Overall Satisfaction with WatchGuard Network Security
Watchguard is used as one layer of network border security and as a means to connect various internal networks through VPN access. It is used not only for ID and IP but also serves as a spam filter, and web access control as well. We also use the Watchguard Dimension Log Server as a means of managing the logs and monitoring security from each of our firewalls.
Pros
- Network Border Security
- Access Control
- Log Management
- Spam Filtering
Cons
- Better support for older devices
- It has successfully protected our client data for years
- It has made it easier to open new branch offices with fast deployment capability
- It has provided crucial information during incident control and forensic research
CDW - We do as much of our IT purchasing as possible through CDW and the service has always been great!
The fact that everything is bundled with Watchguard's simplified packaging and licensing makes everything incredibly simple to set up and maintain. Renewing is as simple as activating the new license and then copying/pasting the new feature key into the firewall's configuration.
- Cisco 2000 Series Connected GRID Routers (CGR 2000) and Fortinet FortiGate
Watchguard has a much more intuitive interface and an easier deployment than other devices I've used. Their pricing model is also better as they always have something in my range that serves my needs, as opposed to constantly trying to push me into higher-priced devices and services that are far overpowered for my purposes.
