Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We use it across the organization. Workstations and servers. We like it since it has a single dashboard, where I can monitor and react to threats, etc. We have used Panda/Watchguard for over 20 years and we're glad to see a more comprehensive product with [Adaptive Defense 360 / WatchGuard EPDR]

Pros and Cons

Alerts on malware threats.
Allows device access control for many levels of device (phone, cam, USB, etc).
Web Access control can be controlled and monitored and organized by groups of PC's.

Details on malware alerts. Sometimes the alert is just that one happened, but doesn't name the PC.
Malware threat should specify the source (email, website).

Return on Investment

Central management has improved my personal productivity with threat assessment.
Reports help me outline problem areas to the business owners.

Usability

The dashboard is very clear and useful. We can also allow or exclude endpoint PCs from getting threat alerts (some users want to know, some users just want the threats squashed and to leave them out of the alert).

Central Management

We feel much more aware and on top of security, with the central management dashboards.

Likelihood to Recommend

I would say that it's more suited for organizations 10 and larger. But the central dashboard could be used with any size company I imagine (mine range from 15 to 40 computers/servers).
