Overall Satisfaction with WatchGuard AuthPoint

We use AuthPoint as a value add to our clients and prospects. It is positioned as an added layer of security.
  • The QR code feature can only be decrypted specifically by the AuthPoint app, making it a high security authentication option.
  • Push notification allows users to ensure that no one is accessing their accounts or files other than them due to the unique code.
  • OTP allows for optimal password security.
  • I believe it is a top-notch option in the MFA space.
  • It plays as a nice value add to prospects who may object on integrating WatchGuard into their business functions.
Duo had a pitfall in the verification code in that it never expired. The same code could have been used a week later. This makes it a security risk.
I have not run into any issues where i needed WG support.
