Great sandboxing and phishing protection with the ability to expand
Pros and Cons
  • "The product improved the overall security of our organization with the features like sandboxing and phishing prevention."
  • "We need a higher maximum file size in the sandboxing feature."

What is our primary use case?

We were searching for a next-generation antivirus solution, and this was the best choice on the market.

We have 25 users who work from home and the office.

All computers have Windows Professional version 10 or 11 installed.

We implemented a policy in which every client (either PC or mobile) has to have the Endpoint protection software installed with all the available blades.

Our company's cyber security monitoring process includes centralized product monitoring. 

How has it helped my organization?

The product improved the overall security of our organization with the features like sandboxing and phishing prevention.

We have centralized monitoring of the security of the clients even if they are not connected to our VPN network.

The e-mail and office solution is a great add-on to our existing Office 365 protection on our company's e-mails.

I also have to mention that we did not have our mobile devices protected before the implementation of Harmony mobile. That was really the next step in securing our company's overall IT security.

What is most valuable?

The sandboxing is good. We didn't have any file ransomware attacks since implementation.

The phishing protection works. It prevented a lot of nasty situations with fake websites.

Using this solution in e-mail and Office, we recognized how many man-in-the-middle attacks have been started to get some credential information from our employees.

In mobile, we didn't realize before how much harm can be done from the mobile devices in the network.

It replaced the ESET solutions we used before in our company.

What needs improvement?

We need a higher maximum file size in the sandboxing feature.

Maybe the exceptions could be made much more understandable and easy to use.

There should be an option added to temporarily disable the protection of all or some blades for testing reasons.

The email and Office solution could have some options for exceptions, for example: don't scan e-mails sent to the local PDF scanner e-mail address.

Maybe an option to auto-upgrade the client version to the next stable release of the client software would be nice.

A tool that offers great functionalities in areas like web protection and threat prevention
Pros and Cons
  • "The most valuable features of the solution are web protection and threat prevention."
  • "A little change in the product's user interface is required since it is one of the areas where the product has certain shortcomings."

What is our primary use case?

When it comes to Check Point Harmony Endpoint, I have not dealt with any of our company's clients yet since I am still in the discovery phase.

What is most valuable?

The most valuable features of the solution are web protection and threat prevention.

What needs improvement?

A little change in the product's user interface is required since it is one of the areas where the product has certain shortcomings. Sometimes the product's page doesn't load at all, and sometimes it does. The position of the tabs and the other stuff on the product page needs to change a little bit.

I think the product's deployment process is much quicker in Mac devices, and it takes a bit more steps for Windows and the area, which needs a bit of improvement so that some balance is created when it comes to the steps in the deployment phase.

Considering last year, the pace at which the technical support team is progressing is a bit slow, making it an area where improvements are required.

For how long have I used the solution?

I have been using Check Point Harmony Endpoint for a year. My company has a partnership with Check Point Harmony Endpoint.

What do I think about the stability of the solution?

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

What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

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

My company mostly caters to the needs of small companies where the solution is used.

How are customer service and support?

I rate the technical support an eight out of ten.

How would you rate customer service and support?

Positive

How was the initial setup?

I rate the product's initial setup phase a ten on a scale of one to ten, where one is a difficult setup phase, and ten is an easy setup process.

The solution is deployed on the cloud.

The solution can be deployed in around ten minutes.

What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?

I recently started to look for the prices of other products in the market and found out that Check Point Harmony Endpoint is cheaper than most of the other available solutions in my country. Price-wise, the product is affordable. There are no additional costs apart from the licensing charges that are attached to the product.

What other advice do I have?

Check Point Harmony Endpoint is a really good endpoint security solution because it comes as a full package. With the solution, there are not many additional costs for add-on features, especially when compared to the costs of the add-ons offered by other solutions in the market.

I rate the solution a ten out of ten.

A stable tool to secure endpoint devices and manage all devices from a centralized portal
Pros and Cons
  • "It is a stable solution. My company has not received any complaints regarding the product's stability from our customers who use the solution."
  • "Check Point needs to work in areas like branding and other value propositions to make products stand out in the market despite the solutions being more affordable than the ones offered by competitors."

What is our primary use case?

I use Check Point Harmony Endpoint in my company to secure the endpoint devices, including computers, servers, and every single endpoint in the environment.

