What is our primary use case?
What is most valuable?
The reporting features, which offer customization, real-time insights, and compliance support, are particularly noteworthy aspects.
What needs improvement?
It would be beneficial to enhance the streamlining of the generation of automated reports related to compliance, such as PCI DSS or HIPAA, based on the logs collected. Automated reports focusing on compliance issues would provide a clearer understanding of potential gaps and the need for remediation. This feature would significantly simplify the process of identifying and addressing areas that require attention.

Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?
The majority of our network infrastructure is based on Fortinet, with a single device each on Palo Alto and Cisco.
How was the initial setup?
The initial setup was fairly easy. When approaching it for the first time, there might be some minor complexities. However, as you gain experience, the process becomes quite straightforward to manage.
What about the implementation team?
The setup typically takes a maximum of three to four hours, depending on the scenario. If it's hardware, there usually aren't any issues. For software installations, you need to consider server specifications, and the process involves loading the license, which may take about three to four hours for activation. For maintenance, we have a team of five members responsible for overseeing the entire network, which includes managing the Fortinet licenses.
What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?
The pricing model is subscription-based. It involves payment for both the license and ongoing support. I would rate it seven out of ten.
What other advice do I have?
It serves as an excellent tool, especially for addressing compliance requirements. Analyzing traffic logs and monitoring network impressions, both inbound and outbound traffic, are essential needs that this tool effectively fulfills. Implementing it has proven to be highly beneficial. Overall, I would rate it seven out of ten.
