User-Friendly Firewall

  • May 08, 2025
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
UI is very friendly and easy to understand. Features are good and easy to find. Logs are easy to read and find for troubleshooting. For someone who is relatively new in the industry, this firewall is very easy to manage.
What do you dislike about the product?
The primary issue i have is with the user VPN MFA can be a little wonky at times. Not sure if it is a knowledge issue or a bug, but sometimes the MFA does not work and unable to authenticate the Web Interface with the users credentials + MFA. Require to reregister certificates then it works. Adding additional codes to MFA does not last very long, hope that in the future there is a way to permanently set codes that dont expire for use cases where client is overseas and unable to authenticate.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Remote access to network resources allows our staff to work from anywhere. IPSec helps with our remote site backups. Policies help to restrict access and tighten security for ease of management.

The real-time alert system also stands out, helping to respond quickly to threats.
