Good firewall, good service, nothing to envy to more expensive solutions.

What do you like best about the product?
Features, stability, customer support, and all of this for the best cost possible with outstanding throughput cost relation compared with its competitors.
What do you dislike about the product?
I can't think of something I don't like from WatchGuard. I'm pleased with the solution.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are securing all of our VLANs. Internet surfing with DNS security. UTM. Antimalware. Integrated with AD. Services publishing. SSL VPN for providers and employees. SDWAN. Multifactor Authentication, etc.
The benefit is that with much less investment than other brands, we are applying a high level of security to our network, supporting all of our traffic, internal and external.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Don't think about brands; all of them are doing security. Compare throughput and cost, try Watchguard, then decide.

I like that I can access all our products from one dashboard.

Understandable support...

  • September 28, 2021
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
With current business climate service providers are always looking for revenue growth and cost reductions. Some like Watchguard recognize that without the existing customer every month starts at zero(0). When I call for support, I don't need another obstacle to the solution. I am not only assured that I will connect with a good communicator (clearly spoken and understandable in my language) but that the rep I'm talking with actually listens and understands their product enough to know of a solution.
What do you dislike about the product?
I would prefer to have more video demos of install/configurations, but with the support that is available that is a minor inconvenience.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We have seen improvements in network performance with directly addressing prioritized traffic through policy based rules.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Intuitive for the most part once logged in. Very important to understand the differing logins and which is applicable to what (I had problems and still struggle with this from time to time)

Very powerful, yet simple administration router/firewalls

  • September 28, 2021
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
It is a very intuitive GUI interface and simple to learn. Very easy to make changes.
What do you dislike about the product?
Much easier than most counterparts, so it makes the others challenging to use after using WatchGuard for so long.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We switched to using WatchGuard in all our branches several years back. It has made centralization of our infrastructure immensly quicker and easier.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I highly recommend WatchGuard as your infrastructure backbone. I have been pleased with them for a decade now.

Great Security! Great Support!

  • September 28, 2021
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
It was an easy firewall for a fairly new IT Manager to figure out and configure from scratch. They have great support for anything I could not figure out.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes can be difficult to pinpoint why it might be blocking something it shouldn't be.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
General network firewall security for a small to medium business, with only one IT person to manage it.
