I like that everything flows back to FortiGate, which is the controller, management console, and firewall. There's one central point for the entire network, so the security, switching, wireless, etc., flows back to the FortiGate. The ease of management is what customers like. They don't need separate solutions like Cisco.

It offers strong integration with FortiGate solutions. We can manage them both from a single FortiGate console.

So, if you're already using FortiGate, it might unlock some features. But if you're not using FortiGate, then a different vendor might be more cost-effective.

It is very user-friendly. There is no need to use command lines to configure it or to do anything in it. You hardly use command lines, which makes it different from Cisco. In Cisco, the CLI is your best friend. 

Fortinet has the lowest TCO, so you can use its integrated components without having to buy additional licenses. They provide centralized management without needing to buy or acquire additional licenses. You have an integral or complete vision through a single pane of glass, and you can see everything from one single console without having to buy additional licenses, which is a plus. It works the same way when you add wireless. You can see everything from FortiGate.

It has a security processor, which is another plus. It does not have a standard desktop processor. It has a multi-threat security processor, and it is built by Fortinet. So, all the components that you include in a Fortinet solution are proprietary and work in an integral way. It has one single solution, whereas other brands, such as Palo Alto and Check Point, have been acquiring certain solutions, and they're not fully integrated. With Fortinet, everything is integrated. If you start building on Fortinet, everything that you expand to the local LAN or WAN is integrated. You don't have to pay for professional services and other things to do that.

Their technical information is also very good. Most of their information is based on how-to, and it can be found online, which is something my clients like.

Access Point feature is very good. It's easy to manage and reliable.

It tracks very well.

I would rate the the ease of management and scalability within our network architecture an eight out of ten, with ten being best. 

The integration with the whole platform, so there's one dashboard for everything. It is one of the most valuable features. 

One of the most valuable features is the ease of connectivity. With FortiSwitch, you can easily identify who is connected to each port, disable ports as needed, and retrieve configurations from FortiGate when required. Additionally, if one switch goes down, you can seamlessly bring another one online within a matter of minutes. Once recognized by Fortinet and authorized, it automatically receives and applies the necessary configurations, making the setup almost plug-and-play.

The most valuable feature of FortiSwitch is its user-friendly interface, which facilitates easy management and propagation of rules throughout the network. Deploying rules based on various criteria, such as device type or manufacturer, is easy.

The solution's most valuable features are ease of deployment and manageability.

Fortinet FortiSwitch is easy to configure and simple to use with support.

The product is very secure. It's enterprise-level. Because we are always upgrading to the latest firmware and stuff, everything is very solid, and our network runs much better than before.

We needed a large PoE switch to connect to the firewall. FortiSwitch is robust and cheaper than Cisco switches. 

The product is a total solution with the FortiGate, switch, and access point. It is integrated with FortiGate, allowing us to manage all the equipment through it. You can handle everything from a single point. 

What stands out is the effective management and enhanced security provided by the solution's function as an extension of the firewall.

I can't comment much on the valuable features of the solution since I work in a cargo company that has outsourced its IT operations to another company. I can say that the product is easy to use.

It is a cheap and secure solution. The job switching and security features are better than other solutions.

The most valuable feature is the SD-WAN support.

This device is easy to use.

It works really well, I think the equipment is solid, and the help is great. When I buy equipment, even though I'm buying a service in addition to the equipment to have them help me, it's worth paying for that. The service is amazing, and their marketing department should promote it.

The tool's VLAN feature is easy to understand. It was very good. 

We don't need a controller to control the access points. The solution is very simple, and it's very easily available. It has simple configurations and is easy to use. It is easy to set it up.

FortiSwitch Secure Access has a nice interface.

I like the VLAN setup of Fortinet FortiSwitch - Secure Access.

The most valuable feature would be network management, separating the network management component from security. It can do both but we promote it on its own. It's a good solution to do network management. 

Secure Access is a strong platform. It's very user-friendly.

Deploying the solution is a breeze, even a novice can do it. All we need to do is use the web browser, and we can configure all our servers. The licensing is also straightforward and easy to understand. The graphical user interface is very user-friendly, so we don't need to be tech geniuses to use the solution.

FortiSwitch is manageable. We can manage it via FortiGate. And FortiSwitch can participate in the Fortinet security fabric. We can deploy the fabric as well. It is the main feature we use for managing FortiSwitch.

It's stable.

The solution is reliable.

It is easy to set up.

The technical support is helpful.

We find the pricing to be less expensive than Cisco.

Fortinet FortiSwitch - Secure Access has essential features for managing switches.

The feature I value most is the connection from other devices to the Fortigate, so you can manage them from the Fortigate device. You can also use the cloud to manage them and for protection. They know how to talk well to the firewalls.

The most valuable feature is that I can completely isolate devices that are compromising the network. 

I get all of my analytics from the FortiGate point of view. I have FortiGate, FortiAnalyzer, and FortiManager for all of my analytics. The analytics are collected from the switch and everything that is connected to the switch. I get a physical view of every single device that is connected to every point in my network.

I love the view, because I know which computer is connecting to what access point, as well as which computer or node is connecting to what switch and to what port. 

The most valuable feature of this product is its simplicity. The one portal that we are using in FortiGate from Dell is the point for managing everything. The other good features are security-related, it's very easy to use those switches.

The most valuable feature is the security switch. The deployment is also better than competitors like Cisco and HP.

The management from Fortinet FortiSwitch - Secure Access is very good.

 Fortinet is working well for us overall. It can integrate well with other Fortinet products.

All the parts of VPN are working well. The performance has been reliable.

The integration between the FortiGate and FortiSwitch — the reporting and monitoring — is perfect. The reporting and monitoring of the endpoints could not be better. So, for me, this is the best feature of FortiSwitch. 

The security fabric is easy and the ability to manage FortiAP, FortiClient, and FortiGate all from a single console is great. Configuration and installation are quite simple. You can manage the wireless users, and the network users, the security status of all your devices including the laptops, and PC and mobile devices. I think this is one of the top features of Fortinet.

The visual scope of the solution is very good. It allows me to see and download all of the network information.

The interface is great because we can do all the administrative tasks with a user vertical interface. FortiSwitch can be managed by the FortiGate, so a lot of tasks are doable using FortiGate. If you master FortiGate, you won't have a lot of difficulty mastering FortiSwitch. What I really love in FortiSwitch: its usability, the graphical user interface, and the ability to be managed by FortiGate.

The most valuable feature is the breakability after integration with the FortiGate firewall.

Integration is good, as well as price and technical support.
