What do you like best about FortiClient?

Forticlient is such an easy VPN tool that can be setup and accessed by newbies with 0 technical knowledge. It only requires basic configuration to set it up. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about FortiClient?

The VPN usually times out, not sure though if that is because of the VPN connection where it's configured or the software itself. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering FortiClient:

I hope that there will be no issue at all accessing other sites via mobile. Coz some of the internal sites at work when accessed via mobile isn't loading at all. So I do hope that those little glitches will be fixed as soon as possible. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

The problems I'm always encountering is the token issue wherein it's very late to be received via SMS. We had it setup with Google authenticator to have it fixed but that too is also experiencing an issue. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
