"SWG allows me to track internet usage patterns, helping optimize bandwidth and understand how much time each employee spends online."
"I have found the simplicity of the solution valuable. The dashboard and reports are good as well."
"The most valuable feature is the ability to allow or block sites by category."
"The product's user management is an area where my company does not face any challenges."
"The tool categorizes the user profiles which is very comfortable."
"Forcepoint Secure Web Gateway does most of its job well, but I especially like its data security feature."
"For the most part, the solution, when set up correctly, works fine."
"I like the traffic monitoring because it meets the firewall protocols."
"It has a nice graphic interface and it is easy to find information about effectively using the product because of the large user-base."
"We think it's a good solution for cloud security, where one has hybrid cloud. They have different cloud solutions like a Office 365 or Azure or Amazon. This is a good solution to control all the different cloud solutions you have in your family of hybrid clouds, from one panel. This is what the main feature we look for."
"The product needs to have more mobility."
"I would suggest focusing on improving the GUI's stability, especially when implementing new filters or patches."
"It has a problem with tablets and the iPhone. It's not filtering on these platforms. It filters on Windows but not iOS or Android."
"We are using a V10000 G3 appliance. It is just a proxy. It is just HTTP, FTP, and HTTPS. Now, as our website has developed and we are using rich time-connectivity protocols, the proxy doesn't have the ability to work with these protocols. It would be nice if the UDP feature was there for it to filter UDP traffic. It needs firewall capabilities for UDP filtering. Its upgrades can be quite complex, and they don't always go as per the plan. Its reporting could be a bit more granular."
"Security of browsing."
"The availability of clusters is limited, and the product is very unstable. The development team is slow as well."
"Managing the endpoint for both DLP and web security should be simplified."
"There should be more hardware models available and the application control could improve."
"It should be set up more specifically so that I only pay for what I want."
"Sometimes when using high availability, the second firewall does not come up immediately if the first one goes down."
"However, we would like them to add more integrations. We would appreciate a more open solution. They're quite good when you have the entire Fortinet ecosystem, but otherwise it's not as good of a solution."
