Includes Standard Support Subscription

WatchGuard knows how important support is when you are trying to secure your network and this WatchGuard Standard Support licence gives you the backup you need, starting with an initial subscription that supports you from the moment it is activated on your appliance.

Hardware Replacement Warranty

Having an active Standard Support subscription extends the one-year hardware warranty that is included with each WatchGuard appliance. Not only that, it also provides advance hardware replacement, which means that should there ever be a hardware failure, WatchGuard will ship a replacement, in advance of receiving the returned appliance, thus minimising downtime.

Software Updates

Hackers never sleep. That is why this WatchGuard Standard Support subscription gives you access to updates and enhancements for your WatchGuard product. And you are not limited to minor software patches; new software versions are available to active Standard Support subscribers throughout the supported life of the product.

Technical Support

All WatchGuard appliances come with a minimum of 90 days Standard Support. Annual subscription renewals entitle you to submit up to five support cases per subscription year on the web or the phone. Reported issues that are the result of software or hardware defects are not counted against your five case limit. Active subscribers who need additional assistance from technical support may opt to upgrade to Gold, which includes an unlimited case count while the subscription is active, or purchase a Priority Case Upgrade 5-pack.

Security Alerts

WatchGuard’s Rapid Response Team – a dedicated group of network security experts, monitors the internet to identify emerging threats, then delivers Standard Support alerts that tell you specifically what you can do to address each new menace. By customising your alert preferences, you can fine-tune what kind of advice and alerts the Standard Support sends you.

Technical Resources and Self-Help Tools

In addition to providing you with direct personal support, you get access to a variety of video tutorials, training courseware, and online tools such as the WatchGuard User Forum and Knowledge Base. These tools have been specifically designed to answer questions you may have regarding network security in general, as well as the technical aspects of installing, configuring, and maintaining your WatchGuard products.

Purchase Upgrade for Remote Installation

Need help getting your network security configured for maximum effectiveness? WatchGuard offers fee-based Remote Installation Services for comprehensive assistance with initial setup and configuration of your WatchGuard product. Schedule an appointment for a remote installation consultation at your convenience, and an experienced WatchGuard technician will assist you over the phone for up to two hours to review your needs, configure and test your product, while educating you on how to achieve the best performance.

Unified Security Defeats Complexity

The WatchGuard Unified Security Platform is a true force multiplier for IT teams. It makes operational ease possible by integrating the WatchGuard Firebox with WatchGuard’s authentication, endpoint security, and WiFi solutions to enable comprehensive, multi-layered security. Unifying security into a single platform unlocks efficiencies simply not possible with siloed systems, allowing for automation of frequent manual tasks that take up time.

Cloud’s-Eye View of Your Entire Network

WatchGuard Cloud provides full visibility into your network so that you can make timely, informed, and effective decisions about your network security anywhere, anytime. The platform displays 100+ dashboards and reports that allow you to quickly see high-level trends and anomalies, then drill down into detailed information on each.

Expansion Modules for Greater Port Density

The M590 provides an empty bay that can be used to add network modules (sold separately) to define a configuration that meet the needs of almost any network configuration. Expansion module options include four (4) 1GbE copper, four (4) 1Gbps SFP, two (2) 1Gbps SFP+, or four (4) multi-speed ports. Network modularity empowers IT pros to customise the port configuration to meet their needs, while ensuring the flexibility to adapt the firewall as their network evolves.

Power over Ethernet Support

The Firebox M590 can be equipped with a 4-port multi-speed PoE+ module (sold separately) that eliminates the need to have separate power running to peripheral devices. PoE+ ports simplify the process of powering other devices, like security cameras or WatchGuard’s USP WiFi access points (sold separately).

Easy to Manage

It’s in WatchGuard’s DNA to deliver advanced network security technologies that were previously thought to be too complex for small and midsize organisations. They take these enterprise-grade technologies and make them easy to manage and deploy. The end result? Small to midsize businesses have one solution, delivering enterprise-grade security, that can be managed from a single-pane-of-glass centralised console.
