Great firewall and UTM solution for mid-market companies
What do you like best about the product?
WatchGuard offers multiple GUI based interfaces that make set-up, configuration, maintenance and monitoring much more accessible for an IT resource who is not solely focused on the network. We support about 250 users with a 5 person IT department so we need tools that are highly functional but easy to use.
What do you dislike about the product?
Some of the video documentation on YouTube is out of date. I rely on that resource to guide me through new activities as opposed to creating a case and waiting for a call back.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
WatchGuard's Total Security Suite offers multiple layers of protection via a single vendor.

Consistently Leading Firewall Vendor - Watchguard
What do you like best about the product?
Logical setup, making it easy to setup.
But with a depth of features and security that makes it a leader.
Flexability allowing it to do any task needed.
And the Branch Office VPN I have been able to connect to firewall and vpn devices of many other vendors due to it's flexibility.
Reliable and easy to troubleshoot, but also has 24/7 support from watchguard helpdesk, meaning they are always there to help, even at 2am in the morning.
The support team will do this via email or on the phone, according to what you request.
The firewall has some of the most flexible proxy filters as well as packet filters.
So if you want HTTP inspection of port 8192 for a custom interface, it can do that for you. or any other proxy, or deep layer inspection.
It is the product I recommend to clients and other colleagues without hesitation.
I have been working with leading firewalls for 25 years, and have seen the watchguard evolve from it's early days, through to today.

What do you dislike about the product?
For the small desktop appliances, you have to choose between 2.4 Ghz and 5 Ghz. as it will only do one, with the built in WiFi. But Watchguards WiFI Appliances are a better option.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Having a firewall that I have been able to adapt to many different network requirements, for clients from vastly different business types and needs. The watchguard has been able to adapt to their needs and has not failed to meet expectations yet.
It has meant that as a network consultant, working in many different environments, that it has always been a good solution to all networks

Choose watchguard network security products.
Rock-solid security with straight-forward management.
What do you like best about the product?
We particularly like WatchGuard's security suite subscription (competitively-priced), as it affords us a powerful security solution which helps us ensure our network's security, while being able to easily generate and fine-tune policies to our liking. Additionally, WatchGuard's support is amazing.
What do you dislike about the product?
We haven't really come across any issues with our WatchGuard appliances or software. We would like for third-party MFA to be a lot more straightforward to implement, as simple as their own MFA solution is.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We've used WatchGuard's new line of Firebox M-series appliances and subscriptions to build hassle-free site-to-site tunnels, implement IPSec to block malicious traffic, implement solid VPN policies for remote users' office phones and other devices. In particular, now with remote-working being such a necessity, we would not be able to provide the remote capabilities our WFH users currently have if it weren't for our WatchGuard appliances and subscriptions.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I recommend that you try WatchGuard's appliance trial that they offer. Their solutions are as powerful as Cisco's ASA line, but costs much less to maintain and is also much friendlier in terms of changes. Once you've test-driven their services and devices, you'll see that it's a powerful alternative.
Solid, feature rich and easy to implement and manage
What do you like best about the product?
I appreciate how simple the Watchguard tools are to implement and manage. Allowing configuration from the web as well as from their application software, makes it easy to maintain and alter the system wherever you are. The automatic updates work well and upgrades have always been smooth.
What do you dislike about the product?
Some of the third party integrations can be cumbersome to get setup, but once setup they do operate near flawlessly.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
WatchGuard Network Security helps us to protect our networks with their various services as well as gives us great firewall flexibility. With built in options for VPN access from both end users and BOVPN connections, it really allows us a big picture view of everything going on.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Just take a look if you haven't already. They provide excellent hardware, simple software solutions, and are always on top of emerging threats. They also have great social media updates on current trends and threat information.
