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

"Its most valuable feature is being able to integrate cloud services and centralize the protection policy from a single administration dashboard."
"This solution has become a great ally for the prevention of threats and security problems caused by viruses such as ransomware, and we are protected against threats, which is of great value."
"This is the best security software for all organizations to have."
"It is integrated with a cloud platform that takes advantage of many emulation features in real-time filtering of malicious attacks."
"In terms of network usage, it actually reduced the amount of malicious attacks that we had. Before, we really didn't have a secure network. Each endpoint had to protect itself and probably most of them were not actually protected. Now, it's an entire process in which we've been able to cut down significantly the amount of malicious attacks by 60 percent that we get in the organization. It helps us to adequately monitor what has been going on with our network traffic and stopping individual attacks from accessing certain sites where we want to have restrictions or limitations."
"Thanks to Check Point Harmony Endpoint, the threat was immediately detected and contained before it could spread or compromise any data."
"When we provision new laptops for remote employees, Check Point Harmony Endpoint automatically applies our security configurations the moment the device connects to the network, which includes anti-ransomware protections, firewall rules, and web filtering."
"Check Point offers the most secure and surefire way to tackle ransomware."
"The licensing fee for this solution is not expensive."
"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."
"We like how it can check for issues. That includes files and web browsers."
"The internet security was a plus, and it's pretty 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."
"In general, technical support has been helpful."
"It does not take many resources during scanning."
"With the heightened security around phishing, identity theft, and malware, this is a good product."
 

Cons

"The product updates are a manual process for my administrator and can take several hours out of his day."
"The antivirus could be improved in terms of the resources it consumes, particularly regarding CPU and memory usage. We've encountered issues with some of our firewalls, leading us to turn off the antivirus feature due to its heavy resource consumption."
"The solution could be improved in the future with a way to provide online training to customers for free, as other providers do."
"The services of EDR consumption should be reduced and the support needs to be improved."
"The agent's size is very heavy, so it could be reduced to a lighter version for Check Point Harmony Endpoint."
"Check Point Harmony Endpoint could be improved in a few small areas, such as making the initial setup and onboarding more intuitive for new teams, providing more flexible custom reporting options, and reducing the performance impact on older devices."
"They could improve across many areas, like bringing in more customization and reducing the cost further."
"Need more documentation."
"The only problem with Norton Antivirus is that it consumes a lot of resources like CPU and memory in the background."
"As far as improvement to the product, perhaps the price could be better."
"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."
"The solution can improve the security modules."
"Security Premium's cost could be lower."
"Sometimes the program is too complex, and simplifying it might be an improvement."
"It would be helpful for me if this solution works on our cloud backup data."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The product is averagely priced. The product price is neither very high nor too low. The tool is not really expensive."
"Check Point Harmony Endpoint is cost effective."
"There are three different licensing models including basic, advanced, and complete, and it needs to be selected according to the endpoint."
"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 pay on an annual basis. There are no additional fees, they mostly tell us what we have to pay. We have budgeted for it."
"Price-wise, the product is affordable. There are no additional costs apart from the licensing charges that are attached to the product."
"The pricing is reasonable."
"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."
"We have a yearly license, and each license is around 20 or 30 Jordanian Dinars plus taxes."
"If they could come down in price that would be good. It's not exactly the lowest."
"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."
"I don't pay for a license."
"The licensing fee for this solution is not expensive."
"Pricing for this software is competitive."
"The solution gives the value for the money."
