Super firewall with decent user friendliness

  • May 15, 2025
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The firewall is great to operate. An incredible number of features, the best of which is probably the WAF. This also led the decision away from the competition. Additionally, the AD integration and VPN with 2FA are excellent!
What do you dislike about the product?
No compulsion but still a very strong urge to the cloud. Automatic (scheduled) updates, for example, are only possible via the cloud. Reporting functions on the device itself leave much to be desired. Sometimes delivery times are far too long.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
So far, only once had issues with storage space - but the support was quite quick to respond.
