FAQ’s

Frequently Asked Questions

Find quick answers to common questions about Watchdog Security’s features and support.

Do I need to purchase consulting to use WatchDog?

Nope! You can use WatchDog entirely on your own. Everything in the platform is available without any consulting. We provide detailed documentation and in-app guidance to help you get audit ready.

Technically, no one needs a Business license to use WatchDog. You can stay on the Free plan forever, or use the Core plan to access training, policy acknowledgment, vendor tracking, user monitoring, and more — all without touching the Business tier.

However, if you want to use our Compliance Center — which includes unlimited frameworks from our growing library of 15+ (like SOC 2, ISO 27001, HIPAA, etc.) — you’ll need a Business license for any admin who will be interacting with the Compliance Center.

Yes, you can mix licenses – even Free users. You only need to upgrade licenses where it makes sense. However, if a user needs to be included in compliance tracking or access the entire platform without restrictions they’ll need to be on at least the Core plan.

All of our consultants are part of the WatchDog team — no outsourcing, no random contractors. They’re based in Canada and bring years of hands-on experience in cybersecurity, compliance, and cloud architecture.

All consulting work is handled separately from your platform subscription. When you’re ready to proceed, we’ll sign a dedicated Master Services Agreement (MSA) + Statement of Work (SOW) that outlines the scope, deliverables, and timeline for your consulting engagement.
