Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • Simple to use. Works silently in the background. Reconnects automatically in case of network disruption.
  • We use this for VPN at my work to access certain environments. It is very secure and so far I'm not aware of any hackers gaining access to our critical systems.
  • I love being able to share my screen for troubleshooting or being able to share with others. It helps us all be on the same page.
  • -Easy to use VPN software -Very secure through using authentication software VIP access on mobile -Works reliable in the background
  • The company I used to work for, a very large company with thousands of employees around the world, had us use Cisco AnyConnect to connect to our enterprise networks whenever we were working from home or on a business trip. Our laptops would come pre-installed with the software and it seemed to integrate with the enterprise login system that we used too.

Cons

  • Errors should be more self - explanatory. Support could be faster. Connection time should be more than 12 hours (may be my organization specific policy).
  • It is a little more complicated to use for new users but with a few tries they seem to pick it up well.
  • I have yet to run into any cons. During covid shut down this was the best life line.
  • -Configuration can lead to VPN becoming a internet speed bottleneck -Load balancing needs improvements
  • Sometimes I'd have to log out / disconnect and reconnect again, and there were a few days once in a while when it just wouldn't work for a half hour or so at a time.

Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • Easy to use Add profiles and connect with convenience Doubles as a remote connection tool Configuration can be saved Frequent updates
  • FortiClient offers very effective protection for threats and vulnerability. It also offers real-time analytics and status. From the usage point of view, it's a very intuitive platform. VPN service is also included.
  • Lightweight application. Easy configuration. Always up mode allows quick automatic re-connection in case of network issues. Available on Linux as well.

Cons

  • No mobile app ( that i am aware of ) and the UI of the desktop app is quite old.
  • It's a great endpoint security tool for any business.
  • If you have multiple connections, credentials can be saved for only one.
