Fortinet FortiWeb Reviews

The most valuable features are support and security.

More templates should be made available for reporting.

I would like to see more improvements with respect to threat intelligence.

I have been using Fortinet FortiWeb for a few years.

This is a stable solution.

Scalability is good. We have more than 1,000 users.

Not applicable.

Evaluate this product against other vendors out there.

The most valuable features of the product are its IPS and VPN server.

The device is very handy and it helps us to protect our web and database servers from being penetrated from outside the office.

The antivirus and the IPS can be improved in the future.

I have used it for about two years.

Fortunately, we have not yet encountered any stability issues!

With the 600-C model, we had some scalability issues.

I did not previously use a different solution.

Initial setup was very straightforward and simple.

These devices, especially the 1500-D model, are really worth purchasing and using.

Before choosing this product, we evaluated many products such as Cisco, Juniper, Cyberoam, and Sophos.

In my opinion, the FortiGate appliances, and especially the D series, are really powerful ones and worth providing for your network.

We were able to protect our web servers from outside attacks. It has really helped us with publishing servers which were published on Microsoft Forefront TMG.

All of its feature are valuable to us. If you ask me which is the most valuable, it is the load balancing, then I would say the security features. Publishing OWA is also a good feature.

We started with FortiWeb400C, then we did an upgrade to FortiWeb 400D. I had some small problems when I was upgrading firmware. After the upgrade, some of my certificates were deleted.

The false positives are also annoying.

We did not encounter with any stability issues.

We did not encounter with any scalability issues.

Fortinet technical support is really good. I would give them a nine out of 10.

We did not use a WAF before. We used Microsoft TMG, but it is not a WAF.

Initial setup is straightforward, and it is not too complex.

It really pays off to buy licences for multiple years.

No.

It is a really good product. It is worth using in your network.

With other vendors you need to go through a learning period. With FortiWeb you can just apply a high-security profile and move on. It's very easy to reduce false positives.

• Built-in security templates
• AV integrated
• Strong threat intelligence

Also, if you serve files or you accept files with your server, Fortiweb has built-in antivirus. The Fortinet product family also provides good IP intelligence (botnet C&C, etc.).

Requires very little effort to add device to topology or replace existing WAF device with FortiWeb.

No issues with stability.

No issues with scalability.

Eight out of 10.

F5, A10, KEMP.

It's very easy.

Be sure to look at industry reviews, they have good knowledge about threat intelligence.

• Firewall policy

• Internet
• Servers

I have used it for a year and a half.

We had one stability issue when I ran it once with Wireshark; it froze.

I have not encountered any scalability issues.

I cannot rate technical support because I have not used it yet.

I switched from SonicWALL to Fortinet. I am happier now.

Initial setup was not that difficult. It was different to my previous solution; I could do it on my own.

Before choosing this product, I did not evaluate other options.

• Be aware of logs.
• Does not compare with Check Point about finding policies.

• UTM
• Ease of use
• Built-in server load balancing
• VPN
• Next-gen firewall features

It provides good security visibility.

A BYOD feature is missing; this could be a good add-on.

I have used it for about 18 months.

I did not really encounter any stability issues; it performs well.

I have not encountered any scalability issues in 18 months.

Technical support is average; it could improve.

We previously used Cisco PIX and ASA. We switched because there is no next-gen firewall in the Cisco portfolio.

Initial setup was straightforward.

Pricing is competitive. Licensing could get expensive as we add feature sets.

Before choosing this product, we evaluated Palo Alto, SonicWALL and Juniper.

It is a good option, keeping in mind pricing and features.
