Excellent anti-ransomware protection, zero-day phishing protection, and web browsing filtering
We used to use other security solutions (Windows Defender and Kaspersky), however, we had security incidents that affected us (viruses and ransomware) and they were very difficult to identify or when we did identify them it was already a long time after the incident occurred and we did not know the cause and therefore affected the operability of our company considerably. Since we made the decision to move to Check Point Harmony we have had greater visibility of everything that happens on our devices and take a preventive approach rather than a reactive strategy, in addition to being more confident that we have Check Point protecting us.

Reduces organizational risk, low on machine load, and helps prevent ransomware
The most important aspect of the solution is that the load on the machine is not very high. It doesn't take up battery resources. The solution prevents ransomware and other threats. So far, it is working brilliantly. The dashboards and UI are user friendly, as is the ability to configure as needed. It seems to have a lot more capabilities. The XDR capabilities, in particular, look very strong. We're currently looking into that. If we want to do integrations with third parties, we don't have very many challenges around that. The ability to ingest and correlate across our security solutions is very useful. It's impressive. The AI engine it has is excellent. It helps us consolidate our security solutions. While it does not allow us to reduce alerts per se, it does a good job of correlating. The way it's integrated into the SIM, it's working to the expectations we have. The solution helps free up people so that they can work on other tasks. We don't have to grow our team too much now. My security team is actually quite small - about five people. We all get more time to handle other tasks. We've noted that it does help reduce mean time to respond. We can identify events easier and those that are most critical are brought to the forefront. Previously, we were in the dark. Now we have so much more visibility. It's been a huge improvement. It's effectively helped to reduce organizational risk.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"It prevents the most imminent threats to the endpoint such as ransomware, phishing or drive-by malware, while quickly minimizing breach impact with autonomous detection and response."
"Scalability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten."
"It is minimally invasive. From a single installer, the equipment is protected and secured."
"The SandBlast agent is the most valuable feature for Check Point Endpoint Security. We've found that the Check Point SandBlast agent is mature."
"The tool's most valuable feature is its ability to support Windows 7 and other legacy products. We still have users for such systems in the Philippines. I also like its threat-handling and forensic capabilities. The tool is easy to navigate, read, and digest, and its detection capabilities are also good. The solution has good reports that are easy to read."
"We can map the MITRE attack framework along with the Cyber Kill Chain completely."
"It is quite easy to use and deploy the agent on endpoints to protect them from bad actors."
"The tool minimizes the impact of a breach with autonomous detection and response."
"Deep Visibility is a valuable feature."
"The remediation and rollback features are pretty impressive."
"The most valuable features of SentinelOne are the lateral movement and the use of the Active Directory."
"The protection SentinelOne Singularity Complete provides to our endpoint devices in terms of cybersecurity is valuable."
"The solution is both stable and scalable."
"The user interface, ease of maintenance, and the efficient way to identify the root cause of an incident to see all the factors that contributed to it are the most valuable features."
"SentinelOne Singularity Complete stands out for its threat-hunting abilities and the agility of its agents in detecting malicious content across our gateways and endpoints."
"The most valuable feature of SentinelOne is the EDR functionality. We are protected against threats, such as ransomware."
 

Cons

"We need a higher maximum file size in the sandboxing feature."
"Customization of UI should be a little better in terms of application UI and messages that are displayed when something is blocked or non-compliant."
"We cannot integrate this product with other solutions, which is something that should be improved."
"We have observed some policies are not working as expected."
"I still don't have a clear opinion of the possible improvements that the tool may need. There are still functionalities that I have not been able to try completely and I would like to spend more time using the tool before offering an opinion to the IT Central community on this point."
"Off the top of my head, I can't think of a way it has improved my organization."
"Check Point Harmony Endpoint could improve mobile device management (MDM)."
"SandBlast Agent had moments in which it had a high load, we escalated it to the CheckPoint support that helped us to stabilize it. We had a problem with the parameterization of the solution. Once corrected by following the CheckPoint instructions, everything worked normally again."
"Their documentation could afford to be a little bit better communicated. A lot of times we have to look at things in the knowledge base, and much of that could be communicated better, but that would probably be the only thing that needs to be improved."
"They should train their own people so that they can train us better. The theory is good."
"The stability of SentinelOne should be improved."
"I don't like switching the way you switch from legacy to XDR."
"SentinelOne Singularity Complete needs more connectors for integration with more solutions."
"One way to improve and get additional benefits would be for SentinelOne to host the updated installer files for us, rather than us having to download and host them ourselves."
"SentinelOne's performance and the accuracy of its incident filtering could be improved."
"Having an additional logic layer could improve the solution, mainly because I run multiple systems with different layers. For example, if I'm running a very important server with this agent, and that server gets infected, I may not necessarily be sure that I want to shut it down right away. Maybe I want to isolate some of the connectivity but not do the entire security remediation automatedly or curtail network access type of activity."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"I rate the product price a four on a scale of one to ten, where one is low, and ten is high."
"The solution is too pricey."
"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."
"The solution is reasonable, but there are cheaper solutions out there."
"Check Point Harmony Endpoint's pricing is more competitive than any other vendor."
"Check Point Harmony Endpoint is cost effective."
"One is the basic license, which only gives you threat prevention. In the second one, you will get port protection. In the complete license, you will get all the licenses, like anti-malware, sandboxing, port protection, and all the licenses. It is very easy to deploy the tool."
"In addition to the standard licensing fees, there is a cost for support."
"I can pay, for my environment, between $30,000 and $40,000 a year, and that's a pretty good deal."
"I rate Singularity Complete four out of 10 for affordability. SentinelOne costs more than traditional antivirus solutions, but we get more out of it. It hasn't saved us any money, but it's an EDR solution, so we get a lot of value from it."
"While SentinelOne Singularity Complete carries a higher price tag than some endpoint security solutions, customers find its robust features and return on investment justify the cost."
"SentinelOne Singularity Complete can be expensive for the SMB market but is suitable for enterprise-level organizations."
"I don't deal with the cost side of things, but the licensing, as far as endpoints go, is a pretty straightforward and simple process."
"The larger count you have, the deeper discount you will receive in your contract."
"The price is costly compared to what we were previously paying with Microsoft Defender and McAfee."
"The solution's price/performance ratio is reasonable."
