Overall Satisfaction with WatchGuard Network Security

We use it to secure, protect and manage our network. Having used other top vendors, Watchguard is still my favorite.
  • Security
  • AV
  • IDS
  • The interface is a bit dated
  • Positive impact, it has helped us stay secure and avoid any breaches
I worked with the Watchguard sales team, and a third party vendor. Both were amazing to work with.
They offer a great complete package, the only other thing I would recommend that they implement is policy standard enforcement. For example, if you need to be HIPAA compliant, have a "scanner" or "framework" that can check the firewall against the HIPAA standards to ensure that you are HIPAA compliant. That isnt really an issue, since there are a lot of other companies that offer that. Just an idea.
It helps us manage our firewalls, no matter where we are.
