WatchGuard DNSWatchGO provides DNS-level protection and content filtering that keeps the user's business safe from phishing, ransomware, and other attacks even when a user is outside of the network, without requiring a VPN.
If you are well versed with servers and server security and just need a scanning tool but can do malware mitigation yourself, then you'd probably be ok with this. If you are not, there are a lot of steps to even connect your server and get it to scan correctly, and no mitigation steps are made immediately obvious should there be a threat, so it's a lot for an unfamiliar or beginner user.
We have a lot of salesman that everyday have to connect to the office from remote, different places. the problem was that vpn is not safe anymore, with DWatchGuard DNSWatchGO they can connect without vpn and in safe mode, all the traffic is control by dns request so the bad site request are immediately block and the network is safer. Sometimes a category can be faulty, some good website are mark as "bad", so until WatchGuard DNSWatchGO fix the category you cannot use the website. or you have to make a rule to enable the website.
It provides a web application firewall (WAF) that helps to protect websites and web applications from cyber-attacks. The WAF uses advanced security rules and machine learning algorithms to identify and block malicious traffic.

Incident response services of Comodo cWatch helps us to quickly respond to security incidents. This includes a team of security experts who are available 24/7 to provide assistance in the event of a security breach.
We really need an extra layer of protection for our laptops. Choosing the DNSWatchGo makes sense as we have Watchguard firewall. If we had another brand of firewalls we would probably use anther product instead!
Support is chat only and was not very easy to deal with. I had to spend hours on chat with them just to get my server connected properly. I was getting cookie cutter answers for a while before they were able to get someone more higher up to me. Didn't seem US based either.
Comodo cWatch competes with Barracuda Web security that we also used and stand out with its amazing features and solutions such as application monitoring, real time web traffic analyzing, security and policy management, early threat and detection and identifying the risk for prevention. With all these reason being handy to us we choose Comodo cWatch.
At the time we were looking for a DNS based protection solution we had also tried "Blue Shield Umbrella". Both programs had similar behavior, but the main reason we eventually decided to go with DNSWatchGo was the fact the we have WatchGurd firewalls. So deploying DNSWatchGo was easy as we just copied the Application Control settings from our firewalls to the DNSWatchGo setup. Also Watchguard firewalls already have the DNSWatch service for the PCs that are connected to them while inside the company network, so it makes sense to equip them with the same shield while outside the company network.
