Fortinet FortiGate IPS Reviews

It's a great solution for security and a big solution when you consider the functionality and skills. It also has IPS and Secure Web Gateway embedded and we can spawn a lot of solutions in the same box because we use the on-premises version.

I prefer FortiGate because it has a lot of other solutions embedded within it and is the easiest for our technicians to operate. It also has strong security factors, and it comes with SD-WAN.

The price of the solution could be cheaper. 

I have been using this solution for about six years.

The solution is very stable. 

I think it is easily scalable. Our company has about 100 employees and 50% of them are technicians that work with this solution.

I'm located in Brazil and we have technical support available in Portuguese, which is our native language, so I think that the support is a good service.

It was easy to set up this solution. 

FortiGuard keeps the IPS up-to-date for new threats, so my main advice is to keep your license up-to-date because if you forget to update your license, the protection will not be very effective.

I would rate this solution as a nine out of ten.

I like the solution's stability. 

The IPS monitoring can be improved. 

The price could be better. 

The installation was comparatively on the complex side when the solution's ease of use is stacked up against such products as Palo Alto. 

I use Fortinet FortiGate IPS on a daily basis. 

The solution has good stability. 

I like the solution's technical support. 

The installation was comparatively complex. 

The solution could be better priced. 

There are around 500 users making use of the solution in our organization.

I would recommend the solution to others. 

I rate Fortinet FortiGate IPS as an eight out of ten. 

We use this for bandwidth management and user security when accessing specific internet service devices.

Before using this solution, we had many problems accessing our resources because we don't have a lot of internet bandwidth. And by using application control and traffic shaping, we were able to manage users to quickly access services that are important. This tool has aided in the simplicity of our day-to-day management.

I value it's IPS and application control solution.

I would like to be able to see more log details.

I have been using this solution as an integrator for the past five years.

The solution is pretty much stable.

The solution is scalable and we are planning to increase usage in the future.

Customer service and support is great.

We used Sophos in the past. We switched after seeing a presentation on Fortinet FortiGate IPS where we concluded it would be easier to use and more secure for our company.

I think that setup was easy or medium depending on number of resources. Deployment took about a week. We wanted to have control over all of our users so it took some time to create each user on the device one by one and allocate a security profile to specific group of users.

We have this for about one hundred users which include the administrators, IT security and network manager.

Implementation was done via in-house team.

There are currently five team members maintaining the tool.

We do not have physical data for this, but we know that this product has allowed us to have less people working on the security side which provides the company with more human capital to work on other projects. 

It's a year based license.

We evaluated Cisco Meraki. The main difference was between the configuration and the security option that they give to us. With FortiGate we have so many security features that we never have to make any sophisticated configurations making it easy to manage.

Potential customers should first approach Fortinet pre-sales. Our pre-sales agent was able to give us good advice. His technical and buying advice made implementation of the solution easy. 

There are also many resources available on the web that make implementation easy.

I would rate this an eight out of ten.

We use Fortinet FortiGate IPS as a firewall. 

I like its ability to prevent external intrusion into our database. It's so fun.

It would be better if they had a dashboard where we could see what attacks were happening. It would be good to see who's trying to get into our network.

I have been dealing with Fortinet FortiGate IPS for about three months. 

Fortinet FortiGate IPS has been stable so far. 

It's a scalable solution so far, but we're not a very big organization. We have about ten nodes at the moment.

The initial setup was okay, but I didn't do it.

The implementation was done by some pretty good people.

The price is okay, so far so good.

We evaluated different solutions and chose Fortinet FortiGate IPS because we found it to be the best.

I would tell potential users to buy it. I recommend this solution.

On a scale from one to ten, I would give Fortinet FortiGate IPS an eight.

FortiGate IPS is really easy to use. I don't have any problems with this.

Positive

We switched to this solution because it offered the best range of features in its category.

The initial setup of this solution is very straightforward, and deployment only takes between 30 minutes to an hour.

I would rate this product a 10 out of 10, and I would recommend it to any business that is in the market for a security solution.

We have three offices across Gujarat State in India. We mainly use SD-WAN features over the Fortinet and the antivirus IPS, web content filtering applications control.

FortiGate's SD-WAN capability is the most useful feature for us. 

FortiGate's logging and reporting could be improved. I would also like to see Fortinet add a guest management portal. 

I have been using FortiGate for the last nine years.

Fortinet's scalability and stability are fine because I have three units across India, and none have gone down so far. 

I get technical support from Fortinet and my reseller. It's fine. I never have any issues with support. 

We previously used Cyber, but we switched because Fortinet is an established international brand. It is international, stable, and scalable. 

Installing FortiGate is straightforward. Anyone can install, configure, and troubleshoot. Deployment takes only one or two hours. One technician is more than enough to deploy and maintain the solution. 

We have a three-year license.

I rate FortiGate IPS nine out of 10. I would recommend implementing FortiGate to stay secure.

My advice to others is to study the current technology and the existing network well before starting the implementation. Additionally, it is important to collect the data in the right way.
