If you have a mid/large enterprise network and you need to comply with any of the IT security standards, FortiNAC will help you as it provides complete protection and will provide you needed reports, like logins, times, tries of unauthorized connections. All that can be passed to your existing siem or integrated with other forti products.

• Live logging in the client. Currently you have to "download" the logs into a zip file and then open that zipfile to look at the logs. There's no logfile to tail or watch.
• Load balancing between controllers could be better. Currently relies on round robin DNS and sometimes a browser will pick a different IP than previous and you'll get a big "LOST CONNECTION TO CONTROLLER" message.

Incentivized

• Updates sometimes a bit buggy

The company has been supportive overall of our needs and desired features. I have not personally called the support services, but I've heard no direct complaints either.

The existing system was FortiGate. The management of the system was a hassle. Because IT personnel had to manually create VPN accounts, user passwords were known to who created them and the end user did not have a way to change them. This created a security issue in the event an IT engineer left the company.