How has it helped my organization?

Check Point Harmony Endpoint offers customers enterprise-level security for all their devices, including servers, laptops, and desktops. The IT personnel can ensure that with the product, all of the devices in an environment are protected with Check Point's enterprise-based solution. The customers who buy the product need not worry about their devices being exposed to threats. In fact, if you check the reports for Check Point in Gartner Magic Quadrant, you will see that the reports are all related to Check Point's endpoint security solutions. Customers try to get information on the value they can derive, along with the other potential prospects in the market, before trying to get or onboard Check Point Harmony Endpoint in their environment.

For IT personnel, Check Point Harmony Endpoint is easy to manage since they don't need to have any expert in order to deploy or monitor devices with the help of the product, and it also allows you to try out different actions on different devices. Whenever there is an attack on any device, Check Point Harmony Endpoint has the capability to isolate the affected device from the environment. Suppose there is an attack on one computer. In that case, the security of the other computers operating in the same environment is compromised, so Check Point Harmony Endpoint isolated the affected computer and notified the required department in the company to look into it while allowing for the other computers to work properly. The product offers good value to the companies that deploy it in their environment.

What is most valuable?

I would have to describe what I feel is valuable in Check Point as a whole. Check Point provides users with a central point from where they can manage all the devices across a workplace. Whether users use Check Point Harmony, Check Point Quantum, or Check Point CloudGuard, they don't have to log into different portals or solutions since they can manage everything from one central point. I like the fact that products from Check Point are very easy to deploy. Even if a user has 1,000 endpoints in an environment, Check Point can take care of the deployment in minutes. Check Point Harmony Endpoint is a very easy solution to deploy and requires very little maintenance or technical expertise.

What needs improvement?

I would like to see improvements in Check Point Harmony Endpoint in general because some people use it since it is available at a competitive price. Due to the competitive pricing strategy of Check Point Harmony Endpoint, it is not considered to be a good product, like Fortinet, Palo Alto, or F5. Check Point Harmony Endpoint needs to consider that people should feel that Check Point doesn't compromise on quality even though the price at which Harmony Endpoint is offered is good. People who claim that Check Point Harmony Endpoint is a cheap product don't necessarily mean that it is not a good solution. Fortinet is a very expensive product that offers good value to its customers. If Check Point can work on the value proposition it offers to customers and make them understand that even though the solution is affordable, it is not a bad solution compared to its competitors, then it would be fantastic. The potential customers can opt for Check Point products, considering that they are offered good products at the cheapest price in its categories. It is important for Check Point to ensure that people don't have a wrong perception about the products it has launched in the market.

I don't think there are any features I would like to include, and the tool offers updates when compared with the products from competitors, which I think is a good way to do it. The only challenge is that for many organizations where there is an MDM solution in the environment and an endpoint security tool, my company needs to educate such organizations to convey the message that endpoint and MDM solutions are different products for different purposes, so they are not the same. If Check Point Harmony Endpoint can incorporate MDM into the solution, it can be a fantastic enhancement. Customers need not buy endpoint and MDM solutions if both are made available together in Check Point Harmony Endpoint. My company will have to put extra effort into educating the customers and making them understand the two different solutions. MDM is used to manage your mobile devices, and Check Point Harmony Endpoint is the security for your endpoints.

For how long have I used the solution?

I have been using Check Point Harmony Endpoint for over three years.

What do I think about the stability of the solution?

It is a stable solution. My company has not received any complaints regarding the product's stability from our customers who use the solution.

What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

It is a very scalable solution.

How are customer service and support?

My company had to contact Check Point's technical team for the installations that my company carried out when we had to deal with around 40 devices that had firewalls from Check Point, which had reached the end of life. For Check Point Harmony Endpoint, my company never had any reason to contact Check Point's technical team.

Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?

