"Once deployed, the management console is simple and easy to use."
"I like the product's scalability and stability."
"The product's user management is an area where my company does not face any challenges."
"Transparent Mode: Since we have multiple sites and roaming users, it has helped us in deploying the proxy to users without having to push any configurations to end users."
"The GUI is quite nice."
"Ability to send decrypted traffic to other security solutions for inspection."
"SWG allows me to track internet usage patterns, helping optimize bandwidth and understand how much time each employee spends online."
"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."
"It has a nice graphic interface and it is easy to find information about effectively using the product because of the large user-base."
"I like the traffic monitoring because it meets the firewall protocols."
"Improve detailed guidelines to deploy the transparent proxy to Firefox users."
"The Sandbox solution should be integrated with the NIST to handle whatever new vulnerabilities or new sites are identified as potential threats."
"The firewall doesn't have any features because some customers are requesting they will install the firewall without licensing. At this time we cannot go further without licensing. Licensing is a must with Forcepoint Web Security firewalls."
"I have been in contact with technical support several times, and I am not happy with them."
"Sometimes attacks or a new ransomware gets through."
"Managing the endpoint for both DLP and web security should be simplified."
"Reports in the sand-boxing, ease of deployment of sensors to ready to go server with one click of a button."
"It's the support that's the problem because that's a different question from the product itself — it's the Achilles heel."
"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."
"It should be set up more specifically so that I only pay for what I want."
