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."
"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."
"The end-user facilities for managing the tool are good."
"It is very powerful tooling that can be tuned a lot."
"If you are looking for a good antivirus, Check Point Antivirus is more than good, you will be surprised how excellent it is in all its aspects."
"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."
"Check Point Harmony Endpoint has one of the most user-friendly dashboards I've seen."
"Compared to its competitors, Check Point Harmony Endpoint has advantages in areas like EDR and behavioral detection."
"The most valuable feature is the multifunctional protection."
"It does not take many resources during scanning."
"The internet security was a plus, and it's pretty good."
"The dashboard is good."
"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."
"The antivirus aspect of the solution is very good, and the support we receive from Norton is excellent."
"The ransomware protection that they have now is worth considering."
 

Cons

"We use a couple of Check Point products, like SmartEvent, and SandBlast Agent is not really integrated into that. We haven't gotten the reports working yet. We are working with the account team and trying. As I said, it's still relatively new in terms of what we're trying to achieve."
"Check Point Antivirus could be improved by having the gateway automatically run a packet capture on the traffic so that it can be easily uploaded to TAC in the event that there is a false positive or if the traffic is required for further investigation."
"The interface could be more user-friendly."
"The pricing for Check Point Antivirus is a bit higher compared to other vendors or standalone antivirus options, and my request to the company is to consider reducing the licensing costs."
"The services of EDR consumption should be reduced and the support needs to be improved."
"The solution can be made lightweight in order to keep the systems more effective during the background operations of the scanning and security checks."
"The next release can focus more on timely upgrades to enhance computing compatibility."
"It gives you an alert for malicious sites, which, after searching on the Google database, don't come out to be the same."
"The product could always be more secure."
"The product is an antivirus, it should be updated automatically when needed."
"As far as improvement to the product, perhaps the price could be better."
"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."
"I do not find it to be scalable."
"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."
"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

"The pricing is very expensive. You need to buy the appliance and subscription as well."
"Choosing the correct set of licenses is essential because, without the additional software blade licenses, the Check Point gateways are just a stateful firewall."
"Check Point Harmony Endpoint is cost effective."
"The cost is huge compared to other products that are available on market."
"We implement this solution with a yearly subscription and there are no extra costs."
"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."
"Price-wise, the product is affordable. There are no additional costs apart from the licensing charges that are attached to the product."
"Licensing comes free in that first year or is included in the base package. From a commercial point of view, it really just is the renewal cost, rather than a one-time fixed cost or buy-in."
"We have a yearly license, and each license is around 20 or 30 Jordanian Dinars plus taxes."
"Pricing for this software is competitive."
"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."
"If they could come down in price that would be good. It's not exactly the lowest."
"The solution gives the value for the money."
"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."
