Fortinet FortiClient Reviews

We use the on-prem deployment model of this solution. Our primary use case is for the customer side and to connect some external sites to our customer.

The most valuable feature is that it's easy to deploy. Deployment, configuration, and troubleshooting are very easy. 

My customers say they need a consultation to fully integrate services. This needs improvement. I would like to see better integration. 

The price could also use improvement. 

In the next release, some of our clients said that while they can select different customers, they get confused and they would like to also see the logo of the company. The name is written but they want to see the logo as well. 

In previous versions there were some bugs but from 5.6 onwards, it's been good and we've had no issues.

Scalability is very good. It's easy to expand the platform and add users. In my company, we have more than 100 users. 

We only require one staff member for deployment and maintenance. 

Technical support will open cases if there is an issue.

We also Cisco and Sophos solutions as well. 

The initial setup is very straightforward. The deployment took around 15 minutes. 

I deployed it myself. 

We also looked at FortiGate. 

I would rate it a nine out of ten. Not a ten because nothing is perfect. 

We use the private deployment model of this solution. Our cloud provider is Microsoft. Our primary use case of FortiClient is for administrative purposes.

The configuration is the most valuable feature. It is also simple and easy to use. 

The pricing could use improvement. It should be cheaper. 

The reporting can also always be better. 

It is stable. 

We have around ten users using this solution. They are primarily system administrators. We require only three people for the maintenance. 

Their technical support is good. I am satisfied with them. 

We previously used Palo Alto. We switched because we are using Fortinet for the whole network. 

The initial setup was straightforward. The deployment only took a few minutes. 

We first used the reseller for the deployment but then did it ourselves. 

We also looked at Meraki and Cisco. 

It's a good solution. It works fine. It's the right solution if you use Fortinet. If we didn't have Fortinet, we wouldn't use it. 

I would rate it an eight out of ten. 

The primary use case is VPN.

Being able to work from outside the office, it has given us the ability to remotely access information securely.

Remote connectivity is its most valuable feature.

I would like simplicity in the being able to configure the software to use it without a lot of effort.

It's highly stable.

The scalability is limited.

The technical support has been good and helpful.

We were previously using Cisco. We switched because we switched the hardware.

We chose this solution because it is part of a bigger product solution and it has flexibility.

The initial setup was probably more complex. The configuration was somewhat unclear.

We used a reseller for the deployment, who was good.

The solution has helped increase staff productivity by approximately 15 percent.

It has improved our security posture by having this additional product.

Be open to what is out there. This particular solution is good, but there are other solutions out there that may make more sense for what you are trying to achieve.

I'm using Fortinet FortiClient to connect to servers on my company while working remotely from home. Additionally, I use it to connect to cloud applications and cloud servers. It's my company's gateway.

The most valuable feature of Fortinet FortiClient is its performance.

Fortinet FortiClient could improve the compatibility with mobile applications that are allowed and sometimes they do not respond. However, Microsoft Windows applications are very good.

I have been using Fortinet FortiClient for approximately four years.

Fortinet FortiClient is stable.

We have approximately 4,000 technology employees using this solution.

Our internal network team does the support for Fortinet FortiClient. I have not contacted Fortinet FortiClient support.

I have not used another solution other than Fortinet FortiClient.

The initial setup of Fortinet FortiClient is very easy.

I would recommend this solution to others because it is very good.

I rate Fortinet FortiClient an eight out of ten.

I would rate the solution higher if the solution has better compatibility with the mobile application.

We use FortiClient to connect to our network and to access our internal resources.

The Fortinet FortiClient is simple to use.

It is easy to install and it supports two-factor authentication.

It has good reporting. It's user-friendly and has good documentation.

We have been facing some issues when we use the web browser to log into the VPN gateway and we use the SSL VPN through the web page and have found that the browser is unstable.

It is difficult to get logs for the client on the firewall.

Technical support can be improved. While they respond quickly they don't resolve the issues quickly.

I have yet to find the benefits of the latest upgraded version.

I have been using Fortinet FortiClient for one or two years.

We are using the latest version.

I find it to be stable, but we want to enhance the VPN connection.

We have not tried to scale it yet.

We have contacted technical support, and they respond very quickly.

There times that they cannot address the issues that have and spend a lot of time trying to support us.

The initial setup is straightforward. It's quite easy to setup.

I don't have the licensing schema for the VPN solution because we just purchased the VPN gateway.

We are evaluating solutions to enhance the protection for the endpoint that has been installed on laptops or PCs, for when they take the laptop or PC out of our office and connected it to the internet.

We want to find a comfortable solution for the ACL or EDR.

I would rate this solution a seven out of ten.

We primarily use the solution for remote access.

The solution's most valuable feature is its integration capabilities. The processing is fast and the reporting is also very good.

The pricing of the solution should be less expensive. 

 It would be nice if you could connect to three or four sites at a time.

The solution is very stable. I can use it up to eight hours a day with no problem.

The scalability could use improvement.

The technical support for the solution is great. We had a case previously where the tech team quickly responded to our needs. They're very fast.

We are using the on-premises deployment model.

I would recommend the solution. You can use it anytime, anywhere, even from the beach if you wanted to.

I'd rate the solution eight out of ten. It's very functional.

We implement FortiClient software for our VPN users. We have so many important users who connect through the VPN from their offices and home.

We are using the latest version.

We use it configure the user's gateway and set up authentication through our firewall site. Then, we ask the user to login. Once the authentication get approved, the user will get access to resources. 

It is very easy and useful. A normal user with basic information can easily connect to any environment.

It is good.

It is good.

Technical support is awful. Their online response time is not prompt. They should not respond after four or five days. Their support guys are not competent enough. Small issues are taking time. They are not quick like Dell EMC or Microsoft on chat. Those companies will log into your environment, look at the issue, and resolve the case.

The price is okay and competitive.

I would recommend FortiClient. This is a really good security product in the market.

They have good products which they are improving.

We supply FortiClient to our customers. In Croatian terms, we supply mid-size companies although in European terms they are probably relatively small organizations. We are partners with Fortinet and I'm the pre-sales manager. 

We use the basic features and they work well. Our customers are generally looking for a solution that works well and they get it with FortiClient. 

The documentation of this product could be improved. 

I've been using this solution for three years. 

The solution is stable, we currently have about 100 people using it. 

We previously worked with Cisco AnyConnect and before that, with Microsoft, all the PPTP. But that was a long time ago. 

The initial setup was straightforward. 

If you ask our customers, they would always want the price to be lower, but I think it's reasonable.

As with every significant installation, you have to plan well and be aware of your needs. A part of that is checking which features are supported and which are not supported.

I rate the solution nine out of 10.
