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

"Check Point Harmony Endpoint has one of the most user-friendly dashboards I've seen."
"It is an all-in-one solution for peace of mind."
"This solution helps make sure that we can patch and keep security going without having to talk to everyone for change management."
"What I really appreciate about Check Point Harmony Endpoint is its integration with ThreatCloud AI, which is connected to more than 50 million endpoints globally and includes Harmony Browse, Next Generation Firewall, and CloudGuard."
"The Check Point SandBlast solution, also known as Harmony Endpoint, is able to detect, block, monitor, and respond to any malicious activity that happens on the endpoint."
"Check Point Endpoint Security really helped the business stop various malware attacks throughout the time we used it, including a ransomware attack, which was stopped in minutes."
"The traditional anti-malware engine is valuable."
"In many ways, it made us feel safe."
"Norton Security Premium is good, and it's pretty simple to install."
"The most valuable feature is the quick installation."
"It does not take many resources during scanning."
"I'm convinced that Symantec and Norton are the leaders, they know what they are doing, they cover all functionalities of spam, virus, and malware protection, etc."
"The internet security was a plus, and it's pretty good."
"The licensing fee for this solution is not expensive."
"Security Premium's best features are blocking, notifications, and the user interface."
"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."
 

Cons

"The interface could be more user-friendly."
"I would recommend Microsoft Defender for Endpoint over this solution."
"The interface can feel complex at times; a simplified navigation would make daily use easier."
"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."
"One area that requires improvement is the amount of audit logs the system can save, as it is currently limited to fourteen days."
"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 agent's size is very heavy, so it could be reduced to a lighter version for Check Point Harmony Endpoint."
"While using Check Point Harmony Endpoint, I find that the initial deployment can be a bit complex, especially for large or distributed environments, requiring proper planning and familiarity with the Check Point ecosystem."
"Occasionally when you open a ticket, there's a lack of understanding that prevents the solution from being resolved directly."
"Sometimes the program is too complex, and simplifying it might be an improvement."
"It would be helpful for me if this solution works on our cloud backup data."
"The only problem with Norton Antivirus is that it consumes a lot of resources like CPU and memory in the background."
"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."
"I do not find it to be scalable."
"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."
"The product could always be more secure."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Check Point Harmony Endpoint is cost effective."
"The licensing cost for Check Point is $3 USD or $4 USD per end-user."
"The tool’s cost has increased by almost 300% in two years."
"In comparison to other software solutions available on the market, it comes at a higher price point."
"Check Point Antivirus is the most economical solution."
"Check Point Harmony Endpoint's pricing is more competitive than any other vendor."
"I rate the solution's pricing a five out of ten. It costs around ₱2,200 per endpoint."
"One of the key factors that made us go with this solution was the pricing. On the licensing part, there was an initial complementary set of licenses offered in the initial onboarding package, either 15 or 20. Then, we had some complementary licenses in the initial purchase of the package. That was pretty useful."
"Security Premium is highly-priced."
"Security Premium costs around US$100 for three years, which is a little expensive."
"I don't pay for a license."
"The licensing fee for this solution is not expensive."
"The solution gives the value for the money."
"We have a yearly license, and each license is around 20 or 30 Jordanian Dinars plus taxes."
"If they could come down in price that would be good. It's not exactly the lowest."
"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."
