What do you like best about FortiClient?

It helps to work with secure data via VPN and is easy to use and more reliable than the previous software I used. There is no need for tricky log-ins and lengthy processes to connect to VPN. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about FortiClient?

Drops- off quickly, whenever the internet has a little break-down or interruption, also slows down the PC, many doctors refuse to use it due to this. Quite often, it needs several attempts to try logging in, and also, two different windows pop up when connecting, and both need to be approved. It would be easier to click on the window to yes, and then it took me to the next page of the authentification. Unfortunately, it does not warn users when dropps off, so often I only realise when my other softwares that require VPN stop working. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering FortiClient:

Make sure you have a strong PC and internet connection as it requires both. Also, when specific platforms stop working, check Forticlient as it tends to drop off with no notification. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is FortiClient solving and how is that benefiting you?

It helps our healthcare company to manage our secure data easily and safely. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
