We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.

Pros
"Customers want to load balance more than eight lines or six internet lines. FortiGate is the only solution that can accomplish this.""What I like the most is the configuration and that it's simple, and straightforward to maintain.""Centralized monitoring, policy management, and virtualized appliances allow us to take control over our public and private infrastructure.""The most valuable features are simplicity, management, and that it's constantly evolving.""From the firewall perspective, the rules and policies are very sufficient and easy to use.""Virtual Domains (VDOMs) are a feature that we found valuable.""It is a one box solution, which covers most of the edge device’s requirements.""The simplicity of the product is great. It's very easy to use, which is a compliment we get all the time in terms of feedback."

More Comodo Dome Firewall [EOL] Pros →

"It is a stable solution.""The absolute best part of Sangfor NGAF is their support. It's a 24/7 support channel, and the last time I requested their assistance I got a reply within three minutes. They helped solve the problem immediately.""The level of support provided to local companies is good. They transform their application control and other settings according to that country.""SSL VPN is the best feature.""Sangfor NGAF works accordingly with our customers. The solution has good performance, easy to use, and integrates well with the endpoints.""It's a very simple to use product.""You might try Sangfor if you are on a tight budget.

Cons
"The main aspect of FortiGate that could be improved is load balancing. Our management team does not want to buy another appliance for only load balancing.""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.""We have an issue with hotel guest vouchers.""Fortinet FortiGate could improve by adding FortiAnalyzer to its solution, we should not have to use another solution. FortiAnalyzer can provide more detailed information.""The solution could have licensing fees reduced in the future.""It is stable, but its stability can be improved.""They can do more tests before they release new versions because I would like to be more assured. We had some experiences where they release something new and great, but some of the old features are disabled or they don't work well, which impacts the product satisfaction. The manufacturer should be able to prove that everything works or not only that it might work. This is applicable to most of the other services, software, and hardware companies. They all should work on this. We cannot trust every new release, such as a beta release, on the first day. We wait for some comments on the forums and from other companies that we know. We always wait a few weeks before we use the updated version. They should also extend the VPN client application, especially for Linux versions. Currently, it has an application for Linux devices, but it doesn't work the way we want to connect to the VPN. They use only the old connection, not the new one. They have VPN client applications for Windows and Mac, but they can add more useful features to better manage the devices and monitor the current health of each device. Such features would be helpful for our company.""The debugging and troubleshooting has room for improvement."

More Fortinet FortiGate Cons →

"I haven't seen any feature that will allow me direct authentication for a VPN solution."

More Comodo Dome Firewall [EOL] Cons →

"The setup phase is quite complex.""Our experience with its customer support was quite challenging.""The reporting and log management could be improved.""The interface and user experience are horrible.""The web interface needs to be improved, making it more user-friendly.""I believe that IAM and NGFW need to merge into a single box, instead of there being two separate box solutions.""Sangfor NGAF could improve the policies and default criteria. They could be much better.""Sangfor could improve by providing better real-time reporting, as the current reports don't offer the level of detail we need, especially for runtime insights."

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "Fortinet has one or two license types, and the VPN numbers are only limited by the hardware chassis make."

  • "Go for long term pricing negotiated at the time of purchase."
  • "Work through partners for the best pricing."
  • "The value is the capability of having multiple services with one unique license, not having the limitation per user licensing schema, like other vendors."
  • "Easy to understand licensing requirements."
  • "​We saved a bundle by not needing all the past appliances from an NGFW.​"
