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.

Reliable with good independent modules and a straightforward setup
I'd rate the solution seven out of ten. Having used Trend Micro as well, I would rate Trend Micro higher. However, I would still choose this product as a second option. When we recommend a product, we would recommend something based on the fit of the product and customer requirements. We worked with Defender, we worked with Trend Micro, and we worked with McAfee. All of them almost overlap in multiple use cases. That said, we do see the customer IT strategy and where they're going, and they are adopting Azure more. We know there are certain limitations in their landscape where there may be some old legacy systems, and in that case, then we would either switch back to McAfee or Trend Micro instead of Defender.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"It's easy to scale as needed."
"The zero-day threat prevention is excellent."
"They have a great knowledge base that you can leverage as a user."
"The communication with the console is very dynamic and remote, without the need to return to the computer locally."
"It is easy to install from the cloud."
"It's a scalable product as it is a cloud offering."
"The technical support is good."
"Before we used this solution, our mail was blacklisted. Now we are white listed by all organizations, including Google. Also the security of our institution has really improved."
"The activation of features within ENS and the collection of threats into a single console is a strong point."
"Technical support is excellent."
"The most valuable feature is the integration between environments."
"Trellix Endpoint Security has a full suite of DLP."
"MVISION Endpoint is so much easier and so much simpler for the lay security personnel to handle."
"Trellix integrates well with most SIEM and data classification solutions."
"The most valuable features of McAfee MVISION Endpoint are advanced threat protection, web filtering, and removable storage devices in the DLP."
"The most valuable feature of the solution is its dashboard."
 

Cons

"Areas that have room for improvement are the scope of the product and, while I think the support is good, they can improve support as well."
"Tech Support must be better."
"Unfortunately, the web (cloud) management system and log search performance are quite bad."
"Enhanced behavioral analytics would provide a deeper understanding of endpoint activities, fortifying our defenses against sophisticated cyber adversaries."
"Endpoint vulnerability management is one of the modules I believe is missing and it is something that is required."
"They should also add new functions such as threat hunting."
"Check Point Harmony Endpoint's agent is a bit heavy."
"Infinity Portal sometimes requires more performance."
"They could provide better integration capabilities for the product with other services."
"Sometimes, one might face issues with the scalability of the product. The aforementioned area can be considered for improvement."
"The price of McAfee MVISION Endpoint could improve."
"I would like to see more local integration for the applications that we use."
"The solution lacks device control."
"Impacts performance of the servers quite negatively."
"They could also increase or improve the scalability because to my knowledge the biggest bandwidth can only support up to 10 gigs of input."
"The technical support needs some improvement. When product distribution errors occur, we have to contact technical support, which is a very tedious task."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"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."
"I rate Check Point Harmony Endpoint's pricing a seven out of ten because it is a little high."
"There are three different licensing models including basic, advanced, and complete, and it needs to be selected according to the endpoint."
"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."
"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 tool’s cost has increased by almost 300% in two years."
"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."
"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."
"Trellix Endpoint Security (ENS) has a reasonable price."
"I don't think there are any extra expenses besides its licensing costs."
"The pricing is mid-ranged and quite reasonable compared to other similar products."
"The current pricing is much better than before because they now offer product-related promotions along with some changes in product licensing. The new pricing model is better than before."
"It is based on an annual subscription."
"They should reduce the cost or make it free, open-source software."
"Licensing fees are billed on a yearly basis."
"We are on an annual subscription for McAfee MVISION Endpoint. The cost for the license could be less expensive."
