The biggest advantage of a VPN client is its reliability; I have used FortiClient in mutliple continents, including Asia, Europe and America, and it worked flawless in every location. > > **Cons**: The only downside of forticlient are its User Interface, which is a bit outdated, and the ram memory used, which can be draining even when not using the software. > > It is the best in class software for virtual private network (VPN) needs that allows to truely work from anywhere. ----- ### "Very reliable and stable VPN client" — 5.0/5 > **Vince** | *May 4, 2025* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: I like most about FortiClient is its 'memory' for credentials and its overall stability. > > **Cons**: Occasionally the connection kills the local network access. Not sure why it does that, but in general, is not a show stopper. > > Overall the experience has been great. For frequent access/connectivity it is very seamless and convenient. ----- ### "Great VPN client with lots of security features" — 5.0/5 > **Serge** | *October 17, 2018* | Printing | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: For most Fortigate customers, Forticlient is granted. It is a great VPN client, very stable and with great features (ie. automatic reconnect, AD integration at Fortigate level, …). It also is integrated with the security features (antivirus, firewall, …). I am not sure Forticlient is to be used by non Fortinet customers; but it should bring every IT Manager to look into Fortinet as their firewall solution\! > > **Cons**: Finding updates on their website not always intuitive\! Lacks a bit of central management (or I did not find out how to do it). ----- ### "Reliable secure access, straightforward user experience" — 4.0/5 > **Adam** | *September 28, 2026* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: The connection process is simple, actually automatic in my case. The saved VPN profiles make it quick to access company resources securely. It also brings secure remote access and endpoint protection together within one client, which provides a more consistent experience than relying on several separate tools. > > **Cons**: Connection and authentication error messages could be more descriptive, as they do not always explain whether an issue relates to the network, credentials or configuration. Reconnecting after a device resumes from sleep or changes networks can occasionally require additional steps. > > This sytem is a reliable way to connect securely to our corporate systems when working remotely, as we are a large org with hybrid working model eveyone uses it. Once it has been configured by the IT team, everyday use is straightforward and it generally operates quietly in the background without creating unnecessary work for the user. ----- ### "Provides quick setup for vpn user" — 5.0/5 > **Chinthaka** | *August 1, 2026* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10 > > **Pros**: The client is very easy to work with and has a shallow learning curve. The client connectivity is optimised for secure and reliable connections. User interface is pretty basic and not cluttered. > > **Cons**: Nothing in particular todate, and we use for enterprise vpn connectivity. The setup could use AI built in features fot auto setup which would be a nice to see feature in future. > > Provides great stability when used with varying home broadband connections and supports to implement a zero truat strategy ----- Page: 1 / 13\ Next: [Next page](https://www.capterra.ca/software/151916/forticlient?page=2) ## Links - [View on Capterra](https://www.capterra.ca/software/151916/forticlient) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | de-AT | | | de-CH | | | en | | | en-AE | | | en-AU | | | en-CA | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-IL | | | en-IN | | | en-NZ | | | en-SG | | | en-ZA | | | es | | | es-AR | | | es-CL | | | es-CO | | | es-CR | | | es-DO | | | es-EC | | | es-MX | | | es-PA | | | es-PE | | | fr | | | fr-BE | | | fr-CA | | | fr-LU | | | it | | | nl | | | nl-BE | | | pt | | | pt-PT | | ----- ## Structured Data
