Check Point Harmony Email & Collaboration Reviews

My company uses Check Point Harmony Email & Collaboration to provide security for Office 365 email and collaboration apps like Teams, SharePoint, OneDrive, and other related tools.

The most valuable feature of the solution is the phishing protection it offers.

The solution fails to support hybrid deployments.

Currently, the solution supports cloud email only. It would be great if they could also support hybrid deployments.

I have been using Check Point Harmony Email & Collaboration for three years. My company has a partnership with Check Point.

Stability-wise, I rate the solution a nine out of ten since there were a few minor issues that were quickly resolved while the uptime of the product has not been 100 percent.

Scalability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten.

I would say that probably around 50 percent of our customer base uses the solution.

The solution's technical support is very good. I rate the technical support a ten out of ten.

Positive

I rate the product's initial setup a nine out of ten since the setup phase is seamless 99 percent of the time. If the end user customized the Office 365 tenant a lot, then a manual setup might be required.

The solution is deployed on the public cloud while supporting cloud services from Google and Microsoft.

The deployment process of the solution takes about five minutes. It would probably take ten minutes if we consider from start to finish of the deployment process.

For deployment, there is a need to create an account in Check Point Infinity Portal, after which you can activate Harmony Email & Collaboration module and then provide the credentials to your Office 365 tenant, following which the integration process starts.

I rate the product's pricing a five on a scale of one to ten, where one is cheap, and ten is expensive.

It is a reasonably priced product offering good value for money.

I would say that since Check Point Harmony Email & Collaboration provides a two-week evaluation option, it's very easy to integrate into your environment in a read-only mode so that it doesn't interfere with your email. It just scans and then provides you a report afterward of the threats your solution has missed and what Check Point would have caught.

Check Point Harmony Email & Collaboration is a fantastic solution.

I rate the overall tool a ten out of ten.

This platform protects collaboration and email infrastructure from ransomware attacks. 

It helps departments to communicate efficiently and exchange files without any fear.

The setup and cost have been good from my experience, and I recommend it to other organizations.

I did not find any other effective platforms like this one.

This is a great product with high-performance features.

Our company uses Office 365 and clearly, we use Outlook. We needed a tool that had the functionality to verify and validate the emails that enter and leave our organization. With this tool, we can solve security problems since many of the collaborators work from home. With this, we have decreased phishing attacks. It offers quite a few types of analysis and reporting that help to clear up security doubts and how to counter these gaps.

Check Point Harmony Email & Collaboration is workload protection in the cloud. This firewall helps us provide controls on our organization's devices and has become our main tool in the analysis and coverage of the infrastructure and also maintains fairly reasonable scalability.

Check Point Harmony Email & Collaboration has helped our company with perimeter security and securing our employees from wherever they are working. It's strengthening security as it is able to stop phishing attacks on Office 365 accounts and block possible account hijacking. It is also responsible for detecting malicious files in both OneDrive and SharePoint. This makes the product more robust and also gives us visibility into suspicious access, and provides the areas from which they are trying to enter. With this other feature, it provides more integrity to our company.

We have found several features that are very valuable. One of them is the integration with Office365. In addition to that, it is fast and has a very simple, easy integration. In addition to that, it integrates with other Office 365 products. The false positives are minimal, almost nil. That is very important since it will not generate an absurd amount of emails. The functionality of the tool is very easy to configure and manage. The platform is friendly and makes its integrations even more, so this tool is very efficient.

Check Point Harmony Email & Collaboration presents a problem similar to the other Check Point tools that it was able to manage, and that is the access to its administrative functions. Since the portal to the management and administration entry sometimes has performance problems and takes a long time to respond to what has arrived, the handling of the tool is difficult. 

It presents problems in the management of technical support since the SLA is not optimal, causing delays. This means that security problems may arise since it does not provide a quick response or a concrete solution.

I have been using it for approximately 4 years

The tool stability is very good.

The scalability that the solution presents is very good. It is quite scalable.

The experience has not been very pleasant since we have opened cases and they take too much time to respond or schedule a meeting even to provide a solution.

Positive

There was no other solution implemented.

The initial configuration was very simple and fast.

