Overall Satisfaction with WatchGuard Network Security

Hi, We are using a Watchguard Firewall device for the last 5 years. We did use Watchguard M400 and now we have upgraded our device to Watchguard M470 with an additional 8 Port network Module.
  • Firewall protection
  • Visibility and reporting
  • Management platform with single pane of glass
  • Migration from premises management to cloud management is painful
  • The only thing is when our subscription expired, the function for security stopped working.
  • Watchguard Firewall Total Security is one of best firewall device which we have used.
  • It is little bit costly than compare the others firewalls
We have already purchased WatchGuard Firebox M470 with 3-yr Total Security
Suite, Part WGM47673 device.
A single license is the best concept, it will be easy to activate the device.

Excellent, the firewall is very good, We have used the M400 device for 4 years, now we have upgraded to M470. It's very easy to configure, we can manage
our network with various policies for blocking websites using grouping
which has been provided by WatchGuard, automatic updates from WatchGuard
which has made a list of websites that have the potential for malware
and fake websites, WatchGuard also protects users from potential
cybercrimes such as fraud from websites that have been infiltrated by
malware. Apart from this, WatchGuard also makes it easier for
administrators to analyze websites that are accessed by users.
