As many other companies, Wendre works with important data that needs to be protected from different attacks.

We had some security incidents and constant performance issues with internet connections and Wi-Fi in the past. We used Range of Unify and Ruckus devices for Wi-Fi and WatchGuard XTM500 as a Firewall what was replaced with Firebox M440. Now we have proved this was a right choice.” – says Erkki.

Choosing WatchGuard Technologies

Erkki says that one of the reasons why Wendre AS migrated to WatchGuard was an excellent price and performance ratio. Along with that, WatchGuard provides easy and centralized management options and a fully featured security bundle.
