We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Setup cost may be not so low, as you expect, because it depends on different factors, but TCO for 5 years may pleasantly surprise you."
"Fortinet has more device options that are affordable for small businesses than Palo Alto, and its enterprise-level models are also cheaper. Palo Alto also has a separate license for VPN connections and SD-WAN, but FortiGate offers these features standard."
"The price of FortiGate is good."
"Its pricing is competitive with other solutions."
"As far as I'm aware, in our case, it's just a yearly pricing arrangement with no additional licensing costs."
"The price could be lower."
"Go for long term pricing negotiated at the time of purchase."
"It's an expensive solution."
