CLAUDIO SANTOS - PeerSpot reviewer
Provides browser protection and has an easy deployment
You only need to create one policy in Microsoft Active Directory. This policy can be applied to all workstations and will manage access using your credentials across the network. The implementation depends on the number of employees. For smaller organizations with 100 to 400 employees, it's straightforward and quick. The process becomes more complex for larger organizations with 3,000 to 6,000 employees.
Harsha Ramamurthy - PeerSpot reviewer
Provides flexibility for remote work and offers good performance
My company has a product servicing team of 12 people, consisting of network engineers who call themselves network support, and the other teams in my company refer to them as the setup servicing team. Though not all of them manage Google, some of them do it when required. In terms of the manageability benefits offered by the product to my company's team, I would say that there was not much of a learning curve involved when we migrated from Microsoft to Google around two years ago, and it was pretty easy to integrate. I have not utilized Google Chrome's flexibility for remote work. The solution has some good points in terms of scalability and ease of use. However, my company doesn't like the UX component of the product, and it is also one of the reasons why we miss Microsoft Teams. I can recommend the product to others after considering their needs. If a user has more money to invest, they should choose Microsoft. I rate the tool an eight out of ten.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"It analyzes and verifies in detail how secure or insecure a file, document, or object is that is being downloaded."
"It gives our customers a sense of security they might not have found anywhere else."
"Among its most important features is the integration of its analytics."
"This tool installs a very small agent in browsers. It does not cause performance problems on the host computer, which makes it less annoying for users."
"Its content filtering is great."
"The software is easy to install and deploy across any business environment and it is becoming a game changer for us."
"All the features of Harmony Browse improve the security of an organization."
"Check Point Harmony Browse has a feature that allows users to check the extensions installed in their browser. This feature is valuable because hackers may install malicious extensions on a target computer without the user's knowledge. When browsing, users are often less aware of the extensions installed in their browsers, making it easier for malicious extensions to go unnoticed. By providing visibility into installed extensions, Check Point Harmony Browse enhances security by allowing users to identify and remove potentially harmful extensions."
"The solution's most valuable feature is its browser, which offers good performance."
"The solution is easy to use."
"We use the product to run applications and devices."
"This solution is user-friendly with security features detecting if there is suspicious activity on the browser. There is a lot of extensions we can use to provide us with good coverage."
"Google Chrome's reliability is a valuable feature, providing consistent and comprehensive search results."
"The initial setup is straightforward."
"Stability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten."
"Google Sheets and Google Docs are the most valuable features of the solution."
 

Cons

"By default, on Harmony Browse there is no URL group which is commonly blocked worldwide."
"The URL filtering database should be improved."
"security solution for users Devices and Access" What is our primary use case? The application is good as its lightweight and its functions are really similar to a browser extension. It offers real-time protection for internet users by addressing active concerns. Moreover, it incorporates a reputation feature to ensure swift access to websites within a second. The effectiveness of Harmony Browse’s capabilities is really an advantage. What is most valuable? The installation process is simple. Once initiated, the process is quite straightforward and seamless, making it easy to complete. What needs improvement? Regarding the Harmony Browse, I call it "Kuna" which is accurate. The quantum product serves as my primary focus due to its project cost, and I aim to introduce support in this area. This is because firewall implementation holds significant importance for organizations. I want to improve more on the quantum losses. There's a concept I'd like to include in Harmony Browse, known as automatic catching. This mechanism comes into play when an individual closes their browser while possessing sensitive information, like monetary data. To counteract potential risks, we employ a browser cache-clearing process to minimize the cache's accumulation. This action ensures that malicious entities can't exploit the cached data for attacks. To enhance this further, there's potential for the implementation of a self-cleaning technology. For instance, when a user exits the browser, an automatic action could be initiated to clear the browser cache, serving as an additional layer of security. This can be helpful if added."
"The solution needs greater automation to reduce the need for manual configuration and management."
"A slight reduction in the cost subscription model can prove to be a game changer."
"One of the new features I would like to see is the possibility that these tools can be brought to mobile devices such as tablets and cell phones in iOS or Android applications."
"It seems to us that the performance in some opportunities of Check Point Infinity and the administration web portal is slow."
"The documentation of the most current applications is sometimes not so clear, and it is difficult to understand."
"There is a need for improved features to refine search results and narrow them down efficiently."
"Chromebooks are hard to find in the Indonesian market."
"The product's stability can be better."
"The product must improve its speed."
"It's a bit bulky. If we have a laptop with basic configuration, it eats up a lot of RAM and slows down the system."
"Additional data security and data privacy features could be proactively recommended by Google."
"Identifying areas for improvement can be challenging since Chrome consistently strives to enhance itself. One aspect I'd like to highlight is virtualization. For instance, if you require desktop-based applications like Cisco or Adobe products on your local machine, Chrome's support is limited. While they offer Linux solutions for virtualization, my query or request would be to expand this to include Windows-based applications. If this were implemented, it would be a valuable enhancement, encouraging broader adoption by companies."
"The solution could be made cheaper."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The product has a reasonable pricing."
"The price is not very expensive for our organisation, but for others, it might be a little expensive."
"We are on a monthly subscription for this solution."
"Pricing varies significantly based on different regions and specific requirements. The cost can differ for the Euro price as opposed to the Asia-specific price. Generally, the standard pricing falls within the range of twenty-five to thirty dollars per license. This payment can be structured on a monthly or yearly basis. Opting for the yearly payment plan often comes with an added discount, either directly from Google or through negotiations with your vendor."
"The product price is very good in my opinion."
"So all I can say is just for us since we just recently re-upped our three-year contract for Google Education Enterprise, whatever the name is for their highest level enterprise...I found the pricing to be pretty reasonable overall."
"Yearly payments are to be made towards the licensing costs of Google Chrome Enterprise. It is not an expensive solution. I rate the solution's pricing model a six out of ten. There is a need to pay an extra cost in addition to the solution's standard licensing fees."
"Google Chrome Enterprise is a medium-priced solution."
