Nasseer Qureshi - PeerSpot reviewer
Comprehensive defensive features boost daily protection and efficiency
I see a need for improvement especially in policy management and policy customization with Check Point Harmony Endpoint. As a new user, I find it somewhat difficult to customize and apply policies due to the various options available. I would appreciate improvement in fine-tuning those policies and integrating with other tools, such as being able to send logs from Check Point to our SIM or syslog solution. The user interface is good, and I really appreciate it, but improvements are needed in policy customization and integration with third-party products. Additionally, I would prefer to see a mechanism to send agents directly from the console to an endpoint during installation.
LUIZ FERNANDO MARIANO SILVA - PeerSpot reviewer
Enables faster updates and provides an easy-to-use user interface
I have an advanced license that includes all features. Though we have the license, we cannot use it completely because it is not enabled in the Microsoft tier. It does not make sense. We do not want to buy it separately because the price is different if we buy separate licenses.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"It provides remote access for the staff and increases their productivity."
"We have found the stability to be very reliable."
"This comprehensive approach can safeguard your organization from a wider range of threats, including ransomware, malware, phishing attacks, and zero-day exploits."
"It's pretty complete for preventing threats to endpoints. Its capabilities are great."
"It monitors data flow across the networking system to enhance comprehensive workflow infrastructure."
"The Management interface of the product is relatively user-friendly and easy to navigate."
"We're able to secure all endpoints and manage them from a single console."
"The solution has all the standard features you would expect for endpoint protection."
"SonicWall Capture Client offers a cost-effective solution that's cheaper compared to other vendors like CrowdStrike."
"The product’s interface is easy to use."
"SonicWall Capture Client has a serial number to connect to your firewall."
"The threat protection feature of SonicWall Capture Client is most valuable."
"The most valuable features of SonicWall Capture Client are CSC (Capture Security Center), RTDMI (Real-Time Deep Memory Inspection), and the deep memory inspection feature."
"Considering other products, SonicWall Capture Client has two differentiators."
"SonicWall Capture Client's scalability is nice."
"The initial setup is straightforward."
 

Cons

"More granular reporting and dashboards for EDR solutions could be beneficial, as could enhanced third-party integrations for additional threat intelligence that can be integrated into the system."
"Check Point Harmony Endpoint poses a steep learning curve and has high resource consumption, requiring high-performance PCs on our endpoint site."
"The management in Check Point Harmony Endpoint could be improved."
"One challenge with Check Point Harmony Endpoint is that it has a higher cost."
"I think some work needs to be done to improve the integration with other third-party products, namely SIEM solutions."
"Enhanced behavioral analytics would provide a deeper understanding of endpoint activities, fortifying our defenses against sophisticated cyber adversaries."
"The solution needs more alerts to warn of attacks."
"They need to make the user interface on the server more intuitive and user-friendly."
"The implementation is not easy."
"It takes technical support too long to resolve an issue."
"Technical support from SonicWall has room for improvement. While their escalation process is understandable, it can be time-consuming as all logs need to be provided multiple times across different service levels."
"XDR cannot be used unless MDR services are purchased with SonicWall."
"The biggest issue with SonicWall Capture Client is network latency."
"The vulnerability reports need to be better. Windows Defender detected some issues that SonicWall Capture Client couldn't."
"An area for improvement in SonicWall Capture Client is TenantCloud support. Suppose you want to implement SonicWall Capture Client. You'll have to register it on MySonicWall. Then once your SonicWall Capture Client license expires and you don't want to renew it, you can't delete it from your MySonicWall account, so that's an area for improvement."
"SonicWall Capture Client could be made a little lighter than it currently is in terms of memory consumption."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The solution is too pricey."
"The price of Check Point Harmony Endpoint is comparable to SonicWall. The price could be a bit lower."
"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's pricing is more competitive than any other vendor."
"In addition to the standard licensing fees, there is a cost for support."
"Price-wise, the product is affordable. There are no additional costs apart from the licensing charges that are attached to the product."
"There are three different licensing models including basic, advanced, and complete, and it needs to be selected according to the endpoint."
"Initial monies replacing all AVs with a single product is about £10k."
"You have to pay for the solution, and a lot of customers do not want to pay."
"The product is very expensive."
"Here in Indonesia, SonicWall Capture Client costs five hundred thousand rupiahs for every endpoint. If I'm correct, you only have to pay the licensing fee, and there's no additional fee. To me, the pricing for SonicWall Capture Client is four out of five."
