We don’t develop products by sitting at our desks. We work closely with those who use them every day, and find out what they want most. As a WatchGuard partner or customer with an active account, you can join our software beta program to experience our products in the early stages, and give your feedback to influence the course of development. We highly value all feedback, as it is critical to the success of our solutions and ensuring what we ultimately deliver meets all your needs.
