{"quote":"It can create a gap of three, eight, or even twelve months for the customer.","score":"7"}

{"quote":"When we purchase a new license for one or three years and upgrade it to the existing box, the expiry date does not change from the original.","score":"7"}

{"quote":"The licensing cost and the upgrade process are important considerations.","score":"8"}

{"quote":"FortiGate is a bit pricey, but its unique features and specifications make it an excellent option for certain customers.","score":"9"}

{"quote":"I would like to see improvements made to the dashboard and UI, as well as to the reporting.","score":"8"}

{"quote":"In a FortiGate unit with a lot of interfaces (including virtual interfaces), there is a high probability of having duplication of policies.","score":"8"}

{"quote":"Zones provide the option to logically group multiple virtual and physical FortiGate firewall interfaces. Then, you apply security policies to those zones to control traffic flow on those interfaces.","score":"9"}

{"quote":"By default, policies are sorted by FW interfaces and this makes FW interfaces an integral part of the policies.","score":"7"}

{"quote":"NetFlow is a network protocol developed by Cisco for collecting IP traffic information and monitoring network traffic. It is not supported on FortiGate for those who have a NetFlow analyzer/collector already setup in their network.","score":"9"}

{"quote":"Other vendors, such as Palo Alto, will charge you to have an SD-WAN license, whereas, with Fortinet, it's free of charge.","score":"10"}

{"quote":"We think the price is lower, and suitable for most end users.","score":"9"}

{"quote":"sFlow configuration is available only from the CLI, and discovered that sFlow is not supported on virtual interfaces, such as VDOM links, IPsec, or GRE.","score":"8"}

{"quote":"If you have their firewall, it's free of charge.","score":"9"}

{"quote":"The price is high compared to some of the other solutions.","score":"9"}

{"quote":"We receive many reports from users who browse the web with antivirus sensors applied to their firewall policies.","score":8}

{"quote":"Secure SD-WAN is free of charge.","score":"10"}

{"quote":"The antivirus sensor analyzes all the protocols and packets we specified, and this is an important performance affectation.","score":7}

{"quote":"The price for the Fortinet FortiGate is reasonable.","score":"8"}

{"quote":"Sometimes, we have seen that when you enable the antivirus sensor, customers report slow web browsing.","score":9}

{"quote":"They could improve performance with all the UTM features working.","score":8}

{"quote":"It's average or normal as compared to Palo Alto and Check Point firewalls.","score":"7"}

{"quote":"We recommend that our clients supplement it with other products.","score":"7"}

{"quote":"Its pricing is good.","score":"8"}

{"quote":"It claims it does DLP, but the degree and level of controls are very basic.","score":"8"}

{"quote":"Sometimes it's super hard to figure out what's wrong with a Fortigate VPN unless you know the commands on the CLI to see the flow and how to interpret it.","score":"8"}

{"quote":"They should improve that high CPU and memory usage that occurs.","score":"7"}

{"quote":"Imagine providing all steps, command line syntax, and GUI (if available) and how to take steps to debug the flow and see what's failing.","score":"9"}

{"quote":"When we need to enable Netflow on the firewall, there is a high CPU and memory usage that occurs.","score":"8"}

{"quote":"Inevitably, there are always quirks and nuances between the Fortigate vendor versus peering with a Palo Alto or an ASA firewall or even a Juniper SSG.","score":"7"}

{"quote":"Consolidate some of the primary real-world scenarios like troubleshooting B2B VPN peering with a business partner or client when initially setting up the VPN tunnel.","score":"9"}

{"quote":"Better documentation about usage of the CLI.","score":"8"}

{"quote":"The solution is quite pricey.","score":"9"}

{"quote":"These two aim to catch all of the FortiGate logs and turn them into friendly reports, many of which are not present in FortiGate itself.","score":"8"}

{"quote":"But the additional costs vary from client to client.","score":"7"}

{"quote":"For a company like ours, we'd always like to pay less.","score":"8"}

{"quote":"For the client to get the richest reports, they need to buy the FortiAnalyzer appliance or hire FortiCloud service.","score":"9"}

{"quote":"The solution's licenses cost the same for different subscription plans.","score":"8"}

{"quote":"Of course, any solution could be less expensive.","score":"9"}

{"quote":"The FortiGate internal reports are good, but could have more details and options for viewing certain network data.","score":"7"}

{"quote":"You get good value for money.","score":"9"}

{"quote":"The reports provided by the equipment could be more detailed, and not so dependent on the FortiAnalyzer.","score":"8"}

{"quote":"The pricing is moderate.","score":"8"}

{"quote":"Stability and technical support are the two major issues I have found with Fortinet.","score":"8"}

{"quote":"It would be nice if backups could more easily migrate between different models.","score":"8"}

{"quote":"Grouping/tabbing (not only by interface) in the policy table of the web GUI would be a great addition.","score":"8"}

{"quote":"You get value for your money.","score":"9"}

{"quote":"They could improve vulnerability scanning.","score":"7"}

{"quote":"Fortigate's pricing is competitive.","score":"8"}

{"quote":"IP tracing works only so-so.","score":"6"}

{"quote":"All the features and support are included in the price.","score":"9"}

{"quote":"Application filter needs more control options.","score":"7"}

{"quote":"Most of our customers are on a three-year license to use the solution.","score":"8"}

{"quote":"Although it has policy control and web filtering, these could be better.","score":"7"}

{"quote":"The price of Fortinet FortiGate is affordable.","score":"10"}

{"quote":"Maybe Linux system monitoring can be improved by the developers of the product.","score":"8"}

{"quote":"We pay for the license on a yearly basis.","score":"6"}

{"quote":"I think it's cheaper than Cisco.","score":"9"}

{"quote":"Licensing costs are acceptable.","score":"7"}

{"quote":"We were, in fact, not able to see any system-related logs.","score":"8"}

{"quote":"We were not able to get anything much out of it when we were facing issues.","score":"6"}

{"quote":"I feel they need to work on the alert and event logs.","score":"7"}

{"quote":"This is a very comprehensive solution but the cost is quite high.","score":9}

{"quote":"The licenses are expensive, turning off some users.","score":"7"}

{"quote":"I'd like to see an improvement in the Bandwidth Management and Traffic limit control.","score":"8"}

{"quote":"You can look for a report for an hour, eventually getting a blank page.","score":"9"}

{"quote":"I think the graphical interface always has room for improvement.","score":7}

{"quote":"It's not intuitive, as the rules will be in the last place you look.","score":"8"}

{"quote":"Other than the licensing fee, there is no extra fee.","score":"9"}

{"quote":"It is on a yearly basis.","score":"8"}

{"quote":"It's cheap in comparison to the cost of Cisco or CheckPoint, for example.","score":"10"}

{"quote":"The price is really low.","score":"9"}

{"quote":"Its pricing is fine.","score":"7"}

{"quote":"The yearly subscription for the security license is rather high, but it is all included for whatever number of users you have and the kind of functions you need.","score":"10"}

{"quote":"It is not complicated by the number of VPN users at a time.","score":"7"}

{"quote":"They have a clear pricing policy.","score":"8"}

{"quote":"I rate the price of Fortinet FortiGate a four out of five.","score":"9"}