Starting with the pros, I would say that Check Point Harmony Endpoint provides value for money. After purchasing Check Point Harmony Endpoint, you need to consider the fact that the cost you pay for the solution and the value you derive from the product is very proportional. When it comes to Check Point Harmony Endpoint, I can say that a user does not pay high prices for a poor solution. A user pays a decent fee for a very good product. I think the first pro is that the value you get from the solution is made available at a very competitive price. The product is seamless and easy to use. With the centralized portal, a user can manage all Check Point products, including Check Point Harmony, Check Point Quantum, or Check Point CloudGuard, from a single point, which is also a fantastic pro for Check Point. Regarding the cons of the solution, I would say that it stems from people's perception of the solution since they feel that an affordable product may not be good enough. There is a need to work around people's wrong perception of Check Point products. Still, I don't know if such a negative perception is something that is widespread across the globe or whether it is exclusive to Nigeria or the markets in Africa. Check Point needs to work in areas like branding and other value propositions to make products stand out in the market despite the solutions being more affordable than the ones offered by competitors.

How was the initial setup?

The product's initial setup phase was straightforward. The product's deployment was done in minutes, so it didn't take long, as there was no need to do any special configurations. There was no need for the people involved in the deployment to have any special skills. The deployment process was seamless and straightforward. The product's deployment was never an issue. The IT department need not worry too much about whether they need to learn new skills to manage the product as it is easy to use and deploy and a product that can be used seamlessly. The product's deployment takes around 30 to 40 minutes.

I work with the solution's SaaS version.

What other advice do I have?

I don't think Check Point Harmony Endpoint is difficult to maintain. I think there is a possibility of scheduling your updates in Check Point Harmony Endpoint, even if you want it to happen outside your working hours, like somewhere between eight o'clock in the evening and midnight. I don't think maintenance is stressful because it can be scheduled outside of working hours.

I would recommend others to use the product since the deployment process is seamless, so you don't need any specialized skills to use the portal provided by Check Point to monitor your devices. There are no specialized skills required to support or maintain the solution. It is also very easy to implement the product. You can keep a tab using the centralized portal offered by the product. In general, the product makes the life of the IT department easier since you need not worry about a lot of the technical stuff related to the solution.

From my point of view, I need to put in extra effort to convince my company's customers to use the solution. In terms of the features and the product's ability to deliver the promised value to its customers, especially when compared to other solutions in the market, I rate the overall product an eight out of ten.

Enhances our organization's cybersecurity posture with its comprehensive set of features
Pros and Cons
  • "The Management interface of the product is relatively user-friendly and easy to navigate."

    What is our primary use case?

    Our primary use case is to enhance the organization's security posture against attacks like phishing, and malware especially zero-day threats, with low false positives. The product must be able to integrate with the existing infrastructure with relative ease. 

    We need detailed reporting and forensics analysis tools for incident response, and the management console must be user-friendly.

    We need to improve operational efficiencies in managing endpoints and thousands of users, given the increasing number of remote workforce. There should be minimal impact on endpoints.

    How has it helped my organization?

    The management interface of the product is relatively user-friendly and easy to navigate.

    The product manages to block most zero-day attacks and unknown threats in real-time, thus reducing the manual overhead by being the first layer of protection against unknown attacks, easing the workload on the monitoring team, and enabling the team to focus on other tasks simultaneously.

    Overall, the product enhances our organization's cybersecurity posture with its comprehensive set of features, supported by a leaner monitoring team.

    What is most valuable?

    The product is quite easy to configure and can be deployed in under half an hour.

    It has a centralised management console, single panel to triage, escalate, mitigate and respond.

    The agent is lightweight on the endpoints and operates seamlessly in the background with minimal impact on the performance of the endpoints.

    It has features like firewalling, removable device control, VPN, app control, DLP, file sandboxing, ransomware protection. which can be turned on or off per endpoint, groups, employees.

    What needs improvement?

    It should reduce CPU and memory usage. Its technical support could be more timely though it is still acceptable.

    It is painful to get deep informational logs to be exported to a SIEM as Check Point requires a user to use its tooling Horizon.

    At times, it repeatedly scans the same files without any effective results.

    It lacks granular management and configuration.

    Additionally, users may encounter challenges with the product's components not performing as anticipated, necessitating the manual addition of exclusions across various areas.

    For how long have I used the solution?

    We have been using Check Point Harmony Endpoint for less than three months.

    What do I think about the stability of the solution?

    The stability is acceptable.

    What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

    The scalability is okay.

    How are customer service and support?

    The support could be faster.

    How would you rate customer service and support?

    Neutral

    How was the initial setup?

    The setup could be done in less than 30 minutes.

    What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?

