Overall Satisfaction with WatchGuard Network Security

We use WatchGuard Network Security/devices at both our main and regional offices as a Firewall, Site to site, and use VPN services. These are the first physical lines of defense at our network perimeter, and Watchguard Network Security is at the heart of it.
  • IPS
  • Monitoring
  • Filtering
  • GUI needs modernisation and better, cleaner layout.
  • Dashboard needs an overhaul compared to other products on the market.
  • Great ROI.
  • With alerts set, it has been a case of set and forget, total confidence in the product.
Take time, as with all similar products, to plan first, making install and configuration much easier.
Having everything in one makes rollout and maintenance much more simple.

Works very well as a firewall, and is robust, as proved when we had Pen Testing against our network, however lack of a good modern dashboard is a letdown.
