"Great EDR with minimal resource usage"
5/5
What do you like best about WatchGuard Endpoint Security?

Works on all platforms (PC, MAC, Mobile) and is very lightweight on resource utilization. Easy management and detects zero-days where other products have to wait for definitions or hashes. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about WatchGuard Endpoint Security?

The only downside is if you are managing many devices and need to apply different settings to specific devices, the policy hierarchy is a little confusing, but it has gotten much better with recent updates. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Adaptative defense 360"
5/5
What do you like best about WatchGuard Endpoint Security?

I really like the peace of mind it gives me knowing that my customers are protected even from new virus/trojan attacks. By working by list of known software you have a total guarantee that it will stop any new malicious software that is created. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about WatchGuard Endpoint Security?

At the moment there is nothing I don't like about adapative defense 360. Perhaps it is the case that it can block custom software updates for the client. But it doesn't become a real big problem because entering the console you can unlock in a matter of seconds or create an exclusion, which I advise against since the unlocking is done very quickly and the client machines detect it almost immediately.

"Excellent product with great features and support!"
5/5
What do you like best about WatchGuard Endpoint Security?

I have been using Adaptive Defense for over three years now across over 200 devices and its an excellent product, prior to moving to it I had tested a number of other business AV products and found it to be well priced but with many valuable features, including the ability to control certain aspects of the device hardware such as USB and Bluetooth from the central console.

Excellent control over web use is also a great feature and you can group this even down to a single machine level based on web content and even timed access.

I have recommended this to friends who work in IT as I feel its an excellent product that provides great protection for a business. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about WatchGuard Endpoint Security?

The is plenty I like about this product, but I am struggling to find anything I really dislike, I think a new to have would be improved alerting - the is some basic email alerts that go out for various triggers, if I could have extra detailed options this would be ideal. The very useful so I guess it's just a case of making more use of this rather than generating potentially unnecessary emails. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Solid product with lots of options that maintains itself"
4.5/5
What do you like best about WatchGuard Endpoint Security?

From our perspective, it does a good job on endpoint threat reduction, and it runs seamlessly with minimal administrative actions required. The web filtering piece is easy to set up and is very effective at keeping our users off of sites they should not be on. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about WatchGuard Endpoint Security?

We really don't have any issues with the product. Users sometimes complain about a site being filtered when it should not be, but that has become very rare. Where needed, we can put exceptions in. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
