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 best features of Check Point Harmony Endpoint that stand out the most for me include the anti-ransomware protection, which detects abnormal encryption behavior, stops it instantly, and restores affected files, preventing downtime for the users."
"With Check Point, we can implement security measures to control access to the network and systems, which helps prevent unauthorized access."
"What I like best about Check Point Antivirus is that it's a strong tool for preventing malicious traffic and threats from entering the environment."
"Since we started using it, we've seen fewer security incidents, faster response times, and better protection against ransomware."
"The technical support is good."
"The most valuable feature is forensics."
"Forensic Analysis provides a complete analysis of threats via detailed reports."
"The tool's most valuable feature is its ability to support Windows 7 and other legacy products. We still have users for such systems in the Philippines. I also like its threat-handling and forensic capabilities. The tool is easy to navigate, read, and digest, and its detection capabilities are also good. The solution has good reports that are easy to read."
"With the heightened security around phishing, identity theft, and malware, this is a good product."
"In general, technical support has been helpful."
"The ransomware protection that they have now is worth considering."
"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 most valuable feature is the quick installation."
"Flexible antivirus and antimalware software. It also provides protection against ransomware. It's flexible, easy to handle, scalable, and stable."
"The antivirus aspect of the solution is very good, and the support we receive from Norton is excellent."
"The licensing fee for this solution is not expensive."
 

Cons

"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."
"We cannot integrate this product with other solutions, which is something that should be improved."
"A little change in the product's user interface is required since it is one of the areas where the product has certain shortcomings."
"What's missing in Check Point Antivirus is the EDL feature."
"While features are really good and promising to use and implement, a certain level of improvement is required in terms of software deployment across different business environments."
"It would be useful if you could also mark blocks as safe from a client. Now users always have to ask an admin to make exclusions."
"Performance and resource consumption should be reduced."
"I would prefer it if this solution was cheaper for everybody to buy it and enjoy these wonderful and distinguished characteristics."
"The product could always be more secure."
"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."
"As far as improvement to the product, perhaps the price could be better."
"I do not find it to be scalable."
"During scanning, sometimes, there is a heavy load on the workstation. This needs to be improved."
"The product is an antivirus, it should be updated automatically when needed."
"I don't like the password manager of Norton Security Premium. I really dislike it."
"Sometimes the program is too complex, and simplifying it might be an improvement."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"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."
"Check Point Antivirus is the most economical solution."
"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."
"The cost is huge compared to other products that are available on market."
"The price of Check Point Harmony Endpoint is comparable to SonicWall. The price could be a bit lower."
"We are paying 2,50,000 Sri Lankan Rupees annually which is the fixed charge."
"Check Point Harmony Endpoint's pricing is more competitive than any other vendor."
"We implement this solution with a yearly subscription and there are no extra costs."
"I don't pay for a license."
"Security Premium is highly-priced."
"The solution gives the value for the money."
"The licensing fee for this solution is not expensive."
"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."
"Pricing for this software is competitive."
"If they could come down in price that would be good. It's not exactly the lowest."
