Activate a DNSWatchGO Trial License

Any account that does not already have an active DNSWatchGO license assigned to it can try it free for 30 days on a trial license. DNSWatchGO trial licenses have 250 users, are valid for 30 days, and can be renewed for another 30 days.

It is not necessary to have a Firebox to use DNSWatchGO. You can use it as a standalone product to protect your users both on and off the network, regardless of other WatchGuard products you might use.

Get Started with DNSWatchGO

To get started with DNSWatchGO, you must activate a trial license in the WatchGuard Support Center.

To activate a trial DNSWatchGO license for your account:

  1. Open a web browser and go to https://myproducts.watchguard.com/manage-products.
  2. Log in to your WatchGuard account.
    The Manage Products page opens.
  3. On the Manage Products page, in the Endpoint Security section, click View Products.
    The EndpointSecurity page opens with a list of devices activated for your account and available trial offers.
  4. In the Endpoint Security Products You Can Try section, find WatchGuard DNSWatchGO - 30 Days offer and click Start a Trial.
    The Activate Products page opens.
  5. In the Friendly Name text box, enter a name for your license. This gives you an easy way to identify your trial license on the WatchGuard website and in WatchGuard Cloud.

  1. Click Activate.

You now have an active DNSWatchGO trial license. The 250 users from the trial license are allocated to your DNSWatch account. The trial license expires after 30 days but you can renew it once to continue services for an additional 30 days.

You can manage DNSWatchGO from the DNSWatch Web UI. Click Access DNSWatch to log in to the DNSWatch Web UI.

Your DNSWatch credentials are the same credentials you use to log in to the WatchGuard Support Center.
