"This product needs to have an analysis feature, rather than having the analysis done through the integration of a different product."
"It should be more stable. There should be full integration within Fortinet products themselves as well as with other third-party products. Especially when you're not dealing with SIEM and the correlation of the security box, we want Fortinet to be able to share that information with as many other products as it can."
"They should improve high CPU and memory usage that occurs."
"The pricing could be reduced or include the first year warranty."
