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

"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."
"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."
"Data security analytics enable us to prepare and take suitable precautions before landing in trouble and exposing confidential information."
"We're able to secure all endpoints and manage them from a single console."
"Thanks to Check Point Harmony Endpoint, the threat was immediately detected and contained before it could spread or compromise any data."
"The communication with the console is very dynamic and remote, without the need to return to the computer locally."
"The zero-day threat prevention is excellent."
"The most valuable feature of Check Point Harmony Endpoint is centralized management."
"Protects me from internet vulnerability."
"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 internet security was a plus, and it's pretty good."
"The antivirus aspect of the solution is very good, and the support we receive from Norton is excellent."
"Norton Security Premium is good, and it's pretty simple to install."
"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."
"We like how it can check for issues. That includes files and web browsers."
"The licensing fee for this solution is not expensive."
 

Cons

"One area that could be improved about Check Point Harmony Endpoint is the user interface for policy management. It is functional, but not very intuitive, especially when trying to set granular rules or exceptions."
"There is no real scalability."
"It needs to include built-in deployment. This will make the job easier rather than having to go and dig up an Active Directory deployment along with policy objects."
"We'd like to see better integration with other security tools."
"One thing I can suggest for Check Point Harmony Endpoint is that the endpoint agent is very heavy, and sometimes it feels like due to the heavy endpoint size, our PC is slow, so that can be improved."
"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."
"The antivirus could be improved in terms of the resources it consumes, particularly regarding CPU and memory usage. We've encountered issues with some of our firewalls, leading us to turn off the antivirus feature due to its heavy resource consumption."
"I still don't have a clear opinion of the possible improvements that the tool may need."
"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."
"The solution can improve the security modules."
"The product could always be more secure."
"It would be helpful for me if this solution works on our cloud backup data."
"The only problem with Norton Antivirus is that it consumes a lot of resources like CPU and memory in the background."
"Security Premium's cost could be lower."
"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."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The tool’s cost has increased by almost 300% in two years."
"We are paying 2,50,000 Sri Lankan Rupees annually which is the fixed charge."
"The licensing cost for Check Point is $3 USD or $4 USD per end-user."
"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."
"In addition to the standard licensing fees, there is a cost for support."
"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."
"I rate the product price a four on a scale of one to ten, where one is low, and ten is high."
"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."
"I don't pay for a license."
"If they could come down in price that would be good. It's not exactly the lowest."
"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."
"Pricing for this software is competitive."
"The solution gives the value for the money."
"Security Premium is highly-priced."
"The licensing fee for this solution is not expensive."
