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

"What stands out to me most about the best features Check Point Harmony Endpoint offers are the data cost management features and strong policy that empowers user devices with central management and visibility."
"The standout features are primarily EDR and MDR."
"Compared to its competitors, Check Point Harmony Endpoint has advantages in areas like EDR and behavioral detection."
"Harmony is better than Crowd Strike or any other similar solution in that class."
"It is an all-in-one solution for peace of mind."
"Stability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten."
"We can map the MITRE attack framework along with the Cyber Kill Chain completely."
"The real-time threat detection in Check Point Harmony Endpoint helped us catch a ransomware attack early; a user downloaded a file from a spoofed site, and Check Point Harmony Endpoint immediately flagged it, quarantined the file, and alerted our support team, preventing the malware from spreading and saving us from a large downtime."
"The internet security was a plus, and it's pretty good."
"In general, technical support has been helpful."
"Protects me from internet vulnerability."
"It does not take many resources during scanning."
"The product is called Norton 360 all-in-one. It is a full product."
"Security Premium's best features are blocking, notifications, and the user interface."
"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."
"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."
 

Cons

"There is no real scalability."
"What's missing in Check Point Antivirus is the EDL feature."
"They could improve memory consumption."
"From an improvement perspective, the major challenge we've faced with Harmony is the support."
"Check Point Harmony Endpoint poses a steep learning curve and has high resource consumption, requiring high-performance PCs on our endpoint site."
"The technical support could be improved."
"The next release should consider a strong threat detection mechanism that can categorize various levels of attacks for faster analysis."
"Check Point should always focus on emerging business requirements and should always be working proactively in meeting the requirements of clientele and users in a timely manner."
"During scanning, sometimes, there is a heavy load on the workstation. This needs to be improved."
"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 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."
"It would be helpful for me if this solution works on our cloud backup data."
"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."
"Occasionally when you open a ticket, there's a lack of understanding that prevents the solution from being resolved directly."
"The only problem with Norton Antivirus is that it consumes a lot of resources like CPU and memory in the background."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Check Point Harmony Endpoint's pricing is more competitive than any other vendor."
"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."
"We implement this solution with a yearly subscription and there are no extra costs."
"I rate the solution's pricing a five out of ten. It costs around ₱2,200 per endpoint."
"I rate Check Point Harmony Endpoint's pricing a seven out of ten because it is a little high."
"Check Point Harmony Endpoint is cost effective."
"The solution is too pricey."
"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."
"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."
"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."
"I don't pay for a license."
"Pricing for this software is competitive."
"The licensing fee for this solution is not expensive."
"The solution gives the value for the money."
"Security Premium is highly-priced."
