I'm not sure if I would recommend the product. My experiences are based on what we've seen in terms of response to our network environment. Maybe other companies have a good international network and maybe they would have not this issue. It's hard to say. In any case, we've had issues. Overall, I would rate the solution at a seven out of ten. Maybe they shouldn't be in the Chinese market.

We're a service provider and have been for a number of years. I'm a consultant. The solution is part of the firewall and the UTM. It's never really handled as a separate entity, though it is licensed. It's part of their unified threat bundle. I've used almost all of the current GUI interfaces. The antivirus has changed the backend engine a couple of times over the years. The current revision, I believe, is Bitdefender driven, but I'm not exactly 100% sure. I'd advise other organizations, when setting up the solution, to configure all proxies and policies prior to doing the subscription service setup. If the policies are pre-configured and your proxies are set up prior to activating the security antivirus or the Gateway AntiVirus, 90% of the configuration is done for you. You only find yourself manually doing it if you are building rules after the fact. As an antivirus and standalone product, I would rate the solution seven out of ten. The main reason is, as a gateway appliance, it does not have the capability to perform the same function as an endpoint antivirus. It is not a substitute for endpoint antivirus.
WatchGuard Gateway AntiVirus has VPN access for all systems. It's a firewall and an anti-virus agent. It's fully complete for my company. I would recommend the solution. On a scale from one to ten, I would rate it at ten.
Anti-malware solutions are software programs that are designed to protect devices from malware. Malware is a broad term that encompasses any software that is designed to harm a computer system. This includes viruses, worms, trojans, ransomware, and other malicious programs.
