A good firewall for small and medium businesses and retails

  • November 16, 2021
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Higher throughput; Administration and setup are quick and intuitive; simple site-to-site VPN setup.
What do you dislike about the product?
SSL remote client logins are not a forte. Reporting features through dimension data is not very granular. Renewal licensing is not competitive.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Higher throughput of data in comparison to the previous firewall was the driving factor for change. Higher throughput has helped with user adoption of cloud technologies.


    Architecture & Planning

We've used this product successfully for years

  • November 12, 2021
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
We've discovered features that we didn't know we initially had (VPN access) that allowed us to successfully switch to a remote office on the fly with no downtime or extra calls during the pandemic!
What do you dislike about the product?
The website to operate is a little bulky and a little confusing at first for a novice, but once you spend a little time learning how to function in it (with the help of a customer service agent), it's a lot easier to use.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We utilize the antivirus, intrustion protection, and spam blocker services.

We have VPN access! We've kept all of our staff up and running throughout the course of the pandemic, with no down time.

Best solution for less money then the competition

  • November 12, 2021
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Compared to Cisco ASA (FirePower ones) its much more intuitive. There is a process you can follow to finish the job, always.
They are developing new cloud services that are very useful. Web interface is now excellent. Its getting better every day.
What do you dislike about the product?
Support is slow. Should be faster in the age of big security meltdowns.
I also don't like that, Dimension, central monitoring system (on premise one) which looked promissing is not being properly developped. No new versions in a while. Probably they are shifting to a Cloud solution, but this needs to be communicated properly.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Perimeter security is their primary use case. We are also using it as a antispam tool and VPN access node. These things are working properly, although antispam could have more configuration flexibility .
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Its much easier to work with than FirePower ASA.

Watchguard Security

What do you like best about the product?
Interfaces for network management range from cloud to server-based, so this makes it easy to use, and very intuitive.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes the option I might need is hid inside another menu - but this is a case of just learning what is where.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Security of Branch Office connections is no longer an issue, and the cloud deployment option is brilliant; I don't even need to touch the hardware anymore, it is sent straight to site.

Best UTM in Small\Mid Enterprise

  • November 12, 2021
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
We are using T20-T40-M400 to manage our remote offices, and integrated SD-WAN works excellent!
What do you dislike about the product?
It's not an actual L7 Firewall. You can choose from a global list of Apps, but WG Firewall doesn't recognize App from traffic. There isn't a real central console to manage many FWs
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Interconnect many sites and use Client VPN connection to give access to our partners


    Non-Profit Organization Management

WatchGuard makes my life easier...!

  • November 12, 2021
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
WatchGuard understands the market needs. They put many standard features such as Anti-Malware, Geolocation filtering, VPN, IPS, IDP, App-Control, etc., into a single box and simplify the complex rules in their firewalls. They have different levels of products for SME to Large Enterprises at a very reasonable price.
What do you dislike about the product?
It will be perfect if they have a cloud solution with a centralized UI to manage different firewalls from different locations.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Due to the increase of home office needs, their VPN solution really simplified a lot in the overall setup. It is wonderful that I can make it work from ground within a hour.

What do you like best about the product?
The Watchguard Firewall is very stable and easy to configure. Support is fast and clear. On the other hand, there is a lot of material on the internet about the use cases of Watchguard. We recommend it 100%
What do you dislike about the product?
Nothing, really nothing to say.
Please don't force me to put something I don't know.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The resolved issues were about VLANS configuration and software update doubts
