be using the same thing."
"I have used Cisco previously and I don't see any specific differences from Fortinet FortiWLM or other vendors."
"TP-Link Auranet EAP is not very efficient, they need to improve it."
"It's better for smaller organizations. This would not work for enterprises. It is not very scalable."
"We have some issues with stability. It is not so fast. That is the main problem."
"Aruba has better scaling capabilities."
"It is less affordable for smaller businesses."
"The price of the solution is an area requiring improvement since I want the solution to be made available at a cheaper price than its current market price."
"The technical support could be improved."
"There is room for wider improvements and additional features to enhance managing capabilities."
