Use Cases and Deployment Scope

Upgraded my network security by replacing my old SonicWall firewall with a WatchGuard firebox. So much easier to manage and confidence is much higher. The vpn is worlds better. The Sonicwall would drop vpn connections constantly, have not had any of those issues since moving to the WatchGuard.

Pros and Cons

The interface is easy to navigate.
The mobile VPN is easy to config and very stable.
Content filtering is very reliable.

Add chat support option.

Return on Investment

Feels redundant but stable vpn connection

WatchGuard Partner

Brian W. is great. He is very helpful and knowledgeable. I have nothing but respect for him and have no interest in looking elsewhere when I need assistance.

WatchGuard Unified Security Platform

I only have the one Firebox so not something I've noticed. I'm sure if I had multiple devices/products I would find it very helpful.

WatchGuard Cloud

I have have WatchGuard Cloud.

Likelihood to Recommend

I can't describe any scenarios where it would be less appropriate as I have only used it in one company, and it is very appropriate. Our previous Sonicwall had issues with dropping vpn connections as well as not failing over to backup isp. The WatchGuard has fixed both of those issues.
