Overall Satisfaction with WatchGuard Network Security
We use WatchGuard Total Security Suite among our Cybersecurity solutions for ourselves and our clients. We believe that WatchGuard provides the best protection against ransomware and other malware due to its multi-layered and best-in-breed approach to cybersecurity. WatchGuard's involvement with companies like Forcepoint among other vendors, and services such as DNS watches that won't allow access to sites that have not been approved such as new sites makes WatchGuard a powerful platform. Also, endpoint protection is a great feature. One of the best features is unlimited logging through their Dimension product which comes as part of the subscription at no extra cost. It is a well-known fact that unless your malware is a ransomware variant. most other malware can be present on a network exfiltrating data without being detected for weeks or even months. Having logging that goes back to these periods of time can allow to find out when the malware first started.

We are a WatchGuard partner.
As a single appliance with a single license covering threat protection, reporting, and management capabilities. there are no expensive add-ons to purchase and integrate into the system. A client may decide to not purchase an add-on to save money e.g. a separate and expensive reporting module. This would compromise the total security posture of an ICT system.
We appreciate the WatchGuard Network Security approach to multilevel security with a layered stack. We believe that using multiple vendors' products does not lock WatchGuard into a single mindset when providing security. Over the years WatchGuard has changed some of its constituent vendors to provide better protection at the time. WatchGuard supplies a full stack security offering that is speedy in operation at any pricepoint compared to its competitors.
