The pricing varies depending on factors such as requirements and the management. While it may not be the cheapest option, it's generally reasonable for what it offers. Ultimately, the cost depends on the deal and the level of service required.

FortiGuard is a little easy to manage.
What other advice do I have?
The functionality of Skyhigh Security is comprehensive, but it may be complex for our customers. The technical team can navigate it, ordinary users may find it daunting without extensive research. They may require assistance from MSP for effective management. The portal should be designed to be user-friendly, ensuring ease of understanding for the IT team or any other relevant department.
The DLP component ensures compliance with HIPAA and PI regulations. They maintain a static portal to track other compliance requirements they're adhering to.
I recommend the solution. However, they'll need well-trained professionals to manage it effectively. If you have another VPN and connect it to this network, it may cause some issues and require constant troubleshooting. This could potentially block agents, so it's important to carefully configure the settings from the outset. Fine-tuning is necessary, so it's crucial to dedicate time and effort to the project.
Overall, I rate the solution an eight out of ten.
