Fortinet FortiGate IPS Reviews

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

I've been working with FortiGate for close to three years.

FortiGate is stable.

FortiGate IPS is scalable. We've deployed it across about 150 servers.  

Fortinet has local support in our country, and it's really good. 

Deploying FortiGate is hard.

I rate FortiGate IPS 10 out of 10. I work with many companies, and I recommend it all the time. We build a solution based on what the company wants, and we often recommend it.

We use it, for example, to protect our business application servers so nobody can hack those servers internally and illegally access the information they have.

The administration of the solution is the most valuable aspect. It's easy to manage. 

Fortinet has a very well distributed team around our region, and the product is pretty stable.

The integration is good.

We like the dashboards.

The pricing is not overly expensive. 

I have found the initial setup to be very easy.

I can't speak to coming across any missing features. 

The solution has limited scalability. The sizing is based don't eh scale of the hardware. 

I've been dealing with the solution for about five years or so. It's been a while at this point.

The stability so far has been great. there are no bugs or glitches. It doesn't crash or freeze. 

The scalability is limited. You have to change the hardware in order to ensure the solution can scale.

Regionally, we are well covered. Technical support is good in this area. 

The implementation process is quite straightforward. It's not a complex implementation at all. A company shouldn't have any issues with it.

You only need one person to handle deployment and maintenance tasks. This is typically a technician. You do not need a huge team to manage it. 

If you use this solution, within three years, you will get your investment back. It provides a good ROI. 

We find the solution to be very reasonably priced overall.

I'm a partner. 

I'm pretty sure we have the most updated deployment, however, I'm not sure of the exact version number.

I would rate the solution at a nine out of ten overall. My experience has been positive in general. 

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 for its firewall and filtering.

The most valuable features of Fortinet FortiGate IPS are firewall and filtering.

The web filtering categories could improve in Fortinet FortiGate IPS. There are too many websites under the category of Unknown and the other categories are not featuring all the necessary sites.

I have been using Fortinet FortiGate IPS for approximately 15 years.

Fortinet FortiGate IPS has been stable in my usage.

The solution is scalable.

We have approximately 100 users using this solution.

We are using this solution extensively in my organization but we do not plan to increase usage.

The implementation is complicated.

We have an internal team that did the implementation of the solution.

We do not need many people for the maintenance of the solution.

We pay for the license of Fortinet FortiGate IPS annually. There are not any extra costs.

I rate Fortinet FortiGate IPS a seven out of ten.

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. 

We use it for our end customers. I am a network engineer for a company that looks after airlines.

Its interface is the most valuable. It is quite easy to manage.

Its performance can be better. We have had performance issues in the past, but we sometimes tend to find that it is more related to what we do in our network than anything else. It is quite a good product, and there isn't much to improve.

I have been using this solution for a couple of years.

It seems to be very stable.

It is scalable.

We don't really use them. There is plenty of stuff online, and it is more of a learn as you go.

It is quite straightforward, but it can be complex if you are on the cloud. A lot of our customers are cloud-based, and it is a little bit tricky trying to set them up.

It is not expensive as compared to Cisco.

The customer decided what they were going to use. We didn't have a say in it.

I would advise others to go for the training courses. One good thing about FortiGate is that you have got free training.

I would rate Fortinet FortiGate IPS an eight out of ten. It is quite a good product, and there isn't much to improve.

We are using FortiGate IPS for network security to prevent intrusion.

I have found most of the features to be good with excellent functionality.

The solution could improve the configuration, there are times the configuration is missing.

I have been using FortiGate IPS for approximately five years.

The solution is stable.

FortiGate IPS scalability is good.

The support is very poor with FortiGate IPS and they need to look into fixing it. The senior support agent does not honor their commitments when ordering products.

The installation is very easy and the configuration went smoothly. It is user-friendly to configure.

We evaluated other solutions, such as Cyberoam, before choosing FortiGate IPS.

My advice to those wanting to implement this solution is to learn the configuration. There are a lot of features to control that should be taken advantage of.

I rate FortiGate IPS a seven out of ten.
