Check Point Harmony Endpoint Reviews

We use the solution for multiple purposes such as endpoint protection, organizational malware attack tracking and maintaining, blocking of IP addresses, domain and URL blocking, and prevention and detection, according to the purposes we follow. 

Check Point is the best in the marketplace for next-generation firewalls. In combination with Endpoint Security, it proves to be stable, error-free, and up-to-date with the latest fixes and solutions available. 

Earlier in our organization there was normally an antivirus which was used to check endpoint protection and policies according to what was applied. However, the detection of endpoints was not up to date with real-time analysis. 

There is a lot of gap in analysis. The malware reports and signatures were not updated in real-time. There was no blocking of Suspicious URLs or domains in real-time. As we using Check Point in DMZ. We purchased the license and implemented it in the UAT zone for the best outcome as per the organization's requirements.

The most valuable aspects of the solution are the real-time endpoint analysis and blocking mechanism, the detection of malware and threats is the best use of this technology. 

As we have the stability of this product and best practices solution is applied to the infrastructure as endpoints have a clear view of the statistics and performance. 

Also, we have monitored the server level where it's been protected from the outside world. The CPU, memory, and hard disk consumption and compromisation are good. 

The dashboard has also been user-friendly and easy to understand.  

Check Point is the best in the marketplace. As the EDR [Endpoint Harmony] there is a lot of enhancement in fixing the solution. We have observed some policies are not working as expected. We have observed a few cosmetic issues as well, however, it's fine. 

Minor release should improve the stability and overall performance of the endpoint solution. Consumption of the endpoint solution should have clear visibility on day-to-day operation tasks that are being carried out also we should monitor the malicious IP address and URL for blocking the same.

I've used the solution for four or more years.

The stability is the best in the marketplace.

The scalability is the best in the marketplace.

Their technical support is the best in the marketplace.

We did not previously use a different solution.

The initial setup is straightforward.

We handled the setup with an in-house team. I'd rate the experience foud out of five.

The ROI witnessed is the best in the marketplace.

Check Point is the best in the marketplace. It's a good EDR and the cost is minimal.

We did not evaluate other options.

Check Point Antivirus Blade is enabled on all of our HA clusters throughout the world. The primary use case for this product is to protect our end-users while working physically in the office or remotely. It monitors all traffic in and out of the organization to detect known threats such as malware. Functionality is limited without HTTPS inspection as the blade will just look at SRC/DST traffic rather than be able to do packet inspections on actual traffic. It is great that it is included in the base FW license.

Check Point Antivirus has improved our organization by being able to identify known threats and actively drop connections to ensure our users remain secure. It leverages the Bogus DNS endpoint from Check Point to redirect traffic destined for known threats and doesn't require a lot of admin overhead to configure or tune based on the organization's needs. An added bonus is Check Points "Threat Cloud" which all of its gateways talk to so that attacks that are detected in one customer's environment are updated and would be blocked automatically within another environment. 

Check Point Antivirus is easy to configure. We enable the blade in the SMS for the gateway and that's pretty much it. You can get into the nitty gritty and fine-tune some of the settings to fit your organization better than the default settings, however, personally, I have yet to do this and it is working as expected in my organization. It is also great that this is not an add-on license and is included with the low-tier licensing which helps to reduce the overall cost to the organization while increasing the value of the product.

Check Point Antivirus could be improved by having the gateway automatically run a packet capture on the traffic so that it can be easily uploaded to TAC in the event that there is a false positive or if the traffic is required for further investigation. I have had a few times where something was detected as being a false positive and TAC requested so much information that in all honesty, was not worth my time to collect as the URL being blocked was a simple webpage that, based on my analysis, the IP was previously being used for malicious intent and was now a legitimate business however was still being blocked by the blade.

I've used the solution for five years. 

We have not had any performance issues.

It is easy to scale and enable on SGs as long as they are managed by the same SMS.

