WatchGuard Trade Up Program
No Pre-Approval Necessary - Bigger Discounts!
By participating in the WatchGuard Trade Up Program, you ensure your network is protected by the very latest in security, reliability, and performance without hurting your bottom line. The Trade Up Program is available to both current WatchGuard customers wishing to upgrade earlier-generation products to our latest line of threat management solutions - and to customers of competing products ready to step up to the unmatched security and ease of use offered only by WatchGuard.
Program Details:
Trade in an earlier-generation WatchGuard appliance or any approved non-WatchGuard appliance-based security solution, and trade up to eligible new WatchGuard solutions at up to 25% off the standard purchase price. The WatchGuard Trade Up Program includes options to trade up to a physical appliance or a virtual appliance.
To activate Trade Up products, the owner must simply retire the eligible earlier generation WatchGuard appliance already on his or her existing account, or certify the responsible disposal of a non-WatchGuard product. (In some cases, WatchGuard may request the non-WatchGuard product be returned to us in lieu of disposal.) By retiring a product it no longer will appear among your managed products; is not capable of upgrades, add-on activation or software downloads; and ownership cannot be transferred.
Not all devices are eligible for all Trade Up appliances. Specific eligibility details are outlined in the Eligibility Chart below.
How to Purchase WatchGuard Trade Up Products:
If you have an eligible product you would like to trade up, simply purchase the unique Trade Up part number that corresponds to the desired available Trade Up product. WatchGuard products with unique Trade Up part numbers are available at GuardSite.co.il. The discount of up to 25% is built into the price so you see the savings instantly.
Activating Trade Up Products:
With an earlier generation WatchGuard product - During activation of the Trade Up product you will be required to identify an eligible product on your account to be replaced. The specific device must be active in order to complete the activation of the Trade Up product.
(To verify that the device you wish to replace is active and registered to the correct account, log on to the same LiveSecurity® account you will use to activate a new Trade Up product. Under the “Manage Products” heading, go to “Your Products. ”)Once the eligible device has been identified, it will be retired and the new box will become active.
- Retired product will be removed from the customer’s LiveSecurity account
- Retired product will not be eligible for upgrades, support, or software updates
- Feature keys are not available for retired products
- Retired products cannot change ownership and should never be sold to another party
With a non-WatchGuard device - Minimum requirements for approval require that a device be a network appliance dedicated to any (or any combination) of the following: firewall, VPN endpoint, URL content filter, spam filter, AV/IPS scanner, mail quarantine, and has an original retail value of at least two-thirds the discounted purchase price of the desired WatchGuard Trade Up device.
During activation, you will be prompted to identify the device by the manufacturer, model, and serial number. Once identified, and the terms and conditions of the program have been accepted, the new WatchGuard product will become active.
*IMPORTANT* – Further Action Required
To complete the process, a certificate of destruction (COD) must be completed and returned to WatchGuard within sixty (60) days of activation. The COD can be returned via fax to Attn: “WatchGuard Trade Up” at +1 206 299 3803, or in an email to [email protected]. The COD will certify that the competitive device used in the trade up has been destroyed and properly disposed of in accordance with local environmental standards.
WatchGuard reserves the right to deactivate the new Trade Up product if the COD for the appropriate comparable device is not received within sixty (60) days, or at any time if the Trade Up product is determined to have been activated in violation of any of the Trade Up Program’s Terms and Conditions.
