Overall Satisfaction with FortiClient

We use FortiClient to set up secure VPN connections for remote work. It allows to access company resources from home or business trip.

Pros

  • Secure VPN connection
  • Ease of use
  • Easy to install

Cons

  • Always-on feature in VPN only version
  • Auto reconnect in VPN only version
  • Ensures the secure connection
  • Access to upgrades
  • Support both user/password and certificate based authentication
Overall ease of use influenced my rating.
Mikrotik VPN operates on open standard solutions like OpenVPN, newer WireGuard, and older much less secure: PPTP and L2TP. FortiClient is available as an app on all platforms (IOS, Android, Windows) and there is no problem with migration and installation.
