    If you already have Webroot AV, it makes sense to continue with the same vendor. It's pretty cheap compared to some solutions, so it might be the case that it's this or nothing, in which case this is a no brainer. If you are an MSP, this is an easy product to sell, and requires very little maintenance. you do need to monitor it but it runs itself most of the time. If you are a customer with >50 users, you should really be looking for a product that is a bit higher up the food chain

    The product as well as the admin panel is getting richer. Would love port-level access control as well as some more analytics in the admin panel. From what I hear, the team is actively working on it

    • Easy access management for cloud resources, better security than VPN or IP allow lists
    • 2FA via Google Login or OKTA
    • Easy to onboard external team members (contractors, partners, clients, etc)
    • Was easily approved by my partner security teams to use alongside their VPN client with no conflicts.
    • Zero-trust security is a must-have feature these days!
    • You pay for User, not Client or Resources--easy to roll out to all devices used by your users.
    • No more hassle of maintaining IP allow lists for WFH/remote teams
