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

"Check Point Harmony Endpoint positively impacts my organization by reducing incidents by preventing malware and minimizing security events."
"The solution has all the standard features you would expect for endpoint protection."
"After introducing Harmony Endpoint we have seen the incident levels going down to close to zero."
"What we've gained is more of an understanding of what's on our network."
"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."
"Harmony Endpoint is able to detect, monitor, block, and mitigate attacks on the endpoint and it builds and maintains relevant logs for later inspection."
"The platform's most valuable features are the ability to build API, which meets our business requirements, and the VPN client, which provides VPN access from a single client."
"They have a better endpoint catchment rate due to their reliability."
"Norton Security Premium is good, and it's pretty simple to install."
"The product is called Norton 360 all-in-one. It is a full product."
"The dashboard is 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."
"We tried a few: Kaspersky, Trend Micro, we used McAfee, we used Norton; we tried them all on our entire fleet of computers, and we realized that in terms of ease of use and resource consumption, Norton is something that is acceptable to us."
"Security Premium's best features are blocking, notifications, and the user interface."
"It does not take many resources during scanning."
"In general, technical support has been helpful."
 

Cons

"If the IT department is used to "cloning" endpoints (making images) you are going to have a hard time trying to install the product and you are going to end up reading a lot of Check Point documents."
"We would like to see the URL filtering functionality improved in this solution, so that we can exclude domains, rather than just single site URL's."
"Sometimes, with a lot of clients (1,000) the UI is a bit sluggish."
"I think Check Point Harmony Endpoint could be improved as I dislike the management interface because it's not intuitive, it lacks real-time reporting without configuring smart events, and it made administration less efficient."
"I would recommend Microsoft Defender for Endpoint over this solution."
"Compared to other brands, we would like a dedicated anti-spam to be included in order to close the full circle."
"Check Point Antivirus could be improved by having the gateway automatically run a packet capture on the traffic so that it can be easily uploaded to TAC in the event that there is a false positive or if the traffic is required for further investigation."
"We need the ability to integrate this solution with the other existing solutions, such as Harmony."
"As far as improvement to the product, perhaps the price could be better."
"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."
"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 product could always be more secure."
"Occasionally when you open a ticket, there's a lack of understanding that prevents the solution from being resolved directly."
"Sometimes the program is too complex, and simplifying it might be an improvement."
"The product is an antivirus, it should be updated automatically when needed."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"We implement this solution with a yearly subscription and there are no extra costs."
"In comparison to other software solutions available on the market, it comes at a higher price point."
"The solution is reasonable, but there are cheaper solutions out there."
"I rate Check Point Harmony Endpoint's pricing a seven out of ten because it is a little high."
"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."
"Price-wise, the product is affordable. There are no additional costs apart from the licensing charges that are attached to the product."
"I rate the product price a four on a scale of one to ten, where one is low, and ten is high."
"Check Point Harmony Endpoint is cost effective."
"Security Premium costs around US$100 for three years, which is a little expensive."
"Security Premium is highly-priced."
"The licensing fee for this solution is not expensive."
"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."
"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."
"I don't pay for a license."
