Overall Satisfaction with WatchGuard AuthPoint

We integrated the product with our Active Directory for a Single Sign-on environment. The integration was seamless! We use if for out of office users to connect to our internal network via VPN. This provides us a great level of security. And paired with the AuthPoint app. We have enable Multifactor Authentication. Providing peace of mind.
  • VPN
  • Single Sign on
  • MFA
  • Maybe some instruction on how to Change the VPN password once it changes in Active Directory
  • Our end uses found this product very easy to use. Using one overview session, I have not had to follow up with users to access the product.
  • Once deployed, other users in our environment heard about the ease of use. We then had a 25% increase in requests for the product.
  • This product has added to the overall satisfaction of users having to work offsite, attend conferences and other travel while still being able to stay connected to their work product.
Because we are using Sign Sign-On, the amount of password reset request has almost stopped completely. Because the passwords are integrated with our Active Directory, the corporate password complexity, Password Change and Password length policies are all enforced as default.
We were with an Open Source VPN solution prior to using AuthPoint, so the price was much higher. However, the cost is worth the peace of mind it brings. I've been working with WatchGuard products for 15 years and have come to trust their offerings.
I was unaware of this, I will research it.
We have only had this in place for a couple of months, so we have not had any issues.
The nature of OpenVPN is that the passwords are stored on the firewall and are static. With Single Sign-On, the passwords change on schedule and complexity, length and time are set by Active Directory policy