Support has improved over the years.

Positive

No previous solution was utilized. This solution has been in place on the SGs since they were installed.

The setup is straightforward. It is enabled from the SMS and it works.

We managed the setup of the solution in-house.

The ROI is revealed by the fact that it protects end-users.

Check Point in general is moderately priced compared to competitors.

We evaluated Palo Alto and Fortigate.

There are many factors that make Check Point Harmony Endpoint as the main solution for our end-to-end system and data security of the organization. 

The primary use case of Check Point Harmony Endpoint, in our case, is to monitor every node against viruses and digital vulnerabilities, which keeps a 24/7 check over the happenings and keep us alerted against any unforeseen. 

The most important benefit of this solution has a single agent for security purposes and offers great stability during any heavy performance activity.

It has improved the overall security of our organizational digital well-being and made things and monitoring processes a lot easier and more straightforward. 

Integration with third-party servers and data endpoints and 24/7 background security checks are very useful for us and has been very instrumental phenomena in keeping things simple and secure for us. 

It has the ability to configure with any type of system and operating environment, which is great and makes it a more useful product for multiple business entities.

It has the ability to configure with any type of system and operating environment, which is great and makes it a more useful product for multiple purposes.

Overall, my experience with the product is great, and it's a perfect endpoint solution for multiple purposes. 

The solution can be made lightweight in order to keep the systems more effective during the background operations of the scanning and security checks. 

The user interface of reporting dashboard needs to improve for a better understanding of the end users and the administrators. 

The pricing of Check Point Harmony Endpoint can also be reduced. They are quite expensive at the moment. 

I've used the solution for two years.

We found it to be 99% stable and smoothly runs in the background.

It is a scalable solution and everything can be easily monitored, and data can be maintained.

Customer service is great and always helping us with quick solutions.

Positive

It was straightforward to set up and deployed over the cloud.

We implemented the solution via in-house teams.

We've witnessed a positive ROI.

It is a great cost with high-end Check Point features within reasonable cost brackets. You must try it.

Overall this is a great solution with a lot of benefits and ease of use. 

The solution has a mobile monitoring system called WatchTower that you can link to a mobile. It would be great if they could add an antivirus feature so that we can monitor individual TCS activities too. Anyone willing to use this solution can certainly do so. The tool is very easy to use and the approach to security and updates is very good. Implementing policies and rules on-premises is also very user-friendly with the solution. Moreover, we can direct three to four billings together. If one ISP goes down, the second one automatically picks up. People wouldn’t even know that their internet has dropped. This kind of technology with low latency is very advantageous.

I would like to see them implement a system that would enable us to do certain things from our mobile like applying policies, opening up and blocking ports, and restricting connection. It is because IT personnel are not always around on the premises. We can instantly do these things from our mobile. 

They should also consider reducing the price so that more people will go for the solution.

I have been using the tool for almost two years.

The tool is stable.

The tool is scalable. There are roughly 60 users for the solution in our company.

I have not contacted the tech support team directly. I contacted them through the Check Point dealers in Sri Lanka. They have technicians who assist us. I contacted them several times to understand some settings during the installation of the tool in the system.

I have used Kaspersky and found Check Point to be better. There was an incident with Kaspersky when a person clicked on an email-generated ransomware and it got onto the system. Kaspersky couldn’t protect against the attacks and the ransomware spread. However, when the system was monitored by Check Point, the firewall protected it from downloading any malicious files. Hence, Check Point is doing a better job than Kaspersky. The only advantage that Kaspersky has over Check Point is the price since it is cheaper than Check Point. 

Kaspersky costs below 50,000-40,000 Sri Lankan Rupees.

The deployment of the solution is straightforward.

We are paying 2,50,000 Sri Lankan Rupees annually which is the fixed charge.

I would rate the solution a nine out of ten. The solution does a pretty good job and is easy to use. I am the person maintaining the tool and only one person is required to maintain it. Their configuration portal is user-friendly and anyone can crack it with a little bit of knowledge.

