Fortinet FortiGate Cloud Previous Solutions

AA
Senior Network Engineer at Association of Village Council Presidents

We transitioned from using WatchGuard to Fortinet because we required the advanced capabilities of the NexGen firewalls. When comparing the two, I find WatchGuard to be more straightforward due to its traditional approach, while FortiGate offers advanced security features with its NexGen firewall. In terms of scalability, I would rate FortiGate a six compared to WatchGuard's four.

I worked with Cisco firewalls in the past. All of them are powerful, but I prefer Fortinet because it's more user-friendly. Cisco is quite challenging and requires more skills, practice, and study. 

On the other hand, I like that Cisco is a managed service, and their services are quite good. They're willing to go the extra mile, but I can say that FortiGate's support is even better than Cisco's.

We use the on-premises FortiGate Firewall solution in addition to FortiCloud.

We have pfSense available in the company but we have not run it since implementing FortiGate. It is available as a backup in case our FortiGate fails but this has not happened so we haven't used it.

I do not have any hands-on experience with other similar products.

When I started my job at the company, they had a Juniper firewall, but it was out of warranty and out of contract. While researching, I found the Fortinet FortiGate Cloud, and I read some good reviews about it which were good and this is why I selected it.
