Fortinet Wireless LAN offers more bang for your buck
Rating: 8 out of 10
IncentivizedUse Cases and Deployment Scope
We have built a WiFi, all-in-one solution, and created a product for existing and future customers. The all-in-one includes all Fortinet products: Firewall, Switch, and Access Points. This solution, compared to Meraki's all in one solution, is at a price-point to which customer like, without having to give up features.
Pros
- Ease of configuration.
- Ease of management.
Cons
- In the web portal, it would be nice if you could create a customer, assign that customer all the devices in the solution, and have a single pane glass to manage them all. Right now you need to access different web links to manage the devices.
- The security feature set could be a bit more sophistication, like an Arista AP which polices the air.
Likelihood to Recommend
The Fortinet solution works in all scenarios due to the choice of access points. It is able to suit any environment. The access points will perform in any indoor or outdoor environment, and Fortinet support is second to none. They will assist you from beginning to end; ensuring your solution is working as it should.
