Watchguard is a great Firewall tool, which helps in an excellent way to maintain our network infrastructure with a high level of security, which allows us to design security policies adapted to our business.

Being a perimeter security tool, I think it can offer much more scalability in protecting against intrusions or attacks from other networks.

While I have used Watchguard, it has allowed me to detect improper intrusion intentions to my network in time, which has allowed me to carry out preventive support to avoid irreparable damage to my network.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Among the virtues to recommend Watchguard, one I think is the quality of the support and training service offered by the brand, as well as the use of a friendly and easy-to-use interface.

What do you like best about the product?
1. Easy to configure and easy to managed Firewall Policy,
2. easy to manage clients in determining access rights for their internet connection, on the front panel, there is very complete information about which clients are currently using the largest bandwidth and where to access those clients,
3. There are also top destinations for websites that are widely accessed by clients, making it easier to determine what policies are suitable for each client,
4. Blocking websites, or ports can be easily set, many and clear tutorials if we have diffculty in configuring are also an added value for users,
5. in terms of price, in our opinion the price given is not too high compared to other competitors, but in terms of quality there is no need to doubt it
What do you dislike about the product?
1. all the features meet the standards we need, apart from that, it's just a matter of how we configure the watchguard so that the watchguard can run optimally.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
1. we can determine that every client can access any website, by default watchguard has protected the connection by giving suggestions on what websites are included in the illegal category,
2. In addition, watchguard also protects from viruses, trojans and attacks from outside the network that we have,
3. if we are going to do port forwarding from an external connection or a connection from our internal, on watchguard the configuration is very easy with detailed explanations, for this we don't need a lot of settings and it doesn't take a long time
Recommendations to others considering the product:
nothing, everything is very good

WatchGuard Network Security

  • July 15, 2021
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I like the quality of the equipment. Being able to access the configuration tools by either a web interface for the simple changes, or a program where a configuration can be uploaded, for the more intensive edits or initial configuration.
What do you dislike about the product?
In the web-based interface, save buttons are typically at the end of the page. I wish there was one at the top of the page.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
As an MSP, we utilize WatchGuard Firewalls for our perimeter network security. Since the pandemic, most customers who have made their workforce remote, already had a VPN solution in place. It just needed configuring. The traffic logs from WatchGuard cloud have been beneficial in showing users that are spending a large amount of time on non-related websites. With that information, WebBlocker categories to then prevent those types of websites from being viewed, making the time at work productive time.

Solid solution that keep in step with the times

  • July 14, 2021
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I like the shift that WatchGuard has done over the years, focusing on the web UI. The web UI, in my opinion, is straightforward to work with and easier to adapt and manage. Over the years its has become easiy to make the adjustments to the firewall. Thus making the ability to tighten and secure the network. Managing the VPN and conictivity and troubleshoot issue as they arrise seem to have been easier as than it used to using the application.
What do you dislike about the product?
The technical support dance you have to do to get the help in the matter that I believe is the proper approach to your paying customers.
I believe all firewall companies have this same shortcoming. Over the years, I have figured out how to adapt to this to get the result I need. When I get a tech on the phone, they are all easy to work with and always accommodating.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Using their product, I have been able to manage geo-locational access to my network. Blocking unwanted traffic and controlling the flow of traffic in both directions. Also have used to implement VLANs and subnets all while keeping the ability to properly keep all proper onectivity.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Watchguard is a solid choice when looking for a provider. I have worked with several companies in this space, and I find Watchguard easy to work with, interface with, and implement. I would recommend evaluating this company when looking for a solution in your security.
