What differentiates FortiClient from other similar products?

Being an IT analyst i have to manage a lot of stuff and with this tool things had become quite handy as It allows users, especially during Covid, to figure remotely instead of needing to be in the office to use the company Wifi. It conjointly does precisely what’s required: every company wants VPN security, especially because online attacks are prevalent now more than ever. This defends against cyber hacks and attacks as suggested, and each company must protect itself online.

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

It’s an excellent product that helps to attach to any VPN network and secure through login into the system and ensure solely those VPN choices shown to the user that has their accessibility and permissions. It conjointly helps to examine compliances to make sure endpoint checks are there for every VPN connection. It can successfully verify users on the go and lift any threats with the IT team of the organization. It’s fast to deploy and be simply installed in a short time on any system or OS.

What do you dislike most about this product?

It can sometimes hang because of incorrect passwords that can be long for users who, by chance, entered incorrect details. It conjointly doesn’t perform once there’s system downtime due to maintenance. It can cause users not to access VPN or network services and impact business.

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

Even a novice person can be ready to set up their VPN connection with no issues. A straightforward yet powerful tool to connect servers from a remote location. Another plus point is it doesn’t matter which web speed you’re at, once you are connected, it’s done.
