FortiNet you gotta get your shit together.
I have been a huge fan since the beginning of time, coming from Cisco, Checkpoint, then Palo, but you always proposed an incredible product, with very simple all inclusive licensing for such an aggressive price. You would always be up there with the big boys that would cost three times for half the throughput but always be amongst the best on any Gartner or third party independent tests. 5.6.x was such a masterpiece (yea well not exactly but...), always working, minor bugs here and there, devices been running for 2 years straight without a single problem.
But no, let's fuck it all up to pursue this SD-WAN nonsense. Couldn't you just put in the brochure, add a menu to make the CIOs happy and leave the rest of it alone? Couldn't you just stop forcing people on 6.x.x? What about NOT release 6.x.x. at all?
It is such a pile of garbage I am almost threw one out of the window. If it was painted grey I would confuse it for goddam Cisco ASA . Stuff that always worked flawlessly now are completely fucked. HA? randomly kicks in. DHCP? Fuck I wont work on port 1, only on port 2 and on Tuesdays! GUI? Why stress you with all those long page full of logs that make no sense, a blank page is much better! We are very concerned about you burning out so if you click or add too many rules too quickly, we will make you slow down and freeze the fuck out of the GUI so you go get a coffee! Let's force you on using that useless FortiCloud with the excuse of not adding the internal harddrive anymore (even if you buy the harddrive you cant use it, that was such a Cisco move) and then throwing "Forticloud does not support the latest version of FortiOS, sorry!" IS this some kind of joke?
Rant over. Go back to work.
