WatchGuard EPDR does have areas for improvement. One significant gap is the lack of a virtual patching feature integrated into the endpoint security. This would be particularly useful for endpoints running operating systems that are no longer supported, such as Windows 7.

The AV and scanning features could be a little bit better. The product does not find some things when we initialize a scan compared to our secondary product, Palo Alto XDR.
The solution could improve when the solution keeps adding more new functions. Every three months, they launch something new on it. You should activate all features that you need to activate and work with the same client. You don't need to install a different client for something. For example, it's the same client if you have EPP and want to move into EPDR. You activate the license, and it turns into an EPDR. The solution could have improved availability. When I send a notification, it neutralizes immediately. However, this delay doesn't mean it fails to perform on time. Their notifications arrive a bit later.
The price of the product is not good for Latin America's market. The product is available at a very high price, making it an area where improvements are required. I would like to see some of the extra models that are provided as add-ons, integrated with the technology, and provided to users as a standard tool. The add-ons provided by the product include areas like patch management and encryption. The integration capabilities provided by the product should include the other systems in the market and not just Windows-based systems on which WatchGuard EPDR presently focuses.
EDR for continuous monitoring that prevents the execution of unknown processes. Behavioral analysis and detection of IoAs (indicators of attack) scripts, macros, etc. Automatic detection and response for targeted attacks and in-memory exploits. Endpoint protection capabilities such as URL filtering, device control and managed firewall. Zero-Trust Application and Threat Hunting features delivered as managed services. Lightweight agent and easy-to-use Cloud-based console with detailed...
