It just runs and gives us reports. It also sends us alerts when there is something that we need to look at. It does its job, and you just look at the reports. In other ways, you just forget that it is there."

"The tool is expensive."
"There is room for improvement by increasing the solution's knowledge base."

"Fortinet FortiClient should improve its visibility of the consumption of traffic and end-user action, which is very low."
"The initial setup was probably more complex. The configuration was somewhat unclear."
"I would like Fortinet to improve FortiClient's compatibility with macOS."
"We would get a lot of false positives and instead of them fixing the false positive, they would just want us to put in an exception, which I didn't care for."
"Their management interface is a little buggy. It requires a few system resources on the management interface. Its reporting can also be better. Overall, the reports are pretty good. They patch some third-party software, but if they can expand what they do for reporting and patch enterprise software, it would be handy."
