You can see on the below ;
- Log analyze need improvement
- Software bugs can be better.
-Packet inspection i think not very well.For that reason sometime application filtering option is not working effectively .For example you can not see the all app details or related app can not blocked by your next generation firewall due to inspection problem.

Very efficient and competitive NGFW firewall.
What do you like best?
With Unified Threat Management (UTM), many elements are integrated that fight against all kinds of woes. This software contains a series of corrective agents and attack prevention and retention agents that can be properly managed. Protects against intruders, it contains a first-line antivirus and a web application firewall, which gives us first-class protection with simplified administration and complete reports. It is very easy to manage IP policy and as content filters for any type of communication protocol.
What do you dislike?
Sometimes it can become difficult to block some type of content from a website with web filtering because web pages contain websites that consume other resources. Administration on a mobile device is very complicated, it does not adapt to the screen of smartphones or tablets and the option of FortiExplore has an additional cost in online stores.
What problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you realized?
In my organization I solve problems of slowness or problem of content block by categories and a stability in other resources, for example in the ease of configuring and using client vpn. The administration of web permissions by users associated with an active directory was facilitated by FortiGate.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I recommend the tool to everyone if you need to have a unified security control in your company. It contains all the necessary tools to perform as a good insurer of your network and to know the operational risks. It is very easy to manage your web administration is very friendly and allows you to understand everything easily. Firmware updates are costly and easy to manage.
