We use WatchGuard Firebox for Firewall Services and WG Antivirus for end point protection.
  • Firewall provides great protection and visibility on our network
  • Protects our network from external threats as well internal users when browsing the internet
  • End point protection protects all our clients both on site and off site
  • Real Time Threat detection notification for end point protection.
  • Firewall Report to show internet activity by device or user
  • Improve issues with IKEv2 VPN as there always seems to be problems using this VPN method.
  • Improved confidence in cyber security
  • Threat protection and visibility
  • Assist with asset recording and verification
FutureIT Team from New Zealand have been very helpful though, experience in delays with solutions have been a challenge.
A centralized area to control and manage my security products, services, reporting and licensing making IT Service Management easy.
Easy of management, reporting and licensing
Performed very well, though had similar learning challenges but due to the similarities of services it was not very difficult to learn.
