Overall Satisfaction with WatchGuard Network Security

We use it to help protect our clients endpoints. The business problems that the product addresses are security and compliance and we resell it for firewall protection or FWaaS in an Azure environment. WatchGuard Network Security is an essential tool to make sure our clients feel safe and secure, which helps their businesses run more efficiently.

Pros

  • Firewall
  • FwaaS
  • Advanced Security Services

Cons

  • Lower prices
  • Quicker services
  • More clarity
  • Helped with security
  • Easy to de recurring support
  • Instilled trust in users
For WatchGuard Network Security purchase, I worked with TD Synnex as the vendor/distributor. I was happy with the service provided since they gave me a quote in a decent amount of time. Most importantly, the pricing made sense based on the margin and list pricing. TD Synnex is easy to work with and is our preferred partner for WatchGuard.
The value I noticed from the unified security platform was the easiness and convenience of having everything done from one place. This makes things so much quicker and more seamless, and allows more time for business to function efficiently. The unified security platform is definitely the preferred option when it comes to managing security.
The impact that utilizing WatchGuard Cloud products together had on my organization is immeasurable. It allows for our clients to have confidence and trust that their endpoints are properly secured. The Cloud system allows for efficient and seamless security that can be done remotely, which is quicker and more convenient.
  • SonicWall Web Application Firewall
WatchGuard Network Security stacks up very well against them and is the preferred option due to a variety of factors. First, you have the pricing and availability to work with our preferred vendors like TD Synnex. Then, we have the ease of use that makes the product simple to implement for our clients. Finally, we trust WatchGuard to help us answer any questions we have.
