Easy, Simple and Secure
What do you like best about the product?
In all the Network Security products I've tested and used, this is the only product (so far) that you can easily setup and configure without deplying yet in production environment. It also gives good performance and faster throughput even all security engines are turned on. Best of all, in comes with reporting and visibility using dimension without incurring any cost.
What do you dislike about the product?
Subscription renewal is a bit expensive compared to other products. There's no highly skilled support engineer (as far as I know) in my local area that could easily address our concerns.
Replacing/returning of product within its warranty period would take some time. Watchguard should look into this aspect and address to improve its process.

A Firewall and intuitive software and the most versatile hardware.
What do you like best about the product?
The versatility of the product is one of its best features... The configuration of the rules is very intuitive to perform, apart from all the options for the control and supervision of the lines and connected equipment.
What do you dislike about the product?
In reality, it is about the product I have because even though you can have several lines connected and perform load balancing, the connection to the internal network is made at 1gb, and that limits the total bandwidth.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Well, what has already been mentioned above has no solution unless I choose much more powerful hardware... But the benefits in general are the versatility it gives me in connecting multiple lines to implement and have various rules.
