Who Should Use FortiGate Cloud on the FortiGate 200G?
FortiGate Cloud is ideal for mid-market IT teams managing the FortiGate 200G as a perimeter or branch firewall who want enterprise-grade log analysis and management without the cost of a dedicated FortiAnalyzer appliance. It is especially valuable for distributed deployments where out-of-band cloud access simplifies remote management and compliance audits. Organizations subject to PCI-DSS, SOC 2, or PIPEDA log retention requirements are well served by the 1-Year log retention this subscription provides.
What is the difference between FortiGate Cloud and FortiAnalyzer?
FortiGate Cloud is a cloud-hosted, per-device subscription that provides management and log retention without on-premises hardware. FortiAnalyzer is a dedicated appliance or VM that aggregates logs across many FortiGate devices with deeper SIEM correlation and compliance reporting. FortiGate Cloud suits single-site or smaller multi-site deployments; FortiAnalyzer scales better for large enterprises with many devices requiring centralized analysis.
Does this subscription require any on-premises server?
No. FC-10-FG2HG-131-02-12 is a pure cloud subscription. Management, analytics, and log storage all run on Fortinet’s cloud infrastructure. You access the FortiGate Cloud portal at fortigate.forticloud.com from any browser. No additional hardware or server licensing is required on your network.

Can I upgrade to a multi-year FortiCloud term?
