An excellent solution as a mail server
It is the corporate email system. We have not had any problems with it. It has been wonderful to work with that appliance. The only disadvantage is that it is very straightforward when dimensioning the size of the mailboxes and their backup system. However, in these two years, we have never had to perform any restoration, it is very stable.
- Protects email (virus, spam, ransomware).
- Webmail is intuitive.
- Stable platform.
- Integration with other FortiGate products.
- Customize the size of an email inbox.
- Improve email analysis when sent to an email alias.
- Be able to present storage directly to the appliance. Make it not a closed operating system.

FortiMail: Excellent Spam Filter
Fortimail is used across our entire organization. It is used as our main mail filter and solves our spam issues. It does an effective job of filtering out email attachments that contain malware and viruses. As a result, it keeps our users safe from malicious content that can potentially do harm to our network.
- Filters out spam and malware effectively, and places potential spam in quarantine for review.
- Spam definitions get updated on a daily basis to combat new types of spam.
- Ability to set up keywords to filter from incoming emails and blacklist/whitelist domains.
- Often times there are false-positive emails that get sent to quarantine, even though they are not spam.
- Needs quite a bit of tuning initially to get it to work effectively.
- Have to whitelist domains that may get blocked regardless if they are sending spam.
- FortiMail has had a positive impact because it helps our business stay running and keeps it safe from spam and phishing emails.
- There is a yearly renewal cost to keep FortiMail updated. The positive impact is that there is no downtime due to spam related issues.
- Our business is 24/7 so FortiMail is part of our annual budget and the ROI is that we are not losing time due to email issues.
I have used Barracuda Email Security in the past and FortiMail is just as effective. The interface is easy to use, and the configuration is straightforward in setting it up to work with Microsoft Exchange. Spam detection is effective, as well as malware/viruses and phishing attempts. Overall it is a great service.

Very good, and fast
FortiMail is used as a proxy for inbound email before going to Exchange. We use it to filter spam inbound and outbound. Fortinet is one of the leaders in security, and we think that they are a very good choice to scan for spam, but also virus, malware, fishing, etc. We do not use the mailbox function.
- The configuration is easy enough.
- The UI is great after you learn how to use it.
- Spam detection is fine.
- Malware and virus detection is very good.
- We had many false positive.
- Needs a lot of tuning.
- Less virus detected by computer, stopped before.
- Way less fishing attempts.
- Doesn't need too much resources.
