Thread 106260827

Redpill me on these guys. I like their products but I find it suspect how /g/ never mentions them nor has commented on anything they've made or do.

Is there something I'm missing?

awful

Really, really wide product line.
>some things they do well
>a bunch of things are "me too" and check-the-box products
All of the stuff glues together, sort of, under FortiManager.
They don't sell direct.
And their trainings are thinly-disguised sales events.

t. was a trainer for Fortinet

/g/ does not have jobs

>>106260827 (OP)
they are mainly a B2B company and they make good shit. you don't hear of them here on /g/ because nobody here has a job except for the glowies.

expensive glorified linux box

Join reddit, they have far more ad-bots than 4chan.

spent an hour or so today in a chat with on-site dude wondering why the fuck wont a brand new fortiswitch get recognized and listed at the switch management when plugged into another switch already in the network

it's enterprise gear, no one here buys their shit for their home except a small minority on /hsg/

I like fortinet. My home 'router' is a Fortigate 60f. It slaps ngl, you can do a lot of stuff with it and newer firmware is adding in even better automation tooling support. You can have it hit api endpoints or have things hit api endpoints on the fortinet. Shieeettt i use it as a credential server to redirect authenticated inbound traffic hitting my public IP to my DMZ webpage
