What do you like best about Watchman Monitoring?

The monitoring platform allows for us to have a consistent experience for both Macs and PCs. For our team this tool is the glue that holds everything together. Being able to keep on top of various expirations is something we have also come to rely on. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Watchman Monitoring?

The price has been increasing over the last couple of years. We take advantage of every discount possible and pay annually to save on the investment. The more it increases the more we are considering consolidation into other platforms (although to date we have not been able to replicate the feature set and ease of use that Watchman provides). Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Watchman Monitoring solving and how is that benefiting you?

We support mostly Macs with a smattering of some Windows devices in our MSP. Watchman provides us with one pane of glass for monitoring both platforms with the ability to run/export some nice reports that we present to our clients during regular risk reviews.
