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

"Threat detection intelligence and high customization facilitation is the most popular aspect for customers and users."
"Data security analytics enable us to prepare and take suitable precautions before landing in trouble and exposing confidential information."
"The simplicity of management and remote assistance for the users make it a smooth experience, and administrators can easily handle tasks remotely."
"Check Point Harmony Endpoint's best feature is SandBlast Zero-Day Protection because it uses advanced sandboxing and threat emulation to stop unknown threats before they execute, which is especially effective against ransomware and targeted attacks."
"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."
"We find the zero-day protection to be an extremely valuable feature of this solution."
"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."
"Whoever wants their data secure, and they want to have peace of mind, make sure to go with the anti-malware capabilities on the SandBlast Agent."
"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."
"Security Premium's best features are blocking, notifications, and the user interface."
"Protects me from internet vulnerability."
"In general, technical support has been helpful."
"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 internet security was a plus, and it's pretty good."
"The ransomware protection that they have now is worth considering."
 

Cons

"It needs more documentation and better ease of deployment."
"The cases of false positives should substantially be reduced to the greatest extent to keep the efficiency excellent."
"Infinity Portal sometimes requires more performance."
"Check Point Harmony Endpoint can be improved if it were less resource-intensive because not all of our end-users have laptops with high resources available, such as 16 GB of RAM."
"In terms of improvement, the Endpoint Agent can be more lightweight so that older machines and laptops can easily handle its consumption, which would enhance the overall performance in our environment."
"I have a few issues when attempting to install Harmony on some of the machines."
"I would like to see simple sandboxing for malware analysis."
"There could be more additions to the compatible systems and applications for integration purposes."
"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."
"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."
"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 product is an antivirus, it should be updated automatically when needed."
"The solution can improve the security modules."
"During scanning, sometimes, there is a heavy load on the workstation. This needs to be improved."
"Occasionally when you open a ticket, there's a lack of understanding that prevents the solution from being resolved directly."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Check Point Harmony Endpoint's pricing is more competitive than any other vendor."
"The price of Check Point Harmony Endpoint is comparable to SonicWall. The price could be a bit lower."
"Check Point Antivirus is a good solution, but it's a little costly."
"We are paying 2,50,000 Sri Lankan Rupees annually which is the fixed charge."
"The price is good."
"The solution is reasonable, but there are cheaper solutions out there."
"One of the key factors that made us go with this solution was the pricing. On the licensing part, there was an initial complementary set of licenses offered in the initial onboarding package, either 15 or 20. Then, we had some complementary licenses in the initial purchase of the package. That was pretty useful."
"In comparison to other software solutions available on the market, it comes at a higher price point."
"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."
"The solution gives the value for the money."
"The licensing fee for this solution is not 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."
"Security Premium is highly-priced."
"Security Premium costs around US$100 for three years, which is a little expensive."
