Check Point Antivirus Reviews

Check Point Antivirus helps restrict malicious threats and trojans from entering into the IT system and secure the system end to end. 

Also, its feature of endpoint detection and response helps business users to restrict any malware attack onto the system in more robust manner and stop any threat attack attempts.

It also secures the system in a foolproof way and boosts the performance to greatest extent. This result boosted productivity and improved outcomes for the organization as a whole. It is one of the best antivirus applications on the market currently. 

Check Point Antivirus has removed the endpoint threats in a more secure and structured manner. 

Also, its advanced malware detection technique helped strengthen the IT system's security and permanently remove any threat entrant from the system.

Through ThreatCloud, it helps in the identification and correct detection of potential malware entry into the cloud server and also provides immediate auto-remediation upon detection of any threat attack on the server.

It is one of the best security solutions in the market today. We highly recommend it to everyone.

The ThreatCloud is an amazing feature and helps in intelligent and proactive detection of threat attacks along with auto-remediation of the system.

The industry cloud and integration services with alert notifications are some really exciting features that helped in achieving flexible and strengthened security administration.

It addresses zero-day threats and next-gen viral threat attacks on the system and also has strengthened the security administration through a single management console.

The cases of false positives should substantially be reduced to the greatest extent to keep the efficiency excellent.

Competition is huge and is strongly advised to keep innovating the features and utilities so that it stands out in comparison to its competition in the market.

They need to have an extension of the trial period/trial version so that more startups and small, marginal, and medium enterprises can also be part of this without any hesitation.

I've used the solution for six to 12 months.

The product offers amazing stability features.

The scalability is great.

We've had the best experience with technical support.

Positive

We are a first-time user.

It is easy to use and deploy across any platform.

The vendor assisted with the setup.

We've seen an ROI of over 80%.

I'd advise potential users to go for the Check Point advanced security solutions as they are credible and trusted by many.

A lot of security solutions were checked by the tech team.

Users should go for it; you will not regret it.

I wanted to protect my system from threats as sensitive business information was being stored in it, understanding that keeping the hardware in a secure location won't be enough measure to protect all the data in it. I went over different options in the market as Kaspersky Lab, ESET, Symantec, and Check Point of course, and spoke to a representative and did my own investigations. I came to the realization that this was the best solution for the need and the budget I had available and it hasn't disappointed me since.

Given the fact that threats are evolving every day, it is really important to have a solution that's ahead of transforming viruses that can leak in multiple forms and channels. Check Point offers a comprehensive solution that will not only create a firewall but will also protect the traffic of data from an application usage standpoint. It also provides email protection and detects threats in the public networks you're trying to connect your device to.

Phishing is an issue that is affecting a lot of businesses given the huge email traffic in businesses. Sometimes the server security firewalls won't detect threats from coming into the endpoints, so email protection is definitely one of them that's helpful. 

Filtering the websites that can be visited is important also as there's always a chance to come by sites that, just by clicking, will download malicious threats. Even when you are on secure sites, you will see that, with Check Point, some ads and advertising will be blocked as they could be potential viruses.

We've noticed that the management console has some limitations as it's managed through the browser. Despite being user-friendly it could definitely include a wider range of security measurements that can make it more customizable depending on the end-user interests. If the end-user happens to want a Linux OS it can't access the smart console as it's .exe and only supported through Windows. This means they'll have to use a virtual PC to access the .exe which just makes it a bit of a hassle for these end-users.

I've been using the solution for over seven years.

We did use Kaspersky and switched as there were security concerns around the privacy of the data.

Check Point's price point was right in the middle. It's not the cheapest and not the most expensive and offers a good cost/benefit ratio.

We looked at Kaspersky, ESET, Symantec, BitDefender, and McAfee.

Overall I am very satisfied.

I work in a technologically advanced environment of data analytics and data mining services. We are experts in providing management consulting in the field of financial audit and data analytics for corporates to determine future business projections. We use a large number of tech tools and software with APIs with various platforms and portals of different vendors and clients' systems. Check Point antivirus is a one-stop solution for managing endpoint security solutions along with providing advanced security features to prevent malware attacks.

Check Point antivirus software is an all-in-one solution for providing system security from malware and phishing attacks from multiple systems and web sources. We are living in an era of hyper cyber threats and attacks and to tackle such threats, it is essential to have foolproof system security from all kinds of endpoints. 

The antivirus software should be able to prevent all kinds of system attacks in a smart and efficient way without harming the system configuration. It is highly cost-effective and results in an umbrella solution against all kinds of malware and spam. It provides 360 degrees in security management for web and cloud systems.

Check Point antivirus software is agile and efficient in managing spam and threat attacks on web and cloud systems. The software is extremely efficient in scanning computers and websites all the time. The software runs in the back of the system and never hampers the work at the front end.