    The licensing is pricy, so weigh the pros and cons.

    Which other solutions did I evaluate?

    We looked at CrowdStrike and Palo Alto.

    Great value for money, easy to deploy, and is great at detecting threats
    Pros and Cons
    • "One of the strengths of Harmony is its power to detect threats and keep us safe."
    • "I still don't have a clear opinion of the possible improvements that the tool may need. There are still functionalities that I have not been able to try completely and I would like to spend more time using the tool before offering an opinion to the IT Central community on this point."

    What is our primary use case?

    In my organization, we have deployed the Harmony Endpoint Check Point tool with the idea of being able to secure the deployed part of our mobile corporate devices in order to start the security processes at the point as close to the user as possible. 

    Using its ease of deployment capacity and its power in detecting malware or insecure elements, this tool provides us with the peace of mind we were looking for in an environment of several thousand terminals deployed on the network in many places and environments.

    How has it helped my organization?

    By using the Check Point Harmony Endpoint tool we have improved our network visibility, have extensive control of our network and our users, and, above all, have a level of security against cyber attacks that we did not have before. 

    Now, we are able to detect and avoid security breaks. We can better understand the use that our users make of the devices, and, most importantly, we can apply security policies that keep our users safe as well as the organization's own systems and data. The personal information of our users is also secure.

    What is most valuable?

    Right away, we noticed when using Check Point's Harmony Endpoint tool, was the ease of deployment. In our case, it was deployed without too many difficulties, considering the deployment involved several tens of thousands of devices. 

    Once deployed, the dashboard and all the inventory information that we had been able to obtain and that we did not know about before proved to be very interesting. 

    One of the strengths of Harmony is its power to detect threats and keep us safe. Also the ability to apply policies specifically to users or groups is very useful.

    What needs improvement?

    I still don't have a clear opinion of the possible improvements that the tool may need. There are still functionalities that I have not been able to try completely and I would like to spend more time using the tool before offering an opinion to the IT Central community on this point. 

    Something that is very important to me is the remediation or recovery capabilities after an attack. From what I have seen so far, this tool maintains the quality line of Check Point products and is always ahead of the needs of the market.

    For how long have I used the solution?

    I've used the solution for seven months.

    Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?

    This was the first endpoint tool we use in my organization. We didn't use anything previously.

    What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?

    The only thing I don't like about the solution is the time to pay for the licenses. That said, I really believe that it is a fair price according to the quality of the product offered.

    Which other solutions did I evaluate?

    What other advice do I have?

    After analyzing and comparing other solutions, we determine that Harmony has the best value for money.

    Offers ease of deploying and removing features to users
    Pros and Cons
    • "The installation is really flawless. It is easy to install."
    • "The drawback associated with the product is related to macOS since some features in it don't work."

    What is our primary use case?

    I use the solution in my company as an antivirus tool for port protection, media encryption, and hard disk encryption. There are many features for threat prevention, anti-fraud, anti-malware, threat detection, sandboxing, threat emulation, and threat hunting. These are some features based on the product licenses.

    What needs improvement?

    The drawback associated with the product is related to macOS since some features in it don't work. Some features sometimes do not work at all, and at times, they lag. When you install Check Point Harmony Endpoint, the system lags in between because it is a heavy agent. When you try to deploy some of the features you can deploy, like anti-malware and anti-ransomware, during which your system may sometimes get stuck.

    For how long have I used the solution?

    I have been using Check Point Harmony Endpoint for two years. My company is a reseller of the solution. My organization is a distributor reselling Check Point, and we also provide guidance on how to implement, use, and explain the features with the help of the PoC implementation phase.

    What do I think about the stability of the solution?

    I have not seen any glitches or bugs in the product. The product is stable in general.

    Overall, the tool is stable.

    What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

    You can increase or decrease some features with the help of the policies in the tool. It is very easy to deploy the feature, and you can remove and disable some features. It is very easy.

    How are customer service and support?

    The solution's technical support is smooth. I rate the technical support an eight and a half to nine out of ten.

    How would you rate customer service and support?

    Positive

    Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?

    I have experience with Symantec and Trend Micro. Symantec has pros and cons, including that sometimes some features don't work. In Check Point Harmony Endpoint, all the features are working, and it is really easy to use. I haven't used much of Trend Micro, but I know it is removed and replaced by Check Point Harmony Endpoint nowadays.

