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 positively impacted our organization, and the ROI has been great."
"This antivirus has powerful security features that online threats cannot compromise."
"Check Point Antivirus is a cost-effective security solution for businesses and that's why its acceptability by various other fields and organizations is humongous."
"Check Point Harmony Endpoint's best feature is SandBlast Zero-Day Protection because it uses advanced sandboxing and threat emulation to stop unknown threats before they execute, which is especially effective against ransomware and targeted attacks."
"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."
"After implementing the Check Point SandBlast Agent system, we have benefited from getting a strong security system that gives us stability and security on our internal network."
"Harmony is better than Crowd Strike or any other similar solution in that class."
"The graphical interface is very easy to use and intuitive, which greatly facilitates the work and greatly facilitates the work and the location of threats on the users' computers."
"In general, technical support has been helpful."
"We like how it can check for issues. That includes files and web browsers."
"The licensing fee for this solution is not expensive."
"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."
"Protects me from internet vulnerability."
"The product is called Norton 360 all-in-one. It is a full product."
"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."
"Security Premium's best features are blocking, notifications, and the user interface."
 

Cons

"The application control and URL filtering features are not very strong."
"Support's service and the response times can be improved. The triaging of the tickets takes a long time and the tickets are only resolved with escalations."
"Check Point Harmony Endpoint's GUI is old. It needs to have a modern dashboard for logging activities. Compared to other products, the solution is slow in terms of deep scanning."
"Sometimes the antivirus updates fail. We don't understand why because sometimes it fails but the next time you try it goes well and the firewall always has access to the internet. We don't understand why it sometimes fails."
"One area that requires improvement is the amount of audit logs the system can save, as it is currently limited to fourteen days."
"The next release should consider a strong threat detection mechanism that can categorize various levels of attacks for faster analysis."
"Two-factor authentication is missing from this solution."
"One thing I can suggest for Check Point Harmony Endpoint is that the endpoint agent is very heavy, and sometimes it feels like due to the heavy endpoint size, our PC is slow, so that can be improved."
"Security Premium's cost could be lower."
"I don't like the password manager of Norton Security Premium. I really dislike it."
"The product is an antivirus, it should be updated automatically when needed."
"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."
"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."
"During scanning, sometimes, there is a heavy load on the workstation. This needs to be improved."
"The solution can improve the security modules."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The price is good."
"I rate the product price a four on a scale of one to ten, where one is low, and ten is high."
"We are paying 2,50,000 Sri Lankan Rupees annually which is the fixed charge."
"Choosing the correct set of licenses is essential because, without the additional software blade licenses, the Check Point gateways are just a stateful firewall."
"Price-wise, the product is affordable. There are no additional costs apart from the licensing charges that are attached to the product."
"The solution is too pricey."
"Check Point Harmony Endpoint's pricing is more competitive than any other vendor."
"The tool’s cost has increased by almost 300% in two years."
"Pricing for this software is competitive."
"We have a yearly license, and each license is around 20 or 30 Jordanian Dinars plus taxes."
"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."
"The licensing fee for this solution is not expensive."
"Security Premium is highly-priced."
"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."
