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

"I have found the Zero phishing and IPS features the most useful in Check Point Harmony Endpoint. Additionally, threat emulation sandboxing is effective."
"Check Point Antivirus has continuously scanned each and every file before reaching our network, and this feature gives full security confidence to feel safe from malware and ransomware attacks."
"The solution gives us protection and a visualization of security analysis in real-time, is a strategic ally at the level of perimeter security within our organization, protects each one of our assets, and offers a centralized administration that allows us to be much more productive with a greater general visualization of everything that happens in our environment."
"The feature that we find most valuable is the easy way of configuring it via the SmartConsole on Check Point. The configuration is very straightforward and although it has some impact on the firewall CPU and memory, it doesn't impact the IPS, for example. It allows for the scanning of downloaded files from the internet. Scanning files that our users have downloaded to check if they have any virus is the most important thing."
"Check Point Harmony Endpoint has positively impacted our organization by both improving efficiency and reducing incidents."
"Check Point Harmony Endpoint can be easily deployed and is cost effective and more secure."
"Our administrative processes have been protected by this great EDR system, and all the devices used in our company are monitored by a system that is responsible for eliminating threats before they react."
"Check Point Antivirus is easy to configure."
"The product is called Norton 360 all-in-one. It is a full product."
"With the heightened security around phishing, identity theft, and malware, this is a good product."
"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."
"Norton Security Premium is good, and it's pretty simple to install."
"With the heightened security around phishing, identity theft, and malware, this is a good product."
"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."
"The most valuable feature is the multifunctional protection."
 

Cons

"Check Point offers solutions with only a few features for our company's customers' sites."
"The cases of false positives should substantially be reduced to the greatest extent to keep the efficiency excellent."
"They could be focused on the analysis of USB devices."
"The technical support could be improved."
"One aspect that could see enhancement is the user interface."
"The documentation of Check Point Harmony Endpoint needs improvement because it is very hard to find on the internet and it is not intuitive."
"The management console could be made more intuitive and user-friendly, with simplified navigation and clearer visualizations of threat data and security statuses. Improve the performance impact on systems, especially for older hardware."
"It gives you an alert for malicious sites, which, after searching on the Google database, don't come out to be the same."
"Security Premium's cost could be lower."
"During scanning, sometimes, there is a heavy load on the workstation. This needs to be improved."
"The solution can improve the security modules."
"The solution can improve the security modules."
"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 product is an antivirus, it should be updated automatically when needed."
"I do not find it to be scalable."
"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."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"I rate the solution's pricing a five out of ten. It costs around ₱2,200 per endpoint."
"Initial monies replacing all AVs with a single product is about £10k."
"We are paying 2,50,000 Sri Lankan Rupees annually which is the fixed charge."
"Check Point Antivirus is a good solution, but it's a little costly."
"The solution is too pricey."
"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."
"Check Point Harmony Endpoint is an expensive solution. My company's clients pay INR 1,000 for each user of the product, while Check Point also provides an option to pay INR 2,300 for three years."
"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."
"The solution gives the value for the money."
"Pricing for this software is competitive."
"The licensing fee for this solution is not expensive."
"I don't pay for a license."
"Security Premium is highly-priced."
"Security Premium costs around US$100 for three years, which is a little expensive."
