Overall Satisfaction with WatchGuard Network Security
I am using WatchGuard as the firewall to my network. It also manages my VPN. It has made it easy for my users to remote in.
- Security
- Spam Blocking
- Ease of setup
- Extended support for older boxes
- I hate having to upgrade every few years
- Local support
- It has prevented intrusions.
- It helps prevent viruses from getting in my network.
- I can setup multiple networks so my guest can access the Internet, but not see my physical network.
I have purchased through PCM. I usually get help from WatchGuard on what product is best for me.
It has simplified it, however it has also driven up the cost. I do wish that all the add-ons they provide were a little cheaper.
I have been approached by Fortinet and will be reviewing the 2 products at my renewal time. They installed a monitor on my network to scan for weaknesses in my network. Nothing notable was found.