    How was the initial setup?

    The installation is really flawless. It is easy to install.

    Only one administrator is needed to install the system.

    No maintenance is required. There is no need to invest in maintenance time or no downtime. You need to restart the system, download the agent, and install it on your particular system. You can deploy the policies also.

    What was our ROI?

    The tool helps with cost savings. Compared to other products, it offers cost-saving benefits and is easy to maintain. It is really feasible to work with, or it is really cost-effective for industrial purposes.

    What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?

    There are three licenses. One is the basic license, which only gives you threat prevention. In the second one, you will get port protection. In the complete license, you will get all the licenses, like anti-malware, sandboxing, port protection, and all the licenses. It is very easy to deploy the tool.

    What other advice do I have?

    The integration capabilities are very easy to install. We just need to deploy them after the download process for our requirements. Deploying the systems takes only five minutes. We can deploy them via the ADE Server.

    The tool has some AI and ML-based integration, and it offers features like ThreatCloud AI. ThreadCloud AI is installed, so you can just only deploy the soluton.

    I found Check Point Harmony Endpoint's deployment to be easier than implementation procedures for other solutions.

    I rate the tool a nine out of ten.

    Offers in-built EDR capabilities to provide better visibility of threats
    Pros and Cons
    • "Compared to its competitors, Check Point Harmony Endpoint has advantages in areas like EDR and behavioral detection."
    • "The response from the tool's support team, which starts with L1, is something my company doesn't find helpful, especially when compared to the other solutions that we use."

    What is our primary use case?

    I use the solution in my company, and it is usually deployed on all our endpoint solutions, which include workstations and servers.

    What is most valuable?

    I think the overall product is good. There is an in-built EDR in the tool, which is good because it gives users visibility into the threats coming into the environment.

    What needs improvement?

    The support from the vendor itself is the tool's weakness because we don't get good support from the vendor. The response from the tool's support team, which starts with L1, is something my company doesn't find helpful, especially when compared to the other solutions that we use. The support is one of the major issues with Check Point Harmony Endpoint.

    Apart from the support area, everything else is good in the tool.

    The tool's performance sometimes slows down the system, and I think the module itself is very heavy on the endpoints, making it an area that can be improved. In our company, we have seen Trend Micro and other solutions that have very light agents, so they do not affect the performance of the endpoints.

    For how long have I used the solution?

    I have been using Check Point Harmony Endpoint for three years. I use a standard version.

    What do I think about the stability of the solution?

    Stability-wise, I rate the solution a seven or eight out of ten.

    What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

    The tool's scalability is good. Scalability-wise, I rate the solution a seven to eight out of ten.

    My company has around 800 licenses for the product, and I think we have a couple of administrators who are or are less good and capable of managing the solution.

    My company does not plan to increase the use of the solution in the future because we have reached its maximum capacity. Even if we try to increase the capacity of the product in our company, then I don't believe that it would go beyond five to ten percent.

    How are customer service and support?

    I rate the technical support not more than four or five out of ten.

    How would you rate customer service and support?

    Neutral

    Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?

    I have worked with Symantec, Trend Micro, and Sophos.

    What was our ROI?

    My company has reached a point where it has experienced a return on investment from the use of the product.

    What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?

    The product is averagely priced. The product price is neither very high nor too low. The tool is not really expensive.

    Which other solutions did I evaluate?

    Compared to its competitors, Check Point Harmony Endpoint has advantages in areas like EDR and behavioral detection. Lately, all the solutions have improved. I think that now there are a number of solutions that come with SIEM capabilities, while in the past, around three years ago, Check Point was leading in the aforementioned area. More or less, all the products that can be compared with each other are the same if I consider the peer-to-peer node part.

    What other advice do I have?

    Two or three years ago, I would have recommended the product to others, but nowadays, there are other solutions with good capabilities that are better than Check Point. I wouldn't recommend the tool to anyone now because I have seen much better solutions lately, and the market is also changing and becoming very dynamic.

    Check Point Harmony Endpoint should learn from its competitors how to improve its agent capabilities and have a lightweight agent to provide good support. Also, some real-time detection and behavioral security checks are still missing and need to be improved.

    I rate the overall tool an eight out of ten.
