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

"My customers choose Check Point Harmony Endpoint because deployment is easier and because it's cost effective and more secure."
"The overall features and data loss prevention makes it a valuable product in every way."
"In terms of network usage, it actually reduced the amount of malicious attacks that we had. Before, we really didn't have a secure network. Each endpoint had to protect itself and probably most of them were not actually protected. Now, it's an entire process in which we've been able to cut down significantly the amount of malicious attacks by 60 percent that we get in the organization. It helps us to adequately monitor what has been going on with our network traffic and stopping individual attacks from accessing certain sites where we want to have restrictions or limitations."
"From the administrative side, it is easy to manipulate and control, and that makes it great."
"The end-user facilities for managing the tool are good."
"The best features of Check Point Harmony Endpoint that stand out the most for me include the anti-ransomware protection, which detects abnormal encryption behavior, stops it instantly, and restores affected files, preventing downtime for the users."
"The virus detection models orchestrate real-time monitoring of data with reliable reporting information."
"We find the zero-day protection to be an extremely valuable feature of this solution."
"The dashboard is good."
"It does not take many resources during scanning."
"The most valuable feature is the quick installation."
"With the heightened security around phishing, identity theft, and malware, this is a good product."
"The licensing fee for this solution is not expensive."
"The ransomware protection that they have now is worth considering."
"The most valuable feature is the multifunctional protection."
"We like how it can check for issues. That includes files and web browsers."
 

Cons

"Check Point Harmony Endpoint could improve by allowing it to work on older systems by reducing the system requirements. Since our systems are dated we can only use the antivirus module features."
"I think Check Point Harmony Endpoint could be improved, as the documentation is not intuitive."
"To improve Check Point Harmony Endpoint, I believe the DLP feature needs enhancement because many SMB customers seek a single solution that includes both EDR and DLP to meet regulations."
"The next release can focus more on timely upgrades to enhance computing compatibility."
"The product should improve its pricing."
"It's very basic from what I see. It's not a full MDM solution and it's restricted with other MDM provisions."
"Check Point Harmony Endpoint can be improved by having the capability to integrate with other solutions, as no one has the complete Check Point solution, so integration with other OEMs would be beneficial."
"The product may take some time to navigate at first but apart from that the log ingesting and working on getting a client installed may take some time."
"The only problem with Norton Antivirus is that it consumes a lot of resources like CPU and memory in the background. Whenever it's scanning, my laptop becomes very slow, and the worst part is you cannot do anything about it. As this product is secured by my local IT team, you cannot even kill that process, and that's what I've felt about many other antivirus solutions. I'm using McAfee for personal use, and I have the same problem."
"As far as improvement to the product, perhaps the price could be better."
"Sometimes the program is too complex, and simplifying it might be an improvement."
"Security Premium's cost could be lower."
"They say Norton Security Premium is an all-in-one solution, but we don't know exactly what's in it, e.g. they didn't make an effort to explain the difference between a virus scan and a ransomware scan."
"The product is an antivirus, it should be updated automatically when needed."
"It would be helpful for me if this solution works on our cloud backup data."
"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."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"I rate the solution's pricing a five out of ten. It costs around ₱2,200 per endpoint."
"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 price is good."
"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."
"The solution is reasonable, but there are cheaper solutions out there."
"The licensing cost for Check Point is $3 USD or $4 USD per end-user."
"Check Point Antivirus is a good solution, but it's a little costly."
"I bought them for 12 months and I genuinely cannot remember what I paid for them. I think it's about 100 pounds per user per year, so about 10 pounds a month per person."
"I don't pay for a license."
"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."
"The solution gives the value for the money."
"Security Premium is highly-priced."
"Security Premium costs around US$100 for three years, which is a little expensive."
"If they could come down in price that would be good. It's not exactly the lowest."
"Pricing for this software is competitive."
"We have a yearly license, and each license is around 20 or 30 Jordanian Dinars plus taxes."
