Asalam Alycom :) , 

I've already both of them in my company,

Fortinet is stronger than in UTM and has more features not in SonicWall for example :

1) In Fortigate you've unlimited no. of IPsec and SSL VPN users but in SonicWall you've only2 SSL VPN users and IPsec . 

2) Traffic Shaping in Fortigate is an important feature but it isn't in the current SonicWall firmware.

3) Fortinet can be used as a controller for Forti-APs (Access Points) "i.e : there is no need to by an expensive controller for your wifi APs like in Cisco " 

to get good reports in Fortigate you need a FortiAnalyzer Appliance but in SonicWall I think the reports is better .finally I see Fortinet is better in general.
