FortiAIOps alternative
Having recently moved from Aruba (WiFi)/Sonicwall (firewall) to Fortinet, I felt totally underwhelmed about the reporting side of Fortinet, especially when it comes to WiFi troubleshooting. Compared to Aruba, simple tasks like checking the events generated by a WiFi client that was connected 12 hours ago feels so clunky, user-unfriendly and heavily log-focused.
After trialling FortiAIOps for a month (the trial was for 60 days, but the integration with the Fortigates broke midway), I thought that it was the closest thing I could get to a more interactive and dashboard-oriented way of display info and stats.
When the final quote came back though, I thought it was extortionate, also considering that I'm not using any of those 'AI' features and what I am using, should've been part of the core product anyway, not something we should be paying separately.
Am I missing something on what Fortigates can do, when it comes to WiFi troubleshooting, statistics and monitoring? Is there something else out there that can do what I want to do, without having to pay the equivalent of a small flat?
