This centralized management simplifies the configuration and monitoring of network security policies and devices.

Subscription Cost, FortiCloud typically involves subscription-based pricing, and costs can add up over time, especially for organizations with a large number of Fortinet devices. Some organizations may find the ongoing subscription fees to be a disadvantage.

That i must buy another product to add a new site, and it will cost a new annual payment.

Greate Centralized Management Platform on the Fortinet Cloud

In the case of do not have a FortiGate Cloud Subscription, we can also use the "log retention" feature (FortiGate Cloud received and stored log of Fortigate for 7 days without any fee).

Centralized Log Retention for FortiGate at Multiple Sites.
Effective and easy to set up
Provides as good if not better coverage as our on premise NGFW. Easy to deploy and set up.
Unique Master-Slave sync in HA mode as well as API calls to the AWS infrastructure which means we don't need to run a lambda to supervise the state of the master and change the routing. The API calls take care of this.
Good
Nice and tried with TRANSIT VPC, Good performance. Only Issues with Remote VPN part. CLI part is good, will get more options there.
Great firewall, On-Demand not available for GovCloud ?!
These are great firewalls, they work great for VPC Transit designs. Unavailable for Gov-Cloud as an On-Demand as of August 2018
