Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"The solution is very good at preventing intrusions. You can definitely rely on this solution to cover your security.""The biggest thing, for us lately, has been their cloud tools. They're like Intercept X from Sophos, where they'll test for ransomware. Fortinet has the same sort of set up with their cloud devices. So your firewall picks up something suspicious, it sends it up to the cloud for analysis. We also have their in-house antivirus. Having different antivirus checkpoints throughout the network is a good thing as well.""We use it to protect files and to prevent users from browsing them while they are being used.""It is extremely stable, and can expand as per our needs due to its stability.""The most valuable features of this solution are the security aspects.""The dashboard is very simple. It has an easy to use interface."

"Tripwire IP360 is a very stable solution.""We could manage our entire IP range with the solution.""It's become the pinnacle point for anything that enters the network or anything that's passing through to production to first be affected by IP360, hardened, and up to standard. For our integrity management, one was deployed in the bank about two years ago and that's still going to expand the usage and the product itself. That will go hand in hand with training and expanding the product as for where it's deployed."

Cons
"We had some issues trying to fix some critical bugs, such as the SSL encryption.""The pricing of this solution is a little bit on the high side and can be improved.""They need to improve the web filter to make it more user-friendly.""I'm an old-school guy. I really don't like web GUI interfaces. They're always slow and laggy and their design is restricted, whereas a binary deployment for an admin tool is always faster, easier, more flexible. I would like that kind of functionality from Fortinet.""Some use case analyses could be improved.""I would like better APIs and integration with other products, like Python and SQL."

More Fortinet FortiDB [EOL] Cons →

"I am not very impressed by the technical support.""The reporting functions can use improvement. There is room for growth because reporting functions differ a lot depending on what you're going to output. It depends on whether it's for technical or senior management and how it's interpreted. There could be growth within the reporting functionality side.""We need to dedicate time and resources to keep it running."
