Fortinet Firewalls Reviews & Product Details

Fortinet Firewall is highly integrative, protects against a whole bunch of intrusion attempts, stops malware, allows for web filtering, and, most importantly, can be deployed locally on a locally dedicated machine or as a virtual environment. When you install the FORTICLIENT alongside it, you get a more robust barrier that stops IP attacks and viruses. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I think that there is room for improvement in the log system. Also, the application could use some "simplification" on the installation side of it. Sometimes, the interface seems to just hang; no idea why; it just does. In any case, there is always room for improvement regarding security. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I love Fortinet Firewall's effectiveness. These firewalls are excellent in terms of configuration and scalability - many, many services and options. Fortinet Firewall's tech support is ALWAYS very helpful. They are quick to provide remote assistance and to offer information and explanations. 100% recommend.

Initial setup is a little intensive, but once you've done it a few times, it's a breeze. Regardless, tech support is literally only a phone call away and you always get a live person. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I am a big fan of the easy-to-manage interface and that I can manage all of my firewalls in the cloud. All of the features I need on a high-end firewall are present, and I feel secure with my network setup. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

We have several units at our different locations and we did have some trouble with one of our units having some DNS issues. We were eventually able to diagnose the issue and resolve it, but it was frustrating at the start. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The Fortinet Firewall is easy to work with. The web interface flows nicely, and it does not take long to feel comfortable navigating. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

When you have a firmware update to apply, it brings up a message upon login to apply the firmware, and if you are not paying attention, you could accidentally start the firmware update during business hours. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It prevents from DDoS protection, providing a deep level of security from various phishing sites. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Overall experience is good but there is a lack of visibility in this solution when it comes to tracking of the attack. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Fortinet has given me insight into where your vulnerabilities are on your network. I use the threat monitoring tool, VPN client, as well as Security Fabric tool. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

During the setup process, there were key things that I missed. I worked with the vendor to get those issues resolved. I would say make sure you have a list of devices that go through your current firewall (IP Phones, printers, copiers, etc) Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The SD WAN capabilities is one of the best performance ever. Security policies & Firewall policies are easy to create. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I don't know what I dislike about Fortinet Firewalls Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It's has great gui interface but need to unlock some more options in cli. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Cli options are not in sync with other vendors. We have to write really long command lines to get simple output. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I handled different firewalls before and Fortinet Firewalls (FortiGate) is the easiest and cheapest compared to other leading firewalls. A leader in the Gartner's Magic Quadrant, it really delivers its purpose as an NGFW with built-in SDWAN feature. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The physical ports are not modular, which means the number of ports is fixed in every model. Some models only have copper ports that has no option to change for fiber ports. So I hope this can be addressed soon. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

One window operation we have configured behind all server and internet and VPN configuration we have configured policies separately as per our requirement like danger zone many servers in danger zone and also configure internet as a gateway very secure after this we have no problem about security. Before this, we had many challenges like server compromise after Fortinet we are very secure and satisfied. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Still not face any problem that really hurt us if face any problem just open ticket 24/7 support is available just problem solved we are very happy to use it thank you Fortinet Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
