Find out what your peers are saying about Netgate, Fortinet, OPNsense and others in Firewalls."Layer-3 firewall and routing are the most valuable features."

"The CLI and GUI do a good job of putting a lot at your fingertips."
"Their interface is very easy to use, it is without bugs."
"Fortinet FortiGate's reliability is valuable."
"The virtual firewall feature is the most valuable. We have around 1,500 firewalls. We did not buy individual hardware, and the virtual firewalls made sense because we don't have to keep on buying the hardware. FortiGate is easier to use as compared to Checkpoint devices. It is user friendly and has a good UI. You don't need much expertise to work on this firewall. You don't need to worry much about DCLA, commands, and things like that."
"The solution is easy to configure and maintain remotely."
"Fortinet FortiGate is stable. It's used across all the countries, this is the way most multinationals run their system."

"Palo Alto Networks VM-Series is easy to maintain...From a security point of view, I find Palo Alto Networks VM-Series to be a better product compared to the other solutions in the market."
"You already can scale it if you put it in Auto Scaling groups. If you put it in a load balancer, it should already be able to scale."
"The most valuable feature is the Posture Assessment."
"There could be more integration between the logging and analytical platforms to make it more seamless and integrated."
"Some features of Fortinet FortiGate are actually fee enabled that are inconvenient for deploying in production. Other issues relate to isolation with Cisco products and your server."
"The captive portal could be improved."
"Backup can be improved."
"I need user-behavior analytics, to find threat scenarios from inside the organization, insider attacks. That would be very helpful for us. In addition, I would like next-generation features for small and medium businesses. These businesses require UTM, all in one product. Fortinet must include it."
"The monitor and the visibility, in this proxy, is very weak."
"Technical support needs to be improved."
"The solution could be more user friendly."
"I haven't seen any feature that will allow me direct authentication for a VPN solution."
"Palo Alto is that it is really bad when it comes to technical support."
"It has to be more scalable for the deployment of VMs on the cloud."
"The solution needs to improve its visibility. It's not straightforward to use. Understanding the policies, authorizations, and initializing features requires careful review. The product needs to offer proper training."
"The one issue that I didn't like is that the SNMP integration with interfaces didn't record the interface counters."
"The interface is all Java-based. I would prefer an HTML5 interface."
"The reporting part of the product is an area of concern where improvements are required."
"Its web interface is a bit outdated, and it needs to be updated. They can also improve the NAT functionality. We have had issues with the NAT setup."
"We feel that the setup was complex. So, we asked the tech team about the setup process. They explained how to deploy it in the right way, which made it very simple."
