The support documentation and community forums are also helpful for troubleshooting and learning. Occasional firmware updates require careful scheduling to avoid disruptions, but overall, the product is reliable and performs well in securing network infrastructure. It's a strong solution for both small and large businesses

VPN needs optimization despite user-friendly firewall UI

What do you like best about the product?
The UI and overall experience is pretty straightforward. There are some network features, which are a bit harder to reach, but it hasn't been problematic nor frustrating to use the firewall, but rather the opposite. I haven't encountered any problems that indicate core problems with the way the firewall works.
What do you dislike about the product?
No language changing after loggin in.
No MFA text box for logging in.

It's the main firewall for our company and reliably connects all of our locations together. Its ease of use allows us to impliment the site-to-site solution with ease.
