Overall Satisfaction with WatchGuard Network Security

WatchGuard firewall appliance
mostly using it as a backup network security device because we have other brand appliances which have centrailized portal to manage devices and faster response UI

Pros

  • Work as it intended
  • fail safe
  • simple setup

Cons

  • Faster UI
  • Centrailized manage with older devices
  • automate task support
  • just the UI response being slow
  • need access to LAN to manage the firewall so slower response to accident
  • it acts well as a temporary solution in our use cases
i imagine it can reduce time that i access or read the device status so i can deal with the network issue or threats faster then before
maybe more flexibility to deploy the devices as well
they implemented AI features to their services and devices, but they lack of options to act as a backup appliance that have less complicated functions and setup progress
so WatchGuard Network Security have these as advantages
