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

"If you are looking for a good antivirus, Check Point Antivirus is more than good, you will be surprised how excellent it is in all its aspects."
"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."
"It is a very reliable antivirus."
"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."
"The fact that everything is centralized is great."
"We find the zero-day protection to be an extremely valuable feature of this solution."
"It is very powerful tooling that can be tuned a lot."
"I found the fact of working across multiple attack vectors easy and more beneficial."
"The most valuable feature is the quick installation."
"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 licensing fee for this solution is not expensive."
"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 antivirus aspect of the solution is very good, and the support we receive from Norton is excellent."
"With the heightened security around phishing, identity theft, and malware, this is a good product."
"The dashboard is good."
 

Cons

"Tech Support must be better."
"The interface could be more user-friendly."
"I would like to see simple sandboxing for malware analysis."
"Infinity Portal sometimes requires more performance."
"Configuration with some applications did not take place effectively due to setup complications."
"The solution can be made lightweight in order to keep the systems more effective during the background operations of the scanning and security checks."
"It would be ideal if they had a migration tool of some sort."
"Performance and resource consumption should be reduced."
"The product is an antivirus, it should be updated automatically when needed."
"They say Norton Security Premium is an all-in-one solution, but we don't know exactly what's in it, e.g. they didn't make an effort to explain the difference between a virus scan and a ransomware scan."
"The solution can improve the security modules."
"Sometimes the program is too complex."
"I don't like the password manager of Norton Security Premium. I really dislike it."
"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."
"During scanning, sometimes, there is a heavy load on the workstation. This needs to be improved."
"I don't like the password manager of Norton Security Premium."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The pricing is very expensive. You need to buy the appliance and subscription as well."
"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."
"The cost is huge compared to other products that are available on market."
"The licensing cost for Check Point is $3 USD or $4 USD per end-user."
"The price of Check Point Harmony Endpoint is comparable to SonicWall. The price could be a bit lower."
"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."
"The product is averagely priced. The product price is neither very high nor too low. The tool is not really expensive."
"The price is good."
"Security Premium is highly-priced."
"The solution gives the value for the money."
"We have a yearly license, and each license is around 20 or 30 Jordanian Dinars plus taxes."
"I don't pay for a license."
"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."
"Pricing for this software is competitive."
"If they could come down in price that would be good. It's not exactly the lowest."