Check Point Antivirus is a one-stop solution for detecting endpoints and malware and diffusing them immediately upon detection. 

They are ranked the world's number four anti-malware tool with a high catchment rate of viruses and improved efficiency for a better outcome for small, marginal, and bigger organizations. 

Check Point Antivirus has received a lot of good peer feedback publicly, and this improves its transparency and credibility to a great extent. Its efficiency is worth welcoming, and due to its improved performance and no lags during functioning, it is highly recommended.

Check Point Antivirus has improved the overall efficiency of our laptops and other e-devices end to end, as now we can handle fast attack resolution against ransomware and malware. 

It monitors our network and devices throughout and brings the best endpoint protection for our systems and servers. 

The organization has significantly reduced and cut down on expenses due to the wide benefits of the software and also its sustainable use and requirements. It has helped organizations to scale properly without any issues related to malware and ransomware attacks

The speedy catchment rate of endpoints and malware is exceptionally good and act as a precursor for organizations in order to deploy this antivirus and secure the system and servers in a proactive manner without any trouble. 

It has an inbuilt AI system that helps in diffusing the virus in a proactive manner and protects the system from getting damaged at the worst level.

The pricing is also quite affordable for marginal organizations as well, and their improved efficiency is great. Signing and renewing of MoUs were not difficult at all. They are a good stakeholder to work with.

I strongly feel that the extension of the trial version of the antivirus should be extended with more features included so that new users may test the software at its best. A thoroughly informed buyer can make a decision in a sound manner which creates a win-win situation for both Check Point and the client.

They need to add more and more features in the trial version and significantly reduce the pricing for the standard annual subscriptions for the benefit of all.

I've been using the solution for more than four months now.

The product is stable.

The solution is impressive and scalable.

We've had a great experience with technical support so far.

Positive

We did not use a different solution previously. Check Point is the best of all options. 

The solution is straightforward and easygoing in terms of the initial setup. 

We implemented the solution through the vendor.

The ROI is very good.

It is easy and straightforward to set up without any complexity. Licensing is easy to onboard, and there is no implementation trouble at all.

We did evaluate a lot of options. 

We looked into Cisco, Juniper, and Sophos. They were all carefully evaluated by my tech team before switching to this product.

Check Point should keep bringing and infusing in new features and functionalities. That will act as an edge against fellow competitors.

I am using this product to prevent any kind of advanced threats. It keeps monitoring in the backend and does not hamper my ongoing work at all. it also secures my web browsing and has forensics access along with a sandbox to emulate and extract too. 

Before using this product, we had tried multiple others yet were not satisfied with the performance and dashboard reports. Check Point products allow us constant filtering and protect us from any kind of threats. 

It has been used for a banking environment and helps us to secure our end computing where USB blocking and even disk encryption and so many features have been bundled together. 

Securing our data was critical. It helps a lot and gives control to end users while they connect through the VPN. Secure VPN connectivity is important. It helps us to avoid any kind of risk when users are at home. 

It helped us a lot during the first phase of the Covid lockdown, which revealed the benefits of this product. 

I loved almost all the features.

The zero-day threat prevention is excellent. It gives us more confidence to have automated protection from unknown threats. 

It helps to secure our browsing. It can check if something is a genuine page or not. It also masks when we browse or enter our banking user ID and password. This gives us assurance that we are in a green and safe zone. 

I would like to see them add features where we can use this license for mobile browsers, too - as we had a container kind of product under MDM. This can give us more confidence that when on the go, a user still has full access to our important and crucial data. They should be fearless while accessing this through our VPN tunnel. 

Mobile handsets are now used for 40% of work to send mail or forward any kind of document. Securing users on mobile will give more confidence to users and higher authorities that will sometimes need to have access outside of the office for doing their financial or confidential transactions.

I've used the solution for more than four years.

