Pros
"The solution is user-friendly and is readily customizable, which allows us to do control and monitoring in a single stage.""The most valuable feature of DataMiner is its comprehensiveness. It provides an open driver that allows you to customize and program each aspect of the system. Additionally, there are many separate modules available that can be used to enhance the system's capabilities beyond just monitoring, allowing you to manage your entire workflow. This is a valuable feature that makes troubleshooting easier and helps to optimize the use of the system.""Data Miner allows you to take control. It has an API to talk to different products, including drivers to talk to the APIs of third-party products. You can control it from the screen."

Cons
"I am looking forward to the company continuing to improve its solution and incorporate new technologies. Specifically, I hope that they will allow their cloud database environment to host services, rather than requiring the use of on-premises digital or physical servers. The company is moving in this direction, but I am still waiting for this capability to be implemented.""We would like to have more products supported by the drivers because there are so many products out there. If DataMiner has not built the drivers to support them we can not control them, we can only see them based on SNMP. If more drivers are included, it won't cost us if we have new products."

More DataMiner Cons →

"It is currently durable, but they may be able to improve it further. They can adapt Cisco technology because of its durability.""The interface and dashboards should improve in Fortinet FortiGate Cloud. Other solutions have better graphical interfaces.""Fortinet FortiGate Cloud could improve the dashboards.""The console or demonstration tool could be more user friendly.""FortiGate Cloud could be improved with increased granularity for our control.""We need some integration or communication between the endpoint and the firewall.""ACL is an area with shortcomings that needs to be improved.""The licensing is a little bit confusing and needs to be improved."
