We have a dedicated network team known as NCC. They periodically share network and firewall reports detailing how external threats are being blocked. We have not used any additional security solutions other than the product since 2019. Our workstations utilize Microsoft Defender at the desktop level, while network control is managed by the product at the firewall level. The main reason we opted for the product is its ability to provide a unified solution across our global operations spanning over eighty countries. Its cost was not our primary concern. I rate it a ten out of ten. Due to our experience since 2019 without any incidents, Fortinet FortiGate Cloud proves to be cost-effective and easy to configure, making it a favorable product for all users. It comes with AI analytics features that use predictive analysis to analyze the network traffic.

GUI access could be improved. It should be simpler to access everything from the portal. Once we log in to the portal, we should be able to access all the Fortinet Cloud options. Onboarding and activating customers in FortiGate Cloud is also tricky. They will come to us asking for help and telling us they can't find the activation. Maybe Fortinet could add something like a wizard that provides step-by-step guidance about what to do next. If I am using this solution for the first time, so I do not know where to click. There should be built-in guided instructions inside the portal itself.

Senior IP Network Defense at MTN

When we're upgrading, it's sometimes quite challenging, especially firmware. We usually don't upgrade unless we have a bug, and we still feel it's not safe to react instead of being proactive. We often have some delays when updating FortiGuard, too. Nevertheless, I believe that it's okay most of the time with proper management. We also run into some problems using FortiGate as a UTM solution. I feel like maybe they're not giving me a full view of the other components that they have in that box. Their box has some DDoS defense, but I need complete DDoS protection. I must not have light DDoS protection on other UTM boxes because if I'm uncertain about the security posture, it will compromise me. We like having everything in one box because running multiple boxes eats up more resources on the computing level. We need a total solution, not half-half.

Valuable Features

"Fortinet FortiGate Cloud has valuable firewall, SSL VPN, and web filtering features."

Room for Improvement
