It helps keep all our work systems secure. We work from home on our personal computers, this helps keep our personal equipment secure and safe. It connects quickly and easily and I've never had it glitch or cause issues. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Our company uses the discounted or free version of the software which doesn't include technical support from the VPN developer, so if we do have issues we can't get help from FortiClient for them. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Forticlient features a comprehensive endpoint solution that caters to the functions of EDR and provides zero-trust network technologies. Most of the users in our organization use the VPN feature in the software to access the local network. In addition, Forticlient provides web filtering , advance threat protection and policy enforcement according to the organization's needs and compliances. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Once the license expires it stops all the functions in the software, even the VPN service is a free license once the forticlient license expires users will not be able to use the free licenses which are provided with the software. Instead, a separate software should be integrated into the user's machine to access the free services such as VPN. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The application adds an additional login for remote access to the PC in which it is installed which should be optional. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.


I heard deployment of the VPN client is always challenging, but this is not true in the case of FortiClient. Because deployment is fully automatic, easy, and quick, we deployed this on different operating systems also like windows, Linux, Ubuntu, and Mac. FortiClient is also available for mobiles and iPad/tablets. Irrespective of the platform, I never face any problem or any hiccup. FortiClient is the most secure and reliable platform in the market. It also prevents threats from different sources like a USB drive or email threat. VPN login is rapid, which adds more excellent value because, during this pandemic, all IT industries working from home accessed the company's private network.

I would say enhancement rather than dislike. Sometimes while login, it gets username and password from cache or registry which creates a problem if your domain password is changed. So there should be an option to clear the cache on the front-end. Otherwise, there is no drawback I have seen. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
