Performance of FortiClient Across Market Features
FortiClient Likes & Dislikes
FortiClient operates without the need for additional servers or gateways, reducing overhead and simplifying administration compared to alternative solutions. Its integration with FortiClient EMS enables centralised endpoint management, providing streamlined control over clients, vulnerability monitoring, and software update deployment. Furthermore, the built-in antivirus, web filtering, firewall and ZTNA capabilities consolidate functions that would typically require multiple software products, offering an opportunity to further simplify endpoint and system management. After transitioning from another well-known SSL VPN provider to Fortinet's FortiClient, we experienced a substantial decrease in user-reported issues and a significant reduction in IT support calls related to remote access. We were also able to reduce the cost of the solution.
integration with other fortinet products
I value its reliability, the strong security features, and the seamless integration with our existing infrastructure. The product is stable, easy to manage and provides the protection we expect.
The solution can be complicated to setup. Whilst the GUI is easy to follow, you often have to resort to using cli commands that are not well documented or known. Some users have occasional connectivity issues with FortiClient having disconnects. Some users experience a significant degradation in performance when connected to FortiClient VPN. Whilst the above are problematic, the vast majority of users do not have any issues and are happy with it.
Poor connectivity. very difficult to understand the errors code also.
Some areas could be improved, such as the user interface, which can feel a bit unintuitive in some areas. Updates occasionally require more attention to matrix compatibility. The possibility to integrate with two factor autentication with MS auth is not easy
