Imad Awwad
Group IT Manager For ME Region at Malia Group
Reliable email filtering and security that functions and learns at a high level
What is our primary use case?
We use the product for spam filtering and as a second layer of filtering for Office 365. I use it for encrypting emails and monitoring all emails that have sensitive data and policies are applied there as well. In addition to having it as a user portal for spam emails and quarantined emails, users can manage their spam, their quarantined emails, and whether they want an address on the blacklist or the white list. Our security department is responsible for all emails that are quarantined by the system so they are monitored. There is two-way communication — not just one way — and FortiMail is… more »Pros and Cons
- "This is a solid email monitoring and security system that learns and maintains a two-way dialog with email system administrators."
- "The product could be improved by extending reporting tools and adding options for notification."
What other advice do I have?
Overall, I recommend this solution to other people. But in addition, I recommend a few additional steps before just accepting a recommendation. First, they should do a POC (proof of concept). Taking the time to do this is one of the main reasons that will motivate you either to choose a product or not based on actually evaluating if the solution can do what you need it to do. Next, evaluate the reputation. By this, I don't mean to look at what people are saying who are using the product in discussion forums but to take a look at the market itself. You want to see what the company's future is…
LucaTurano
IT Manager with 1,001-5,000 employees
Good antivirus and antispam capability that is easy to manage
What is our primary use case?
The primary use case of this solution is for managing spam and viruses in email. We are also using it to send out mail. All of the mail is sent to FortiMailer. FortiMail manages the mail and sends the mail to the main system inside of the company. We have approximately 400 email accounts.Pros and Cons
- "If there is a problem somewhere Fortinet can act on it immediately. That is very important."
- "The setup of the rules can be improved. I think it should be simplified and would be the best improvement in the system."
What other advice do I have?
You can concentrate on the rules and not on what is inside the system because all is managed from Fortinet. Fortinet has a large network that monitors the system around the world. If there is a problem somewhere Fortinet can act on it immediately. That is very important. This solution is good for me. I think the development that I see was enough, but at times it can be too much. Because it is on the cloud it is automatically managed by Fortinet. It is a good solution and a good choice. I would rate this solution a nine out of ten.

Mahmoud Salaheldin
Security Unit Manager at EEMC
Protects us from malicious emails and scales as we grow
What is our primary use case?
The primary use cases for this solution are for Anti-Spam, email security, and email ATP.Pros and Cons
- "The most valuable features are email ATB and Malware Analysis."
- "The URL filtering and handling should be enhanced because it doesn't support all languages. I believe that this would be easy to enhance in the future."
What other advice do I have?
No one will do the installation or implementation for FortiMail, as it will be done by the vendors. Fortinet will do the installation and the implementation, this is the email security, not the email itself. If you have an email like Gmail for example, and you want to apply security layers to secure your Gmail mailbox, you would have to contact Fortinet and they would ask you a series of questions and ask for your email parameters and your email server, then they would redirect your mail to Fortinet to evaluate the traffic, then back to your mailbox. Nothing is done on your side, it's all done…

Good encryption for email security that protects the network
What is our primary use case?
We use this solution for email security. We have both on-premises and cloud versions.Pros and Cons
- "The encryption features are most valuable to us."
- "I've not been able to use more than two domains in the back end. I like to view logs for the different domains. If I add any other domain I'm not able to get a proper cPanel for that domain. I am talking about the login factors. I'm not able to see logs for different domains in a different Window. Basically, it's an issue in the login process."
