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.

Good user behavioral analysis and helpful patching but needs better support services
Some of our products have a first and second line owned by us. We are giving support services to the customers instead of the vendor. Some other products are supported directly by the technology vendor, however. Technical support from the vendor is very bad. Usually, when the customer submits a ticket, they put a severity level on the case. Whenever the case is very important, and there is a real malfunction in the product on the customer side, and there is something down that needs someone to have a look immediately, it takes more time than it should to even engage with the customer. When someone has to contact the customer and have a remote session within the customer environment, they sometimes lack in terms of communication with the customer. The support centers are located in the East and not all have an acceptable level of English in order to communicate directly with the customer.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The most valuable feature is the integration with CheckPoint's firewalls. You can have one port, and follow the logs from both Endpoint and firewall security."
"It helps us to detect running malicious activity in our network and after the COVID situation, most users are working from home where it becomes very difficult for IT admin to maintain security so such type of solution definitely helps us to prevent cyber attacks."
"Stability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten."
"One of the coolest features is that it provides an HTML report on the laptop and the endpoint console for the administrator."
"It scans all the endpoints in your cloud and on-premises for vulnerabilities, threats, and malware attacks."
"We're able to secure all endpoints and manage them from a single console."
"One of the most valuable features is the Threat Emulation and Threat Extraction. These features are able to scan email attachments before the user is able to access the file and then provide a safe copy of the attachment. Malicious files never get to the users machine. This is a very valuable feature of this solution."
"The tool minimizes the impact of a breach with autonomous detection and response."
"The primary reason the solution is good is because of its ease-of-use."
"The most valuable features of the solution include DLP (data loss prevention), CASB (cloud access security broker) functionality, endpoint encryption, and cloud workload security."
"Some of McAfee Endpoint Security's main features are it has benefits over normal conventional antivirus solutions because it works much faster."
"The detection is great and the solution is constantly improving."
"The solution provides a data view of the Alpha systems with Trellix installs and makes small changes to the central management console. Nothing on the endpoints themselves works, but it focuses more on the management side."
"This is a good solution for antivirus and malware protection."
"The package of protection that it provides is useful. It has antivirus, malware protection, VPN, and a whole bunch of other features."
"It provides a robust defense against cybersecurity threats while offering user-friendly features like notifications and approval prompts."
 

Cons

"There are a number of features behind paywalls which can be frustrating when you are already paying a premium."
"The solution could be improved in the future with a way to provide online training to customers for free, as other providers do."
"Configuration with some applications did not take place effectively due to setup complications."
"The product updates are a manual process for my administrator and can take several hours out of his day."
"The response from the tool's support team, which starts with L1, is something my company doesn't find helpful, especially when compared to the other solutions that we use."
"Unfortunately, the web (cloud) management system and log search performance are quite bad."
"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."
"I would like to see them add features where we can use this license for mobile browsers, too."
"The product could do more to keep administration alerted to detected threats on endpoints."
"The solution should provide a more easy way to uninstall it on specific stations."
"It can be quite complicated to learn McAfee Endpoint Security and to feel comfortable with the environment."
"There are times the solution has some additional software added that is not fully integrated properly, such as Exchange Group Sheild. It is quite old and is not fully integrated properly and could be improved."
"The security of this solution needs improvement."
"The product is not easy to use."
"The management console is a little bit difficult to understand for admins. You need a lot of time in order to become familiar with that. It is a little bit complicated and not too easy to understand. Its price can also be improved. Its price is higher than its competitors. McAfee also needs to have better cloud integration and more data centers in the EU. The cloud center should be in Europe or in Germany. In Germany, it is really important to have access to your data within the same country. Customer data needs to be placed and processed in the same country."
"Tech support is not as helpful as they were in the past."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The pricing is reasonable."
"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."
"The solution is too pricey."
"In comparison to other software solutions available on the market, it comes at a higher price point."
"I rate the solution's pricing a five out of ten. It costs around ₱2,200 per endpoint."
"Initial monies replacing all AVs with a single product is about £10k."
"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 tool’s cost has increased by almost 300% in two years."
"The initial price is very good as they give good initial discounts, but it seems a little expensive once you renew the license."
"The price of this product is good."
"It's fairly priced compared to other products on the market."
"There are some extra expenses for using the product, in addition to licensing related to the maintenance of the product."
"I think Trellix is more on the higher side of the market, just on a general scale, but I also think it depends on what particular package you choose."
"Trellix may cost around $46 to $47 for a single license without an EDR."
"The solution is not an expensive tool. Compared to other options, it's mostly average-priced. I've deployed it for customers ranging from 100 nodes to over 5,000 nodes. Its renewal prices are very low, and it offers both perpetual and subscription licenses. With a perpetual license, the product will keep working as long as it's not end-of-life, which benefits companies."
"The product is expensive."
