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

"They have pretty much everything you can ask for as far as features are concerned. That is because they know their market. They are focused on what they do and they do only that."
"The best thing is that it fits into all environments, which gives any organization a chance to use it intuitively without worrying about the nature of their industry."
"It can scan the files that our users have downloaded to check if they have a virus."
"A very good and robust antivirus solution."
"Since we implemented Checkpoint Endpoint Security we have had no infection thus far."
"Harmony's endpoint sandboxing is really good."
"The end-user facilities for managing the tool are good."
"With Check Point Antivirus, we can ensure our user's machine is protected and securely connected to the network."
"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."
"Protects me from internet vulnerability."
"Security Premium's best features are blocking, notifications, and the user interface."
"The most valuable feature is the quick installation."
"Norton Security Premium is good, and it's pretty simple to install."
"It does not take many resources during scanning."
"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."
 

Cons

"The solution needs more alerts to warn of attacks."
"An additional feature I would like to see involves the VPN."
"There was a learning curve for our general population of employees (the user)."
"The antivirus is not as friendly as other solutions and can be improved."
"We'd like to see better integration with other security tools."
"The endpoint might consume excessive resources from the machine, which can impact its performance."
"For the future, I would like to see maybe a content-filtering emulation feature in Harmony Endpoint."
"Mobile users are reluctant to actually use the solution."
"It would be helpful for me if this solution works on our cloud backup data."
"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. 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 don't like the password manager of Norton Security Premium. I really dislike it."
"The solution can improve the security modules."
"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."
 

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."
"The solution is too pricey."
"The price of Check Point Harmony Endpoint is comparable to SonicWall. The price could be a bit lower."
"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."
"I rate Check Point Harmony Endpoint's pricing a seven out of ten because it is a little high."
"In addition to the standard licensing fees, there is a cost for support."
"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."
"Security Premium is highly-priced."
"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."
"The solution gives the value for the money."
"The licensing fee for this solution is not expensive."
"I don't pay for a license."
"Security Premium costs around US$100 for three years, which is a little expensive."
"Pricing for this software is competitive."
