Remote Access Security Reinforced with Real-Time Device Protection
Dashboard customization is needed for improvements. While the centralized management is strong, the dashboard could offer more flexibility. It would be helpful to tailor views for different roles, such as IT or security support. Regarding needed improvements, custom report building could be enhanced. Current reports are informative, and a drag-and-drop builder would allow teams to create tailored views for compliance, executive summaries, or operational metrics. For further improvements, enhancing threat simulation and testing would be valuable. Building a threat simulation tool and adding native capabilities to simulate phishing, malware, or ransomware scenarios will help teams validate protection and train users without relying on third-party tools.

User-friendly solution with good blocking
I mainly use Security Premium as an antivirus.  Security Premium's best features are blocking, notifications, and the user interface. Security Premium's cost could be lower. I've been using Security Premium for a year. Security Premium is stable - I haven't faced any issues or bugs while using…

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Its ease of use is the most valuable feature. We had existing endpoints and it was an easy upgrade process. The interface board is also easy to use."
"This is the best security software for all organizations to have."
"It has a customer-savvy interface and easily customizable as per client and business requirements."
"Check Point Endpoint Security helps us ensure device control and security. It helps us make sure users can access only the network resources they should be accessing and keep malware to a minimum."
"Harmony Endpoint is a complete endpoint security solution built to protect the remote workforce from today’s complex threat landscape, preventing the most imminent threats to the endpoint such as ransomware, phishing or drive-by malware while quickly minimizing breach impact with autonomous detection and response."
"The initial setup is easy."
"With the prevention blade, Harmony scales higher than many other solutions."
"Check Point Harmony Endpoint protects our company by warning us against clicking any malicious links and prevents our hosts from becoming vulnerable to cyber attacks."
"Flexible antivirus and antimalware software. It also provides protection against ransomware. It's flexible, easy to handle, scalable, and stable."
"Norton Security Premium is good, and it's pretty simple to install."
"The ransomware protection that they have now is worth considering."
"We tried a few: Kaspersky, Trend Micro, we used McAfee, we used Norton; we tried them all on our entire fleet of computers, and we realized that in terms of ease of use and resource consumption, Norton is something that is acceptable to us."
"It does not take many resources during scanning."
"The dashboard is good."
"We like how it can check for issues, including files and web browsers, as it is a full-stack solution for antivirus for personal use and it is pretty effective."
"We like how it can check for issues. That includes files and web browsers."
 

Cons

"There needs to be compatibility with the most recent versions of the various operating systems."
"We'd like to see better integration with other security tools."
"There are still functionalities that I have not been able to fully test and I would like to spend more time using the tool before offering an opinion to the IT Central community on this point."
"Check Point should provide some technical sessions on antivirus solutions."
"The integration challenges with Check Point Harmony Endpoint involve needing support with other third-party applications that I wish it worked with more seamlessly."
"Check Point services and antivirus solutions can improve their customer offerings by offering various discounts in their subscription model and they can also reconsider their pricing model as well."
"Two-factor authentication is missing from this solution."
"I would like to see simple sandboxing for malware analysis."
"The only problem with Norton Antivirus is that it consumes a lot of resources like CPU and memory in the background."
"The solution can improve the security modules."
"The product is an antivirus, it should be updated automatically when needed."
"I do not find it to be scalable."
"Sometimes the program is too complex, and simplifying it might be an improvement."
"The product could always be more secure."
"Having a dashboard that shows the different functions of Norton Security Premium can convince end users that the software is more than just an antivirus solution. This product offers several features, but end users think that it's just one out of the box solution, because the different functions are not explained in detail."
"Occasionally when you open a ticket, there's a lack of understanding that prevents the solution from being resolved directly."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Check Point Antivirus is an expensive solution, especially for clients that don't have as many endpoints. Check Point Antivirus has a free trial for one month, and within the trial period, there's no limit to the number of endpoints it can support, but when the trial expires, you'll have to buy the license, which covers one year. You can't buy a license for the solution without being a Check Point partner first."
"The price is good."
"The tool’s cost has increased by almost 300% in two years."
"The licensing cost for Check Point is $3 USD or $4 USD per end-user."
"We implement this solution with a yearly subscription and there are no extra costs."
"Check Point Antivirus is a good solution, but it's a little costly."
"Choosing the correct set of licenses is essential because, without the additional software blade licenses, the Check Point gateways are just a stateful firewall."
"The pricing is reasonable."
"Security Premium costs around US$100 for three years, which is a little expensive."
"The solution gives the value for the money."
"Security Premium is highly-priced."
"The licensing fee for this solution is not expensive."
"We have a yearly license, and each license is around 20 or 30 Jordanian Dinars plus taxes."
"I don't pay for a license."
"Pricing for this software is competitive."
"As I have been a long-time customer, I was given a fair price of $49.95 per month for the first four to six months."
