Solid VPN Tool

PROS

I use WatchGuard AuthPoint for one thing and that is to access our network via VPN when I am working remotely. It is very simple to use. You enter your password and you are done. I do not experience any lag or issues.

CONS

There really isn't much to dislike. I do wish that WatchGuard would remember my password instead of requiring me to enter it each and every time.

MFA for Authpoint

I am happy to use it other than installation.

PROS

It offers practical use as long as there are no problems with the internet. When there is no internet, it is necessary to scan QR from the phone.

CONS

The installation seemed very complicated to me, but our IT guy friend helped us.

Not a product I would recommend

I would change to DUO in a heart beat. DUO is far superior and even the lower levels of DUO is better than this.

PROS

It can at least do push notifications.

CONS

You get horrible reporting if any, limited third party integration, you can't even completely integrate with Azure for two-factor. The portal is horrible. I don't even contact support unless I'm forced to because it sucks. Even your re-sellers, or at least the one I have to use, charge me to work up a quote.

Authpoint is the way to go!

Watchguard Authpoint has given us the much needed boost to get our security to the desired level. Especially when the pandemic started and we had a large amount of remote workers that connected over SSL VPN, Authpoint made this happen securely and without compromising our security. We were lucky to have implemented Authpoint just in time when we massively needed it!

PROS

Oure remote workers can securely connect using MFA. The online tokens make this secure, and not possible to duplicate/copy the tokens. Approving SSL VPN connections via Authpoint Mobile is ultra fast!

CONS

We are missing the ability to force all users to change their Authpoint password every xx days. We are also missing the possibility to define a policy to enforce the minimum required password complexity.

Reason for choosing WatchGuard AuthPoint

We have a pair of Watchguard Fireboxes, so opting for Authpoint is THE way to go, as they work perfectly together!
