WatchGuard EPDR Support

ProsCons
Kept well informed

Poor followup
Less knowledgeable
Escalation required
Wasnt aware about premium support
Takes time to "resolve" issues, mostly I dont feel its resolved

Using WatchGuard EPDR

ProsCons
Like to use
Easy to use
Lots to learn
  • Reporting feature
  • PANDA uses too much CPU power and can freeze whole system
Because [Adaptive Defense 360 / WatchGuard EPDR] can block even Panda Notifier or legit programs. I believe there are better products on the market which I'll be happy to evaluate.

WatchGuard EPDR Reliability

Separate Categories can be created per department / site. This is good feature
Available all the time - when its working!
