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

"Resource overheads have been reduced and we are overall more secure as a business."
"The most valuable features of the solution are web protection and threat prevention."
"It has a great ability to detect threats and keep us safe."
"Scalability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten."
"Check Point Harmony Endpoint has positively impacted our organization by both improving efficiency and reducing incidents."
"It is a stable solution. My company has not received any complaints regarding the product's stability from our customers who use the solution."
"The best features Check Point Harmony Endpoint offers are its comprehensive and proactive approach; these features stand out because it's very lightweight and has very good anti-ransomware protection."
"Its stability during any heavy performance activity is excellent."
"In general, technical support has been helpful."
"The internet security was a plus, and it's pretty good."
"The ransomware protection that they have now is worth considering."
"The product is called Norton 360 all-in-one; it is a full product."
"The licensing fee for this solution is not expensive."
"The antivirus aspect of the solution is very 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."
"Norton Security Premium is good, and it's pretty simple to install."
 

Cons

"Overall I didn't personally face any issues while implementing Check Point Antivirus."
"Tech Support must be better."
"An additional feature I would like to see involves the VPN."
"It may be interesting to improve this solution against zero-day attacks, as they happen very frequently and are clearly a severe threat."
"We know that Check Point has a very good database about threats even Check Point tries to make this EDR stable still there are some issues we were facing after upgrading or taking TAC to help its got resolved but Check Point really needs to work on metadata."
"As I understand there will be a URL filtering feature included with the browser agent in the future. This will allow URL filtering without the need for a Gateway Device. This is something I am looking forward to and would be a great addition to list of features."
"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."
"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."
"During scanning, sometimes, there is a heavy load on the workstation. This needs to be improved."
"The only problem with Norton Antivirus is that it consumes a lot of resources like CPU and memory in the background."
"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 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 product is an antivirus, it should be updated automatically when needed."
"It would be helpful for me if this solution works on our cloud backup data."
"I don't like the password manager of Norton Security Premium. I really dislike it."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Check Point Harmony Endpoint is cost effective."
"Choosing the correct set of licenses is essential because, without the additional software blade licenses, the Check Point gateways are just a stateful firewall."
"We are paying 2,50,000 Sri Lankan Rupees annually which is the fixed charge."
"The tool’s cost has increased by almost 300% in two years."
"I rate the product price a four on a scale of one to ten, where one is low, and ten is high."
"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."
"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."
"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."
"We have a yearly license, and each license is around 20 or 30 Jordanian Dinars plus taxes."
"I don't pay for a license."
"If they could come down in price that would be good. It's not exactly the lowest."
"Pricing for this software is competitive."
"Security Premium costs around US$100 for three years, which is a little expensive."
"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."
"The solution gives the value for the money."
"The licensing fee for this solution is not expensive."
