FortiAppSec Cloud Reviews & Product Details

While we use it as an mirror alternate to AWS WAF for our China accounts, It brings in lot of value ad interms of very less manual effort and almost covers all of our security aspects for both our internal and external apps.

Its Signature based detection and Advanced Bot protection defn needs a praise.

Synthetic Testing, Fabric Connector options really put forti's Appsec in driver position.

Its very easy implementation, to use and configuration and integration with cloud (AWS & Azure market place pfferings) comes in handy. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Just like any other software, its initial setup initial setup can be a head-scratching because the platform offers an overwhelming number of useful but complex options.

Reporting is some what limited which we got to knwo during our training and it pretty much remained the same today. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I think the automatic security and centralized dashboard in FortiAppSec Cloud are pretty good. It's easy to integrate with Fabric, which is helpful, and it's pretty fast and easy to deploy and scale. The automatic security reduces manual rule tuning, and the centralized dashboard improves visibility and response time. The Fabric integration allows automated threat sharing across network and application layers, which improves both security posture and operational efficiency and also improves application latency.

The initial configuration and setup for complex rules can be tricky, which is challenging for first-time users. Also, the UI and UX could be improved, particularly with richer incident storytelling like timeline-based views and smarter risk scoring. Sometimes, there's a bit of performance issue during peak traffic, and there's a lack of detailing in incident reports. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I use FortiAppSec Cloud to secure and monitor our web applications and APIs. It helps us detect vulnerabilities, manage security policies, and maintain visibility into potential threats in our cloud environment. FortiAppSec Cloud centralizes monitoring, improves alerting, and helps us respond to risks more efficiently. One of the best features is its centralized board and control center, which offers a consolidated view of application health, threat activity, and policy status in one place. This allows me to quickly see recent alerts, traffic patterns, and any flagged vulnerabilities from a single screen. The initial setup was pretty easy. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I think the personalized UI could be improved. I would like to be able to change the data into a format I like, including the color scheme. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like the FortiAppSec Cloud's clean dashboard, which lets me quickly understand what’s happening without digging through endless logs. I also appreciate that I can log in and immediately see what types of attacks are being blocked, where traffic is coming from, and whether there are any unusual spikes. It's our security shield in front of our applications. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The UI is clean overall, but sometimes when you're trying to troubleshoot something specific, you have to click around more than you'd like. A more straightforward log search or clearer explanations inside the dashboard would help. The UI is not customizable as well. I would love to see that option.

The initial setup was very straightforward and I appreciate the unified management and reduced complexity it offers. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I find the custom rule tuning tricky at first and the UI/UX lacks intuitiveness. It could use better incident timelines and risk scoring for an overall polish. There's also occasional performance dip or latency under high traffic or complex rules. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The ease of use and the way it can protect applications and APIs effectively while aggregating all logs into one system that requires little maintenance. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Greater reporting and analytics capabilities (more customization, flexibility). Would help with visibility/troubleshooting.

No big problems reported so far, but the product could be a bit more user-friendly and have better reporting. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What I find challenging about FortiAppSec Cloud is that, despite its robust capabilities, the initial setup and configuration process can be quite complicated for those who are new to the platform. Making the most of some of its advanced features also demands a certain level of technical expertise. Furthermore, the user interface is not as intuitive as I would like, and the options for customizing reports are somewhat restricted when compared to other solutions.