After using this product last fours year I've never seen a single case where any devices have been affected. Even a lost device has not been a deal breaker. We have full control on end-user clients with the help of Check Point SandBlast. 

It is very easy to scale. There are so many testing opportunities and upgrades. The features also do not slow down the CPU. From a stability and manageability point of view, it's very impressive. 

Support can help us define and create policies on each and every use case. We also have the in-house expertise to provide support and handle the initial trouble shooting. 

Positive

We were using Symantec and Sophos. There was not 100% clarity on reports, and we had many challenges in terms of upgrading the features. 

When we switched to Check Point, we got a single dashboard to control end clients, DLP, and email security. Their collaboration and support team is also awesome. 

You can set up the policies very easily. You just post and restart your devices and everything is secure. Items can be managed under group policies. You can set up your own rules and policies easily. 

Initially, we had taken advantage of Check Point expertise. Now, an in-house team can handle everything. It is manageable on our side. 

If you talk about ROI, it's helped us to protect our end-user devices. We've also found the performance of laptops has increased in the past one and a half years. It offers good value for money. 

Securing data, peace of mind, great support, good reports, and third-party network audits have made Check Point good value for money. 

I had tried Palo Alto and Fortinet, however, we got value for money in Check Point. After a POC, we started with Check Point. 

There are so many useful examples a normal office could take advantage of. It's a great product for working from home or remote users. The Check Point team is also great and has served us by helping put in place the right kinds of products. 

Check Point Antivirus has proven to be a savior. It helps in protecting our computers and other e-devices at endpoints from malicious ransomware, etc. 

It actively eliminates malware and protects the system from any potential damage. 

It is well-performing antivirus software that is absolutely different from traditional threat-combating antivirus tools. 

Conventional antivirus software is often not upgraded enough to fight advanced threats. Check Point Antivirus's performance efficiency is quite good and is highly recommended by peers.

Check Point Antivirus is an advanced antivirus software with high-performance efficiency and is continuously improvising its features and version to have better security enhancements at the end. 

They have a better endpoint catchment rate due to their reliability. It comes quite highly recommended. Everyone recommends it. 

Our organization used to spend a lot on data and system security. The cost of security was increasingly becoming relatively high and unmanageable. Our peers recommended trying the Check Point Solution, which felt great after using it. It is worth having this security software for businesses!

The high malware catchment rate is great and really commendable. The software is equipped with scanning all kinds of sources, email servers, and cloud servers for their endpoint threat and immediately diffuses and eliminates the threat source and threat points. It helps us to improve security scanning and also leads to endpoint management throughout. 

The software provides advanced security features like signature-based malware detection, which is widely used by organizations for scanning their code management and securing their code system end to end.

The other features, like real-time endpoint detection, help us with 24/7 scanning and monitoring of the system for ransomware, and can immediately remove them permanently. 

Everything is just great about the software. That said, a certain reduction in the annual subscription pricing could help many startup organizations like ours. Small, marginal, and medium enterprises could also use a reduced subscription model so as not to pose much burden on budgets. 

Also, the cybersecurity trend is quite dynamic and changes every now and then. It would be really great if continuous upgrades and orientation and training on upgrades could be proactively arranged and organized by concerned officials from time to time.

It's been one year now since I've been using the solution.

It is a very stable software.

The solution is scalable.

Technical support is great.

Positive

We started using Check Point. An earlier in-house-based local solution was used as an antivirus before that.

The initial setup is easy and straightforward.

We implemented the solution through the vendor only.

The ROI looks promising.

The setup cost is significantly lower for Check Point Antivirus. Its pricing is low compared to the majority of the competitors. Licensing is smooth and easy.

We evaluated McAfee, Trend Security, etc., before finalizing the usage of Check Point Antivirus.

It's a must-have security solution for all businesses and professionals as it is an advanced security solution with enough capabilities to improve cybersecurity enhancement for businesses.
