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

"The application runs very fast and does not affect the performance speed of the device where it is installed."
"Endpoint protection is valuable. Stability is good, and the product is well-designed for security needs."
"At the moment we are very satisfied and confident with Check Point."
"One of the strengths of Harmony is its power to detect threats and keep us safe."
"SandBlast was able to catch it, stop it, and change the files back, and we then got a forensics report to determine what happened with it."
"After using Check Point Harmony Endpoint, we saw a 40% reduction in security incidents, especially phishing and malware attacks, and the response times to threats improved by around 30%, thanks to the faster alerts and automation."
"Threat detection intelligence and high customization facilitation is the most popular aspect for customers and users."
"The license plans are also very nice and distributed - allowing for a separation between types of users with more basic or more advanced options."
"We like how it can check for issues. That includes files and web browsers."
"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."
"The internet security was a plus, and it's pretty 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."
"With the heightened security around phishing, identity theft, and malware, this is a good product."
"Norton Security Premium is good, and it's pretty simple to install."
"The antivirus aspect of the solution is very good, and the support we receive from Norton is excellent."
"When I'm using the solution in my personal space, I can see that it secures my laptop, it works fast, and it actually does what I want."
 

Cons

"It's not easy to investigate an incident that you find in the company. Users often face trouble when downloading files, so it is very slow in terms of how it works."
"The interface can feel complex at times; a simplified navigation would make daily use easier."
"They must focus on performance and efficiency since this tool sometimes consumes many machine resources and leads to machine performance problems."
"Sometimes, with a lot of clients (1,000) the UI is a bit sluggish."
"Unfortunately, the web (cloud) management system and log search performance are quite bad."
"The web filter service could be improved."
"We have observed some policies are not working as expected."
"Legacy VPNs and digital footprints should be minimized."
"It would be helpful for me if this solution works on our cloud backup data."
"Occasionally when you open a ticket, there's a lack of understanding that prevents the solution from being resolved directly."
"Security Premium's cost could be lower."
"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 only problem with Norton Antivirus is that it consumes a lot of resources like CPU and memory in the background."
"During scanning, sometimes, there is a heavy load on the workstation. This needs to be improved."
"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 solution can improve the security modules."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The solution is too pricey."
"In terms of licensing, have a buffer zone around your projects in terms of the amount of endpoints that you want to have. You can always have more, but it is best to leave room for a little increase or growth."
"I rate the product price a four on a scale of one to ten, where one is low, and ten is high."
"Check Point Antivirus is the most economical solution."
"We are paying 2,50,000 Sri Lankan Rupees annually which is the fixed charge."
"The price of Check Point Harmony Endpoint is comparable to SonicWall. The price could be a bit lower."
"The cost is huge compared to other products that are available on market."
"We pay roughly 80,000 Swedish krona per year. When it comes to the firewall, it's roughly 150,000 Swedish krona yearly. There's also maintenance, of course, which is roughly 10,000 krona per month."
"Pricing for this software is competitive."
"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."
"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."
"If they could come down in price that would be good. It's not exactly the lowest."
"We have a yearly license, and each license is around 20 or 30 Jordanian Dinars plus taxes."
"I don't pay for a license."
