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

"What I like best about Check Point Antivirus is that it's a good solution against phishing, malware, etc. It can do a lot in terms of security. You can also manage all the endpoints or users from the Check Point Antivirus platform, which is another feature I found valuable in the solution."
"Compliance check, anti-malware, Media Encryption Full disc encryption, Forensic behavioral ransomware protection are some type of feature that Check Point provides with a single dashboard console."

"The virus detection models orchestrate real-time monitoring of data with reliable reporting information."
"They have a great knowledge base that you can leverage as a user."

"What I like best about Check Point Antivirus is that it's a strong tool for preventing malicious traffic and threats from entering the environment."
"Cost-wise it's cheaper than other options."
"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."
"We like how it can check for issues. That includes files and web browsers."
"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."
"Security Premium's best features are blocking, notifications, and the user interface."
"With the heightened security around phishing, identity theft, and malware, this is a good product."
"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."
"The most valuable feature is the quick installation."
"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."
 

Cons

"Support's service and the response times can be improved. The triaging of the tickets takes a long time and the tickets are only resolved with escalations."
"A certain reduction in the annual subscription pricing could help many startup organizations like ours."
"They could be focused on the analysis of USB devices."
"We've noticed that the management console has some limitations as it's managed through the browser."
"The biggest thing would be the ability to update the SMO's and gateways through Gaia instead of always completing it through the command line."
"Dashboard customization is needed for improvements. While the centralized management is strong, the dashboard could offer more flexibility."
"The only thing that our customers want, is lower prices."
"They can improve the customization features to the greatest extent possible and also help bring automation into system security in the most unified manner possible."
"Occasionally when you open a ticket, there's a lack of understanding that prevents the solution from being resolved directly."
"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."
"Occasionally when you open a ticket, there's a lack of understanding that prevents the solution from being resolved directly."
"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 solution can improve the security modules."
"As far as improvement to the product, perhaps the price could be better."
"During scanning, sometimes, there is a heavy load on the workstation. This needs to be improved."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"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."

"The solution gives the value for the money."
"I don't pay for a license."
"Pricing for this software is competitive."
"If they could come down in price that would be good. It's not exactly the lowest."
