Sutjipto Budiman - PeerSpot reviewer
Easy to learn, provides secure access to our internal server, and integrates easily with other products
The product provides secure access to our internal server. The encryption is done by FortiToken. That is the reason we access our servers through Fortinet. We use FortiToken to ensure that no unauthorized person can access our servers. It is like two-factor authentication. It makes us more secure. The mobile application makes our authentication experience better. It is easy to integrate the solution with other products. I rate the ease of integration a nine out of ten.

Helps with password management and sharing
The tool's setup was easy and we have deployed it on the cloud. The deployment was quick and we completed it in less than a week. We have two teams one in the US and another in India. We first implemented Keeper in the US, got feedback, and then implemented it in India. The overall deployment took about four months to complete.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Fortinet offers a comprehensive solution for network security, particularly with its very effective zero-trust network access approach."
"I love the push-button authentication on FortiToken Mobile. It's also great that the soft token automatically reloads the OTP at intervals, so I always have a fresh code to enter."
"Bangladesh is a price-sensitive market, and FortiToken is popular because it's more affordable than the Palo Alto and Cisco authentication solutions. Fortinet has a local director for Bangladesh, so they can deliver solutions to customers quickly."
"Fortinet FortiToken is used for double factor authentication."
"I would rate the overall solution an eight out of ten. The solution is a smart product that anyone can easily access and manage. The solution is a good product for multi-factor authentication and to secure remote authentication in the corporate environment."
"The integrated Fortinet security with the app that allows you to easily do the two-factor authentication is most valuable."
"The product provides secure access to our internal server."
"The initial setup is easy. You receive a QR code via email, scan it, and add it. No complicated procedures involved."
"Support is very quick to respond, and they have fixed any issues that I have had."
"​The installation and its use are very simple​."
"Enables IT department to force very complex passwords for certain users."
"I can access my passwords from any Internet connected device."
"It saves us from duplicating passwords for different accounts."
"Keeper Bridge."
"It syncs with all devices and supports all platforms."
"We can access our sign-ins and passwords on up to five devices per user. This means I can access a given site and my login and password for that site from my home and office computers as well as my phone and iPad."
 

Cons

"The tool could be a little cheaper."
"It could be integrated better if you could have your FortiToken, and the license would allow you to work across multiple FortiGate solutions."
"The app could be improved so that you don't have to actually type in the code. It would be great if you can just do a prompt or push similar to the way Duo does."
"Fortinet FortiToken could be lower for some markets."
"Support is a pain point in Bangladesh because there aren't many experienced Fortinet engineers in this country. It's easier to find one certified in Cisco, Palo Alto, or Juniper."
"It needs a lot of coupling with their other Fortinet products. To implement FortiToken, I most probably need to couple it with FortiAuthenticator for full implementation. An RSA token can be used with many devices, whereas Fortinet FortiToken is always linked to only one FortiGate device. If I want to reuse the token across five or six FortiGates, I would have to get the FortiAuthenticator product. I can't use one token to connect to different FortiGates, and I need to get another product to enable this functionality. They should also improve the support for their mobile client. There should be a more detailed roadmap for the operating systems being supported. Some of our users were using an old iOS iPhone, and they were forced to get a newer phone because FortiToken didn't support that version of iOS. Similarly, there may be a version of Android that is not supported, so the users need to change the phone. This was one of the reasons why our deployment took longer."
"The problem is that our customers create budgets annually based on the figures at the beginning of the fiscal year. Our customers get annoyed when the price is adjusted in the middle of the year. I understand that it's a difficult time, and price increases make sense for hardware devices. However, FortiToken is a software product, so it shouldn't be affected by factors like chip shortages or supply chain issues. Software solutions should have more transparent and predictable pricing."
"The solution comes with two firewalls as a bundle. In that bundle, most of the individual users can be assigned to mobile users. However, in cases of technical difficulties, users may accidentally remove the mobile application. In normal scenarios, we get back to the activation key and assign it again."
"I would like to see a way to store files and photos in the next update​. If it already does this, I have yet to explore it."
"The password rotation feature could be improved."
"The organization of items needs improvement. For example, when I log onto the cloud version as well, everything is shown on my folder. It is hard to differentiate between files and documents in my list of items I have stored inside."
"The technical support has no experience."
"The technical support for this solution could be faster support and improved if they had a better understanding of my questions."
"Its aesthetic needs improvement."
"It would be nice to see this great tool integrate with other tools out there."
"The stability of the solution can be improved."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The pricing is not very high, so I'd rate it around six out of ten, where one is high and ten is low."
"On a scale of one to ten, where one is the cheapest, and ten is the highest, I rate the pricing an eight."
"The solution’s pricing is moderate and reasonable."
"Fortinet FortiToken is not an expensive solution."
"I would rate the pricing as an eight out of ten. We purchased the solution at a reasonable price in 2019."
"The platform's licensing cost is reasonable for our organization."
"It is included as part of our firewall license."
"Overall, it's cheaper than other solutions. Of course, we evaluated it five years back, and I haven't checked to see its current market position, but one reason we adopted FortiToken is its lower cost of ownership relative to other solutions we evaluated."
"The pricing is available on the vendor's website."
"ROI is hard to know, but it has to be several times the expense of the product."
"It's definitely worth it and affordable. Their sales team can definitely help scale your needs on licensing and provide pricing options."
"Its cost is relative to the value of the information stored in Keeper."
"Free works unless the paid is absolutely necessary."
"Just buy the yearly subscription."
"The more users, the better the price. Always opt for the live support."
"Pricing might be a little less, but with promo codes and family plan - best offer"
