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 technical support is good."
"Check Point Harmony Endpoint has positively impacted our organization by significantly improving our security posture, especially for remote and hybrid users."
"Check Point Harmony Endpoint has positively impacted my organization; we have significantly fewer false positives, it has reduced the number of confirmed infections we deal with, and it has given us better insight into endpoint activity so we now catch more threats at the point of entry."
"By using the Check Point Harmony Endpoint tool we have improved our network visibility, have extensive control of our network and our users, and, above all, have a level of security against cyber attacks that we did not have before."
"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."
"Check Point Harmony Endpoint (endpoint antivirus) has helped our organization by preventing further damage to the computers and the network by detecting and taking appropriate action (quarantine, clean, delete) to viruses and malware."
"Check Point Harmony Endpoint provides greater security as it is impacting positively and has reduced incidents and saved many malicious threats since implementation."
"In terms of network usage, it actually reduced the amount of malicious attacks that we had. Before, we really didn't have a secure network. Each endpoint had to protect itself and probably most of them were not actually protected. Now, it's an entire process in which we've been able to cut down significantly the amount of malicious attacks by 60 percent that we get in the organization. It helps us to adequately monitor what has been going on with our network traffic and stopping individual attacks from accessing certain sites where we want to have restrictions or limitations."
"Norton Security Premium is good, and it's pretty simple to install."
"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."
"It does not take many resources during scanning."
"The product is called Norton 360 all-in-one. It is a full product."
"The ransomware protection that they have now is worth considering."
"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."
 

Cons

"When there are many devices, it is more costly since each device requires unique login credentials."
"The product should improve its pricing."
"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."
"It gives you an alert for malicious sites, which, after searching on the Google database, don't come out to be the same."
"Compared to other brands, we would like a dedicated anti-spam to be included in order to close the full circle."
"The initial setup and configuration should be simplified."
"We use a couple of Check Point products, like SmartEvent, and SandBlast Agent is not really integrated into that. We haven't gotten the reports working yet. We are working with the account team and trying. As I said, it's still relatively new in terms of what we're trying to achieve."
"They could be focused on the analysis of USB devices."
"The solution can improve the security modules."
"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 do not find it to be scalable."
"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."
"It would be helpful for me if this solution works on our cloud backup data."
"I don't like the password manager of Norton Security Premium. I really dislike it."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Choosing the correct set of licenses is essential because, without the additional software blade licenses, the Check Point gateways are just a stateful firewall."
"The product is averagely priced. The product price is neither very high nor too low. The tool is not really expensive."
"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."
"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."
"Initial monies replacing all AVs with a single product is about £10k."
"The solution is too pricey."
"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."
"Check Point Harmony Endpoint is an expensive solution. My company's clients pay INR 1,000 for each user of the product, while Check Point also provides an option to pay INR 2,300 for three years."
"The licensing fee for this solution is not expensive."
"I don't pay for a license."
"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."
"Pricing for this software is competitive."
"Security Premium costs around US$100 for three years, which is a little expensive."
