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

"Checkpoint antivirus blade has improved our customers security postures by enhancing their malware detection, reduced risk of cyber attacks and also by stopping threats before they reach users by scanning files at the network gateway."
"The most valuable features of the solution are web protection and threat prevention."
"Stability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten."
"The best features that Check Point Harmony Endpoint offers are the central management and its ThreatCloud intelligence that provides good protection from threats and real-time updates on new threat attacks worldwide."
"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."
"It helps us to detect running malicious activity in our network and after the COVID situation, most users are working from home where it becomes very difficult for IT admin to maintain security so such type of solution definitely helps us to prevent cyber attacks."
"I came to the realization that this was the best solution for the need and the budget I had available and it hasn't disappointed me since."
"What I like best about Check Point Antivirus is that it's a good solution against phishing, malware, etc. It can do a lot in terms of security. You can also manage all the endpoints or users from the Check Point Antivirus platform, which is another feature I found valuable in the solution."
"Security Premium's best features are blocking, notifications, and the user interface."
"We like how it can check for issues, including files and web browsers, as it is a full-stack solution for antivirus for personal use and it is pretty effective."
"The product is called Norton 360 all-in-one. It is a full 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."
"Protects me from internet vulnerability."
"With the heightened security around phishing, identity theft, and malware, this is a good product."
"The internet security was a plus, and it's pretty good."
"Norton Security Premium is good, and it's pretty simple to install."
 

Cons

"I would like to see is this same solution being able to link with the services of different corporate networks as if they were a remote access VPN extension and thus not require additional licenses."
"It's not easy to investigate an incident that you find in the company. Users often face trouble when downloading files, so it is very slow in terms of how it works."
"Currently, you can only have general reports of the threats removed and the behavior of the database. You cannot get separate reports of the Check Point service-linked devices."
"The management in Check Point Harmony Endpoint could be improved."
"The next release should consider a strong threat detection mechanism that can categorize various levels of attacks for faster analysis."
"The only drawback is the integration process."
"Customization of UI should be a little better in terms of application UI and messages that are displayed when something is blocked or non-compliant."
"Mobile users are reluctant to actually use the solution."
"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."
"I do not find it to be scalable."
"I don't like the password manager of Norton Security Premium. I really dislike it."
"As far as improvement to the product, perhaps the price could be better."
"Sometimes the program is too complex, and simplifying it might be an improvement."
"The product could always be more secure."
"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."
