Overall Satisfaction with Fortinet FortiGate

If I think of a firewall, first word comes to my mind is Fortinet FortiGate. Best in the industry, as well as in reliability and scalability. This firewall has a wide range of features and an infinite number of applications which can be used according to the requirements of an individual. This firewall is suitable for large scale organizations as well as for small and mid scale organizations. Easy to use with very effective GUI which supports almost all security profiles such as Web filtering, Application Control, IPS, IDS etc etc.
  • Best thing that Fortinet team does really well is their support to the customers which is exceptionally well
  • Supports both GUI & CLI
  • Customization of security profiles is possible
  • Another great feature is their detail log report which is also available on FortiCloud
  • Unified application for all features (Forticlient)
  • Sometimes Forti DNS server becomes unavailable.
  • Their log service has some scope for improvement.
  • Upgrading the firewall version should be done without downtime. Although downtime for Flash formatting the firewall is less but it is there.
Let it be a small office, home or a Multi National Company, Fortinet FortiGate can fit there very well. Performance capability of the firewall is really at the next level. The traffic analyzing feature of the firewall is really efficient and also at a very high rate. The throughput of the firewall is very good.
