    If the environment is predominantly Apple based then Jamf Protect is a strong solution for providing EDR capabilities to endpoints. The detection capabilities are up to par with other leading EDR tools and it integrates well with Jamf MDM. Additionally, the compliance, telemetry, log forwarding, and USB device management being included as part of Jamf Protect provide good ROI.

    I can only speak to WatchGuard Endpoint Security being well suited for us. Because we have over 350 devices (tablet, laptops, desktops, phones) on our network, this product has been a great fit, especially when paired wih our Firebox m390. Again, the protection is fast, low overhead, and virtually undetectable that it is running all the time.

    Cons

    • Jamf scoping can be a but of a pain sometimes

    • White listing scripts are either all or none, not able to white list a particular script
    • There is a delay occasionally from when an endpoint recognizes a potential threat to when that is reported in the cloud management tool
    • Other than those two, Watchguard Endpoint Security has been great - easy to deploy, manage, support and great at protection

    Usability
    Jamf Software, LLC
    Jamf Protect is easy to manage. It is a separate interface from Jamf MDM which is nice for Security Operations teams. It allows Security teams to manage only the Security aspects without having to dig through all of the MDM configurations. For exception uses cases, Jamf Protect does provide options to customize settings where needed.

    Easy and intuitive MSP management portal to manage all of your clients from a single pane of glass. Policies can be pushed down globally or individually based on needs. The client portal allows access to their tenant information and installs only which is nice if you are working with clients who might have an internal person or an IT team that also wants access to things to manage themself.

    The software is 100% managed on a cloud platform that can be managed via an account even if they are not present within the company network where the software is installed, I even always opened the control panel on the browser of my smartphone to monitor the situation.I have never experienced any abnormal software crashes

    The only annoyance I complain, if we want to be picky, is the fact of the constant disconnections from the control panel.Every about 4 hours the account logs out even if I set the "remember this device" flag; having said that I have not noticed neither slowdowns nor conflicts with other software

    I gave it a 10 because I compare it to air conditioning. I need it to work every day, 24/7. I need it to be reliable and not something that requires a ton of interaction from staff to make sure it works every day. In addition, I should be able to run other things at my house when the AC is on. Panda fits that description.

    The training was very helpful. It demonstrated how to configure the service for initial install, items to monitor, and how to set up for ongoing protection. Hands on training is more helpful but this is a good starting point

    Implementation shouldn't present any problems in standard office environments. In environments with development teams, however, caution is needed. If zero trust is enabled, mechanisms must be in place to ensure that internal software isn't classified as a false positive (software certificate, exception folder, etc.)

    In some aspects, Jamf Protect was far superior to the others mentioned above. The only downside I can see is that it is only macOS which could be a problem for hybrid environments.

    Despite offering great value for money, comparing Sophos' offering to WatchGuard Endpoint Security we find Sophos' offering is far superiour due to it's support system, the distributors it uses (apart from Arrow), it's management console, the resource-light application and, primarily, it's ability as an Endpoint Security program. Though the fact we offer both solution proves that WatchGuard Endpoint Security has it's place in an MSP's portfolio.

    With the implementation of watchguard (at the beginning Panda Endpoint, but it is the same) I was able to insert in the control panel all the unauthorized software previously installed by colleagues without any authorization from the various department heads.Now any licensed software goes into lockdown and can be unlocked from the control panel