During the implementation, the provider's team helped us, and it was very efficient; they knew what they were doing

The functionality that the tool presents with its characteristics and capabilities helped us a lot in our organization.

Like all security tools, they are expensive tools. However, Check Point competes in the market and its accessibility is good, so paying for a tool that provides security is worth it.

The company has already had several Check Point tools. For this reason, this tool was implemented to keep in line with the same brand and hopefully not present us with problems if we implement another one.

The only advice is to improve the technical support for your users since it is not very efficient.

We use the solution for preventing malicious emails that we're getting through Google's built-in spam filters. The amount of spam and phishing had greatly increased at our organization and we needed a solution implemented fast. 

Check Point was really quick to integrate and implement and instantly started providing value. The reporting we got during our trial helped to quantify the value to the executive team, in particular, the report that shows what Check Point caught items that Google's spam filters would've let through.

The amount of spam and phishing getting through to end users has reduced drastically. 

We are also now able to advertise how many malicious emails we get and how it is constantly increasing as we grow. This shows our users how valuable a solution like this is and they appreciate that sometimes it may get a false positive. 

We're abe to show to users why emails are quarantined - which has helped to train them on what to look out for if they do receive a suspicious email. We have also improved our reporting process and notifications to admins.

First and foremost, Check Point's ability to detect malicious emails and the filters they put in place are a big improvement on the built-in Google Workspace solution. 

Being able to mass quarantine and remove emails from end users' mailboxes has become extremely important to us as we have grown in size. Admins can be notified as soon as a suspicious email arrives in bulk mailboxes and can act extremely quickly. This has even helped us to notify partners that they had been breached before they knew themselves.

There are a few features that are more geared towards Microsoft users rather than Google, for example, user-reported phishing. It's not fully integrated with Google Workspace, and the statistics don't update in real-time. 

We appreciate that Microsoft has the larger market share, and Check Point has been improving its Google integration. However, more advancements would be appreciated. That being said, the "What Google wouldn't have caught" report was extremely valuable to us in showing value. 

I've used the solution for nine months.

We evaluated other solutions, such as Mimecast, Proofpoint, and Abnormal.

The advanced software blocks advanced email phishing that can affect information infrastructure. 

It keeps my colleagues safe when interacting with our partners through collaboration. 

Our communication networking system is secure from end to end to enhance information safety and prevent cyber attacks. 

Sending emails is fast and efficient within the organization's ecosystem. This product provides security alerts when there is a threat that can affect our communication channel. 

Check Point Harmony Email & Collaboration caters to full cloud email security and other applications in the cloud.

Encryption of emails enhances safe communication that ransomware attacks cannot compromise. 

A secure collaboration environment has enhanced faster growth due to productive sessions convened by teams. 

It blocks unsafe emails before landing inbox to avoid time wastage. Blocking malicious emails has enabled employees to focus on their roles fully without fear of being attacked. 

Consistent security across the company infrastructure has saved the company costs that could be accrued from an insecure work environment.

Securing major file-sharing services across the company has been productive since we deployed this platform. 

The security system has a stable data protection system that has prevented potential data loss. 

This product detects malicious behavior in advance and immediately quarantines files before they can spread viruses to the entire network. 

URL protection features give me the confidence to browse the internet without fear of visiting unsafe sites. 

The user dashboard updates systems automatically to meet the current enterprise demands.

The system has programmed categories of threats that are detected automatically. 

This can lead to virus leakage and spread malicious data across the enterprise. 

The cost of deployment and integration with other applications is high. 

Some files are not scanned thoroughly due to occasional network failures.

We have experienced the best services from the performance of this platform despite a few operational challenges that rarely occur. 

Monitoring the system operation for new teams is not easy due to complicated configuration techniques.

I've used the solution for 12 months.

It is highly stable in the provision of email security.

This tool is good in overall performance.

The support staff is kind with fast responses to our requests.

Positive

I have no experience with a different solution.

The setup was complex during integrations though the support staff provided productive guidance.

Implementation took place through the vendor team.

There has been increased ROI (from 30% to 55%) since we deployed it.

The licensing terms have favored our organization.

We selected this product after a recommendation from our colleagues.

Email security is critical to any enterprise, and with this solution, everything is covered.

