Overall Satisfaction with WatchGuard AuthPoint

Authpoint is easy to set up and configure, very knowledgeable forum to help you set it up. All is managed through the cloud which is ideal for managing multiple companies.
It's a perfect solution for a lot of companies that don't have MFA on their VPNs, which is probably the most critical thing to have it on. Implementing this allows us to make sure our network is more secure from those remote locations.
  • Security
  • Easy Setup
  • Client ease-of-use
  • Would be nice to use another app for the 2fa
  • Cost of licences per user
Due to WatchGuard AuthPoint being cloud-based, it helps with the manageability and scalability of not only our business but also other businesses we provide it to. You can access it from anywhere and don't need to be onsite to configure WatchGuard AuthPoint as long as you have a connection to the domain server.
The ability to have an app that users can easily access helps tremendously. I myself have sent instructions to users on how to install and how to register the app for Watchguard AuthPoint and haven't had users come back to me complaining that it doesn't work. Only thing is that if someone is away the registration may time out.

If someone have a full domain with a file server it can be really beneficial to use AuthPoint as it adds an extra level of security for any company. The push to notifications make it a lot easier on the user side of things too.
