"I emphasize the importance of automation in Wi-Fi management, particularly in tasks such as certificate renewal. The requirement extends to the ability to generate new certificates from a local server within the data center. There is a need to establish a new server for local certificate issuance and highlights the desire for automation in the deployment process. The emphasis lies in leveraging automated solutions to streamline these operations effectively."
"The current version is stable...Scalability-wise, it is a fine solution"
"Features the addition and removal of access as needed for the VPN."
"The product's on-premise version doesn't have recurring costs."
"The most valuable feature of the solution is RADIUS service and the social network integration feature."
"The initial setup is so easy and there is no problem in the implementation."
"This is a scalable product."
"The logs have great detail that make it easier to evaluate and control the security environment."
"The solution is very easy to manage."
"From an automation perspective, PKI is a bit of a debatable topic and can be improved as time demands."
"The customer finds value in adopting a platform from Jira, particularly for the ease it brings to their processes, both for on-premises operations and batch processing. Their objective is to create a new customized server specifically designed for generating certificates. This server is intended for the generation of certificates, emphasizing that it is not meant for free domain replacement. The platform of choice for this purpose is Digital One, a product that offers full customization and aligns well with the customer's preference for tailored solutions.The process of certificate issuance from Microsoft's AB involves renewal or replacement every five years. However, an issue arises in that this particular certificate requires renewal annually instead of the standard five-year cycle. The challenge is attributed to personnel changes, where an administrator responsible for the process resigns within the five-year period. To address this, we seeks an automated solution that operates seamlessly with a single sign-on approach, eliminating the need for user IDs or passwords. The automation involves approval and subsequent deployment without complexities. Us, being a partner of DigiSet, relies on their implementer for support in service deployment, installation, and resolution of any issues that may arise."

"The only issue I encounter is that when not using FortiAuthenticator for an extended period, it's typical to encounter some obstacles in the configuration process that you need to address."
"It can not use SQL to query FortiAnalyzer directly."
"It does the job I paid for, but the graphical interface could be improved."
