So you you have some watchguard products?

@wrx7m Yes an xtm515, they add new stuff to it just about every other update. this strongarm might only be available for their cloud services though.

I am

I have it at home for free and at a client as a paid service.

I am quite nervous about this purchase.

I was quite looking for a good competitor to Cisco Umbrella (formerly OpenDNS).

Same here. I wish they would have stayed independent.
