Fortinet or paloalto Next Gen Firewalls

Greetings Group, Have any of you ever dealt with Fortinet or paloalto Next Gen Firewalls and their accessibility? I am looking to purchase 2 of them to secure our networks and replace our existing OpenVPN solution. Thanks, Billy L. Irwin Systems Administrator Elauwit Networks

Billy, I will give you my experience with firewalls. 1: all fortinet firewalls I have used have a CLI interface. That is what I use. The GUI is marginally accessible. that is to say, I can do some things in it, but the important things I do at the CLI. You do not need the GUI to operate these units. I have not used a palo firewall, but It also has a CLI. You also could look at PFSense. It is configured through a browser, and it is entirely accessible. It supports openVPN as well as IPSSEC.
