Overall Satisfaction with WatchGuard Network Security

Real time network scanning and new application monitoring are the keys for our use of WatchGuard. It is critical in daily use to avoid security threats. These features have saved out network from multiple threats many times over the years. I have seen the interface develop into a very user friendly GUI and have used the interface to take advantage of the in-depth features within WatchGuard.
  • New application verification prior to installation
  • Real-time monitoring of security threats
  • Full control of remote/mobile devices accessing the network
  • Setting up initial profiles for groups
  • Keeping our network free from intrusions.
  • Locking down unapproved software installations
We work with Esecurity Solutions and have been very happy with their response and capabilities.
It is imperative to have a single source for information if and when issues arise. Being able to see the entire security layout in one place gives you the ability to make decisions quickly when time matters.
WatchGuard has given me the peace of mind that the system is working all day, every day. I have a comfort level that I never had before.
  • Bitdefender Network Traffic Security Analytics (discontinued)
No comparison. This is a much lighter system that never bogs down the network.