Check Point Harmony Email and Collaboration is the best security software that protects email and collaboration suites in one of the best possible way. It ensures the restriction of threat points and malware in a comprehensive manner. 

All our Google Workspace applications and Office 365 are thoroughly secured by the software. It's been a great experience so far. 

Multiple phishing activities and complete zero-day protection are all ensured through Check Point. 

Data loss and data leakage prevention are well deployed which helps businesses to scale and expand effortlessly without any trouble.

Check Point Harmony Email and Collaboration comes with end-to-end capabilities of system protection in a holistic manner. It is restricting the entry of phishing attacks, malware attacks, and ransomware threats. 

It ensures anti-phishing management effectively and prevents any data loss through encrypted database management. Bulletproof security is one of the best features which enables protection from the most sophisticated and evasive threat attacks. It claims to reduce phishing attempts by almost 100%

Zero-day protection of the cloud and email systems is possible with Check Point Harmony Email and Collaboration. It ensures anti-phishing management end to end, and with this product, there can not be any evasive attack of sophisticated malware and threats on the system. 

Data loss and leakage prevention are one of the best features as it ensures no data loss and that all confidential documents and information is secured forever.

Protection of all confidential and sensitive data base (DLP) is secured in the system forever with complete dashboard and data tracking management.

They could continue to offer more stringent security policy measures for threat point management. Their zero-day threat protection can be further strengthened to have better compliance control, as 1% data loss and data breaches are still possible through existing systems. Even this 1% carries the potential to harm the system for a long time. 

We should have more and more pilots of security systems across different business environments to have 100% security checks and compliance.

It's been using the solution for about a year now.

The solution is stable.

The solution is scalable.

Technical support is great.

Positive

We did not use a different solution. We started using this solution recently and have been happy with the experience so far.

The setup was easy and straightforward.

We implemented the solution through the vendor team.

We've seen an ROI of over 80%.

The setup cost is significantly low and quite affordable currently as per other competitive software. Also, the renewal and licensing process is streamlined and not complicated at all.

We evaluated a lot of alternatives simultaneously. Some of them included ESET Protect, Forcepoint DLP, Sentinel, and Kaspersky Endpoint Security, among others.

I'd advise new users to go for a trial of Check Point Harmony Email and Collaboration software and use it to its fullest to understand the capabilities at its best practices.

With the evolution of technologies, attacks also evolve. This is why we need to secure mail. We have chosen to include Harmony Email in our Office 365 mail solution to thus proactively ensure any incident that we may have in the future is dealt with. It gives us complete security support from anywhere. Wherever our users are, the solution will always be protecting them. 

Like any company, we care about security and having exposure to various clients and departments. We can be violated or have identity theft attempts, and this is where Check Point Harmony Email (and its computing power that is integrated from the Check Point cloud) comes in. It gives us the protection and analysis, to help us avoid phishing attacks and malware. By integrating solutions such as DLP, we can protect our identity and data. 

Its analysis or emulation in the review of each file using the cloud and Check Point helps make each interaction via email more secure.

One of the best features is the analysis and emulation carried out with each file attached to the emails, which makes each of the deliveries we make via email more secure. This function creates a scalable sandboxing where a copy of the file under analysis is made, and it is verified, scanned, and analyzed to each of our files for malicious links. If it finds a link, it emulates its action to determine if it is benign or malignant to deliver clean and safe data.

Something worth mentioning is the need for Spanish language support and better representation for teams in the Latin American area. There is a growing demand for these IT services and new technologies.

Its guides are not great. It would be more pleasing if these guides could be updated and improved in their design. 

The support that most requires attention is the phone calls or the cases through the support page. Several times, through the chat function, we found that it gets stuck and does not bring up the live chat.

I've used the solution for around two years.

The solution is very easy to scale.

There is a need for more support in Spanish. 

Positive

We did not previously use a different solution. 

It is quick to configure. The advantage is that it does not need us to install an agent on the machines. Everything is done from the administrators' consoles. 

We did not previously evaluate other options. 

It is a simple tool and centralizes its administration. Being able to request a POC from Check Point is a good opportunity that will give new users an opportunity to assess the quality and security capacity that it can provide.