It is highly cost-effective and saves enough manpower cost in tackling such phishing attacks on the system.

It has a customer-savvy interface and easily customizable as per client and business requirements.

Deployment is easily adjustable.

We'd like the solution to kindly start this service offering on SaaS and PaaS models also. It would help more and more small, marginal and large businesses to come forward and try the solution. Customer attraction and retention are the need of the hour.

It is highly advisable to receive more and more genuine feedback from users and publish it on websites as feedback traffic is extremely important to gauge business performance progress.

It is advised to have a longish trial period for business users as an extended trial period will help customers to assess their requirements in a better way and will greatly help in their buying decision.

It's been more than two years now since I started using the solution and the experience is so far so good.

It is highly stable in the most fragile environments. It never breaks down.

The solution is impressive and highly scalable 

Technical support is highly responsive and attentive to any of our service requests.

Positive

I have used the Quick Heal Total Security Antivirus solution in past and found the same little costly and ineffective in a few performance parameters which pushed me to switch from the earlier solution to Check Point.

It is an easy deployment with no tech detailing as things were crystal clear since inception and were not at all fussy.

We used a vendor team only. We had a good experience with them. I'd rate them five out of five. 

We've seen an ROI of almost 30%.

Always aim to optimize the setup cost, pricing, and licensing as any overboard in these costs can backfire on the organization and business can get adversely affected.

We also looked at Norton, McAfee, and Trend Micro security solutions.

It's a one-stop solution for 360-degree endpoint security management for your web and cloud systems. It provides end-to-end protection from viruses and malware attacks and strengthens our system security to the fullest. 

We primarily install Check Point Antivirus on company computers and laptops to prevent malware infections, particularly focusing on protecting against phishing attacks and malicious downloads by employees.

The platform has significantly improved our organization's cybersecurity posture by effectively detecting and containing malware threats. 

The product's sandboxing feature is valuable as it runs suspicious files in a virtual environment. It helps us analyze their behavior without risking the main system.

The platform's malware detection capabilities could be enhanced. There is room for improvement in detecting more sophisticated and emerging threats.

Additionally, including AI-driven features that can automatically generate and optimize security policies based on the organization's specific needs and threats would be beneficial.

I have been using Check Point Antivirus for about two to three years.

The platform has proven to be very stable. We have not encountered any major issues or downtime related to its operation.

The product seamlessly scales from small to large deployments without any noticeable performance degradation. I rate the scalability a ten. 

I have heard positive feedback regarding the technical support team's responsiveness and expertise.

Positive

The initial setup was straightforward. Installing agents and deploying the software on devices was simple, although configuring detailed security policies required some cybersecurity knowledge.

I rate Check Point Antivirus a seven out of ten. 

We use the solution for antivirus, device encryption, file encryption, and URL filtering.

The solution offers multiple features in one solution, along with data detection.

The agent side should be less. It impacts customers' asset performance because it will be more complex for the customers.

I have been using Check Point Antivirus for 6-8 months.

Check Point should provide some technical sessions on antivirus solutions. Then, it would be helpful to reach more customers in India.

I rate the solution’s stability a seven out of ten.

The solution is scalable. We have a few customers using this solution.

It is quite difficult to get a response from OEM. We are facing issues with all products except for email security, with the support team of the Check Point.

The initial setup is complex, depending on the number of assets. It takes less than half an hour for a single asset. We should set up everything after deploying and testing it. Symantec takes five to ten minutes after deploying to test everything. We use manual deployment.

The solution is helpful for a particular budget. We are getting the best solution that will cover all your parameters.

The product’s pricing is moderate.

Every feature provided by the antivirus software is good compared to other solutions. Sandboxing is helpful for customers while downloading and detecting malicious software.

1-2 persons are required for deployment, whereas the maintenance and monitoring need a team of three to five members.

I will recommend the solution. It's a very good solution compared to other antivirus capability servers. The sandboxing technology is helpful.

We have not integrated it with any other tool set. We integrated a Check Point to get the logs or connect the data.

Overall, I rate the solution an 8 out of 10.

In search of a solution that allowed us to analyze, detect, evaluate and, above all, correct at the antivirus level within the network in a perimeter way, we have used the solutions that come in the Check Point appliances, thus giving us the possibility of enabling a lot of its most outstanding features.

We had been trying to complement the antivirus solution across our computers. We searched and tested different providers, reaching the conclusion that we could get the most out of solutions that we already had as they were already giving us additional protection. We needed, however, additional protection that would allow us to configure from a perimeter device all the conditions, rules, policies, and needs for blocking or security in the organization's network. With this solution, we could generate value and security in each of the actions that users have within the perimeter network. 

