Excellent anti-ransomware protection, zero-day phishing protection, and web browsing filtering
We used to use other security solutions (Windows Defender and Kaspersky), however, we had security incidents that affected us (viruses and ransomware) and they were very difficult to identify or when we did identify them it was already a long time after the incident occurred and we did not know the cause and therefore affected the operability of our company considerably. Since we made the decision to move to Check Point Harmony we have had greater visibility of everything that happens on our devices and take a preventive approach rather than a reactive strategy, in addition to being more confident that we have Check Point protecting us.

Easy to setup, stable and good security use cases
I primarily use this solution for security.  I appreciate the good control it offers, which simplifies management. So, I feel confident using this solution. We need a more complete Mobile Device Management (MDM) system. I have been using Kaspersky for eight years. I use the latest version.  I…

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"One of the coolest features is that it provides an HTML report on the laptop and the endpoint console for the administrator."
"The end-user facilities for managing the tool are good."
"The zero-day threat prevention is excellent."
"It provides remote access for the staff and increases their productivity."
"It is quite easy to use and deploy the agent on endpoints to protect them from bad actors."
"The product is stable."
"Stability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten."
"Scalability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten."
"It has a very good firewall, which lets you isolate your devices depending on the groups."
"Kaspersky Enterprise solution's combined protections have helped to block a lot of malware which would have caused a lot of interruptions in our operations."
"The interface is friendly."
"It performs quite well as a firewall protection provider."
"The solution is very easy to use. It's an extremely user-friendly product."
"The product can scale if you need it to."
"One of the most valuable features is that it's quite secure. I'm satisfied with this solution."
"It provides good security."
 

Cons

"The solution can be made lightweight in order to keep the systems more effective during the background operations of the scanning and security checks."
"In terms of improvement, the ticketing system could be better. It is a little tricky to try to open a case and give it to an engineer."
"An additional feature I would like to see involves the VPN."
"They could improve memory consumption."
"I would like to see them add features where we can use this license for mobile browsers, too."
"Enhanced behavioral analytics would provide a deeper understanding of endpoint activities, fortifying our defenses against sophisticated cyber adversaries."
"Infinity Portal sometimes requires more performance."
"There should be some way of managing this solution outside the organization's network, possibly with some type of remote access. For example, if I'm the admin of Check Point who manages the entire network, I would like to have access on my home device or maybe a mobile app to get reports, etc."
"The solution sometimes slows down the computers of our clients, the performance needs to improve."
"There are many improvements needed, such as faster responses, faster notification, and immediate reports."
"It would be great if, as an additional feature, you could download updates without deploying updates to end users."
"We are having some troubles because some American companies we work with don't want to work with Kaspersky."
"They're restricted to endpoint protection for now, I'd like to see some additional products."
"I might have the best product in the market. But if it's not properly configured, then I'm losing many of these features. I'm not getting the most out of them. And this is actually one of the biggest challenges that we're facing."
"Kaspersky Endpoint Security for Business’s interface could be easier to understand when displaying the activities during configuration processes."
"The reporting portion of the solution is quite weak."

"We pay on an annual basis. There are no additional fees, they mostly tell us what we have to pay. We have budgeted for it."

"We pay a yearly annual subscription for this product."
"I think the price of this solution is good."
"It's a little more expensive compared to other competitors like Symantec."
