Our verdict
If your office or college runs a FortiGate firewall, this is the free client IT will ask you to install. FortiClient VPN connects to the organisation's FortiGate over SSL VPN or IPsec, with FortiToken two-factor and client-certificate support. It is not a consumer VPN service: it needs a gateway address and login from your organisation. The Windows download from Fortinet is a small online installer that fetches the rest. On the App Store, pick 'FortiClient VPN', not the full 'FortiClient' Fabric Agent.

FAQ
Is FortiClient VPN free?
Yes. The VPN-only client is free from Fortinet's download page and the app stores. Fortinet's paid Enterprise tiers add support, central management and zero-trust features.
Can I use FortiClient VPN as a normal VPN for browsing?
No. It only connects to a FortiGate gateway that an organisation runs. For a consumer VPN service, look at a VPN provider's own app instead.
