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

"The remote support is good."
"SandBlast Agent is always working in the background collecting sensitive data, forensics, and notifying users whenever there is a chance of a brute-force attack into our systems. Otherwise, it has been protecting our data at various geographies along with the endpoints that we set up on the cloud. They have been able to filter out or thwart any attacks from the very word, "Go," and make our work very safe and smooth."
"Check Point Antivirus ensures our organization's security posture by ensuring that everyone accessing the internet does so securely. It performs packet inspection, enabling all security blades to monitor and filter traffic constantly. This includes URL filtering to prevent access to unwanted sites and to protect against any attempts to compromise our network."
"The most valuable feature is forensics."
"Check Point Harmony Endpoint protects our company by warning us against clicking any malicious links and prevents our hosts from becoming vulnerable to cyber attacks."
"This solution is consistently implemented as part of the organization's endpoint security solution, combining global threat intelligence and next-generation advanced threat prevention engines."
"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."
"There's the possibility of being able to do the administration from the Check Point portal, maintaining control and visibility of the different security events at all times."
"The antivirus aspect of the solution is very good, and the support we receive from Norton is excellent."
"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."
"Protects me from internet vulnerability."
"The most valuable feature is the quick installation."
"Security Premium's best features are blocking, notifications, and the user interface."
"In general, technical support has been helpful."
"The ransomware protection that they have now is worth considering."
"We like how it can check for issues. That includes files and web browsers."
 

Cons

"There should be some way of managing this solution outside the organization's network, possibly with some type of remote access. For example, if I'm the admin of Check Point who manages the entire network, I would like to have access on my home device or maybe a mobile app to get reports, etc."
"Inspecting HTTPS traffic requires enabling HTTPS inspection and threat emulation, which can be resource intensive, resulting in performance impact on legitimate traffic also."
"To improve Check Point Harmony Endpoint, I believe the DLP feature needs enhancement because many SMB customers seek a single solution that includes both EDR and DLP to meet regulations."
"One aspect that could see enhancement is the user interface."
"A little change in the product's user interface is required since it is one of the areas where the product has certain shortcomings."
"Areas that have room for improvement are the scope of the product and, while I think the support is good, they can improve support as well."
"I would like to see a better UI for admin functions."
"The next release should consider a strong threat detection mechanism that can categorize various levels of attacks for faster analysis."
"During scanning, sometimes, there is a heavy load on the workstation. This needs to be improved."
"It would be helpful for me if this solution works on our cloud backup data."
"The product is an antivirus, it should be updated automatically when needed."
"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 only problem with Norton Antivirus is that it consumes a lot of resources like CPU and memory in the background."
"Sometimes the program is too complex, and simplifying it might be an improvement."
"I do not find it to be scalable."
"Security Premium's cost could be lower."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"I bought them for 12 months and I genuinely cannot remember what I paid for them. I think it's about 100 pounds per user per year, so about 10 pounds a month per person."
"We implement this solution with a yearly subscription and there are no extra costs."
"We are paying 2,50,000 Sri Lankan Rupees annually which is the fixed charge."
"I rate the solution's pricing a five out of ten. It costs around ₱2,200 per endpoint."
"The price of Check Point Harmony Endpoint is comparable to SonicWall. The price could be a bit lower."
"I rate the product price a four on a scale of one to ten, where one is low, and ten is high."
"In addition to the standard licensing fees, there is a cost for support."
"The product is averagely priced. The product price is neither very high nor too low. The tool is not really expensive."
"If they could come down in price that would be good. It's not exactly the lowest."
"I don't pay for a license."
"The licensing fee for this solution is not expensive."
"The solution gives the value for the money."
"Security Premium is highly-priced."
"Pricing for this software is competitive."
"We have a yearly license, and each license is around 20 or 30 Jordanian Dinars plus taxes."
"Security Premium costs around US$100 for three years, which is a little expensive."
