What do you like best about FortiClient?

It does a great job of protecting against software flaws that were previously unknown or undetected, but with vulnerabilities that could lead to serious attacks, in conjunction with the Forti Sandbox. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about FortiClient?

I think the most important deficiency of the product is the lack of EDR (Endpoint Detection and Response) functionality. I hope this feature will come to FortiClient in the near future. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

If you want your company to be safe and ready for external threats, I think FortiClient is the right choice. It not only blocks malware and other threads, but also helps fix endpoint vulnerabilities. It is extremely easy to apply and use. Since it has a user-friendly interface, everyone can easily use it. You can also establish a secure and fast VPN connection to your corporate network using the VPN feature integrated with your firewall. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about FortiClient?

My favorite aspect of the product is that it reacts at the time of notification and allows us to prevent any attack. It gave us a really high level of confidence that all threats were detected. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about FortiClient?

It must be completely uninstalled before the new version can be installed. Because updating the client is often misleading. I think this is a situation that needs to be fixed. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

We have been running this solution of Forti company at approximately 50 workstations for a long time and we did not encounter any problems. It prevents all malware and does not slow down your computer at all, even with a full scan. Full integration with other Fortinet products allows us to get a complete overview of our environment, starting from endpoints and ending with firewalls. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about FortiClient?

It connects me to my corporate VPN when I need it to. Not much more to say about it. Installation was easy. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about FortiClient?

When connected to a SonicWall hardware VPN the Forticlient software disrupts my connection to the SonicWall, so I have to use another software VPN to connect to the SonicWall on top of the Forticlient. Not sure if this is a configuration issue between two different providers, but it's definitely an issue. Also the software runs at startup whether I want it or not, with no option to disable it from Task Manager's Startup tab, so I'm not sure how to prevent it Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

What do you like best about FortiClient?

What I like the most about having FortiClient is that I can work remotely and quickly and safely access the servers, the connection is secure and provides protection to the servers against external attacks, each authorized personnel of the company has access to a user with which you can enter the secure server, since we implemented this tool, external attacks have been reduced considerably and internal communication manages to flow more quickly since it is easier to upload information to the server from anywhere with access to the network. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about FortiClient?

The flaw that FortiClient sometimes presents is that the connection tends to drop unexpectedly, sometimes the connection is re-established quickly and sometimes it takes some time, these drops cause delays in the access of external personnel to the platform, especially external agents that require access to provide support and customer care services from the different points of sale. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

The first platform that I open to start my daily work is FortiClient, which is the one that allows me remote access to our main server, from which I carry out my daily tasks, access to the platform is fast and secure and prevents unauthorized personnel enter our private servers, FortiClient access also allows me to access from my personal computer from the comfort of my home, it is an easy platform to install in mobile applications and also in fixed ports.

What do you like best about FortiClient?

FortiClient is a very good application that allows us to access our internal databases remotely and securely from external terminals, access to the platform is very simple and allows access to customer data and information from fixed or mobile terminals , this makes it possible to carry out different customer service procedures and commercial processes, the degree of security is good and prevents unauthorized personnel from accessing confidential information. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about FortiClient?

The stability of the platform, especially at the level of mobile phones, is something that must be improved, because sometimes it disconnects for no apparent reason and it takes a long time to reestablish connection, this causes delays in the completion of processes and the normal flow of communication, although it is true that remote debugging sometimes works, it must be done several times a day as it does not offer a stable connection. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

We have a large number of external agents who are responsible for carrying out different tasks, from commercial management to maintenance and installation of networks, it was necessary and important that our collaborators had access to user information in order to offer a service faster and more efficient, but we did not have a secure platform that allowed access to our servers, since for this it was necessary to connect from a terminal in our main offices, with FortiClient we managed to solve this problem.