Its most outstanding characteristic is its ability to achieve and define a line of security based on policies and identity. Based on users, devices, and objects, it is generating a correlation of activities. We have login management in case there is suspicious activity. With the solution, we are managing to establish a correlation between malicious events outside normal behavior. We have sought and succeeded in enabling the features based on a legal framework and government security framework. It is possible to engage with international suppliers and regulators with relative ease. 

We should be able to generate client applications based on a structure and scheme that uses the power of computation of local devices to generate interaction and remote management. There needs to be more internally connected systems in order to achieve real-time effectiveness. The solution should establish communication in real-time, thereby multiplying those possibilities of interaction in a faster way when it comes to communicating against your central server. 

I've used the solution for one year.

The antivirus helps the organization in securing desktops and mobile devices from external data threats. It detects the entry of viruses to devices that can destroy data and quickly takes necessary action. 

Once the software is installed, there is no additional cost that is required to run it. It troubleshoots any errors that may slow down workflows across applications. Check Point Antivirus integrates with multiple operating systems, including Windows and Linux. 

Since I installed it on my desktop, the browsing speed has improved, and I can visit several sites without fear.

The software has improved the digital experience of employees who have deployed it. 

I can comfortably open links attached to my emails and share documents with my colleagues without fear of cyber attacks. 

Departments that used to lose data to virus attacks can work from any site and focus more on productive business engagements. 

The antivirus provides advanced security data analytics that helps the user to work from safe sites that can affect tasks in progress. 

The software screens applications to ensure they perform effectively.

Virus detection helps teams to be aware of any threats that can harm data and take precautions in advance. 

It provides networking reports on the data security situation, which enables users to make decisions. 

Performance metrics provided regularly help the IT team plan to curb any threats to company data.

It is easy to deploy the antivirus and learn how it works. 

The application runs very fast and does not affect the performance speed of the device where it is installed. 

Daily security analysis indicators help team members to engage any abnormality with real-time insights.

The current features are doing extremely well. That said, the system coding can be simplified to enable any user to interpret the security situation of the used device. 

I am happy with the set data models since they monitor the security situation of new sites before browsing. 

I have not observed most failures since I started using this software. 

The company can embark on timely updates to ensure the application is compatible with devices. 

Customer support comes in on time when we contact them via online chats and phone calls. 

When there are many devices, it is more costly since each device requires unique login credentials. 

The product is heavy, and it requires more space for effective operation. New users can find it difficult to set up and install due to the lack of a robust user manual.

I've used the solution for eight months.

It works for a long time without failing and does not misbehave.

The antivirus performance has been excellent.

The customer service team has never failed us.

Positive

I used Kaspersky Antivirus, however, it used to fail most of the time. 

The installation process of the application is easy and straightforward.

I deployed it through a vendor, and they are doing well.

A secure work environment has contributed to increased ROI.

The pricing is suitable, and the setup process is simple.

I evaluated most free online antiviruses, however, they were not effective.

 Check Point Antivirus is a sure bet for the detection of any virus.

We are using the Antivirus blade to protect our organization against threats such as viruses/malware that could propagate in our information system and harm it in various ways. 

Thanks to the important database maintained by Check Point that relies on this blade, we can enforce a strong security policy on our devices and be compliant with the latest best practices regarding internet threats. 

We operate several firewalls in our organization and we especially need this kind of efficiency on the internet-facing ones.

The Antivirus blade has improved our organization in several ways, including having better global security against viruses and malware, having better visibility and protection regarding files that go in and out of our company, offering better scaling and integration with other security products, and probably offering better threat management. 

It globally helps us in having centralized management of all internet content, which is efficient in terms of managing exploitation and helps our technical support teams to fulfill their daily missions.

One of the features that we find most valuable is the simplicity of the configuration through the Smart Console interface. 

It is very easy to manage the Antivirus blade, even for newcomers in our technical support team, which is a key area of interest for us. 

Also, the sandbox feature is very interesting as it can automatically isolate an infected machine from the network, which is valuable. 

We could also talk about the real-time detection scan feature that can monitor files as they are being accessed, which allows for a quicker response time.

It may be interesting to improve this solution against zero-day attacks, as they happen very frequently and are clearly a severe threat. 

On a more practical level, the complaint opening process through technical support could be better, as it must be done through the portal only for now. 

On a financial level, prices for CP products could be improved. We know for sure that they are all high-quality products, however, sometimes it doesn't justify high prices on some products.

We have been Check Point Antivirus for two years now.

The solution is easily scalable among CP devices.

We used the Stormshield solution and we switched to have a better integration with other security devices.

The setup can be painful, and pricing/licensing can be high. That said, the quality is there.

Yes, we also evaluated Fortinet.
