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.
When the user is connecting to the internet and should not access some social media website or malware sites or unauthorized websites which may distract users and affect the productivity so to avoid any problems. It is a very simple setup. It is very easy to deploy, configure, and implement.
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.
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!
Easy to setup and more stable solution. User friendly interface. Scalable and also in terms of cost it seems to be affordable solution with the best in-class protection benefits and other on demand features like dynamically updated rating architecture and high-performance web caching and rating architecture
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.
