A TRUE GAME CHANGER
Good
Nice and tried with TRANSIT VPC, Good performance. Only Issues with Remote VPN part. CLI part is good, will get more options there.
Easy to set up
I am testing this product at the AWS re:Invent 2017 in Las Vegas. The free trial was pretty easy to set up, and the support was adequate.
Works like the real device
If you are used to the fortigate firewall line there is nothing new here, the interface is the same and works the same way. Good entry level device, easy to setup and works fine.
Easy to launch and test!
I wish we had this sooner but better late than never. I really like the idea of spinning up the fortinet instance on EC2 to test configuration quickly.
It was really easy to set up like any oterh EC2 instance. It loads with the basic SSH, Telent access which is nice and has some useful configuration preloaded
on the initial build. Hoping to have fun with this.
Thanks!
Good but buggy
Fortigate has tons of features and is good but we've had some issues with bugs in some production systems.(mainly IPSEC)
Finally working...
After getting the login information correct, I was able to log in and use the product. Seems to be running well on the virtual platform. We will continue working with this AMI in our development environment until we are comfortable moving this into production.
Best Product for easy on-demand firewall!
We use this product for our e-commerce site and it's ease of use makes it a good fit for anyone looking to easily deploy SAAS.
We may be looking at their hardware offerings in the future.
Only complaint is the interface does take some learning but that comes with any platform.
Overall very good product.
