Overall Satisfaction with WatchGuard Network Security

We utilize Watchguard at our datacenter to protect our internal IT assets. We also utilize Watchguard at client sites as well.
  • Gateway Anti-Virus
  • VPN
  • Customize All Ports
  • Hardware EOL before subscriptions are fullfilled leaving sites vulnerable and requiring additional purchases
  • Price increases exponentially and quickly as you move up the line of products
  • Hardware EOL Before subscriptions are at their end.
We are a partner. We purchase from Tech Data.
One license does all makes it easier to determine what is needed. However, that can sometimes increase the cost for places that do only need one thing.
We prefer Meraki's centralized cloud hosted infrastructure. This makes it much more convenient for management. It is also easier for junior techs to learn.
I think Watchguard is adequate for the right person.
