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.

A tool that offers good UI and documentation
Webroot Business Endpoint Protection had sent me a physical installation medium, which was very easy to obtain and deploy. It was also easy to configure, and it had a nice UI. I didn't have any problems with the product. I think that Webroot Business Endpoint Protection is very transparent about the pricing models offered to users. The tool also maintains transparency about the features and specifications. Previously, when I compared the two products with Webroot Business Endpoint Protection, I saw that with Trend Micro, it is very difficult to transparently find out what it offers and how much it charges for it.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The solution does a pretty good job and is easy to use. I am the person maintaining the tool and only one person is required to maintain it. Their configuration portal is user-friendly and anyone can crack it with a little bit of knowledge."
"It is a very reliable antivirus."
"We like the sandbox feature."
"The best features Check Point Harmony Endpoint offers include outstanding visibility and user's control over the endpoint devices."
"The reporting feature where we can see and monitor what happened on our client computers is useful."
"It is a stable solution. My company has not received any complaints regarding the product's stability from our customers who use the solution."
"The traditional anti-malware engine is valuable."
"Forensic Analysis provides a complete analysis of threats via detailed reports."
"They have a lot of features integrated from way back, which shows that the product developers know exactly what they're doing."
"Webroot's tech support is pretty good; they've given me some pointers."
"I rate the initial setup phase a ten on a scale of one to ten, where one is difficult, and ten is easy."
"Low performance requirements."
"Speed"
"We've not had any issues with scalability. If an organization needs to expand, they can do so quite easily."
"The main reason we had Webroot is that it was cost-effective for our clients."
"It is very light. It is the only solution that can be installed on a machine that already has an antivirus. It is a pretty complete solution."
 

Cons

"The management in Check Point Harmony Endpoint could be improved."
"More posting of user feedback is requested across all websites and Google so that more traction can be attained. Seeing reviews helps create more confidence with clients and partners."
"We would like to have the ability to stop and restart the service remotely, which is something that we can do easily with Symantec but have a hard time with when using Check Point."
"Overall I didn't personally face any issues while implementing Check Point Antivirus."
"One area that requires improvement is the amount of audit logs the system can save, as it is currently limited to fourteen days."
"Tech Support must be better."
"It would be useful if you could also mark blocks as safe from a client. Now users always have to ask an admin to make exclusions."
"I would like to see them implement a system that would enable us to do certain things from our mobile like applying policies, opening up and blocking ports, and restricting connection. It is because IT personnel are not always around on the premises. We can instantly do these things from our mobile. They should also consider the price so that many people will go for the solution."
"We need to have a stronger defense against CryptoLock and other attackers."
"Since they're dealing with multi-core environments now, the best option would be for them to enhance the product so that the product can automatically do an assessment on the machine."
"An updated UI would be nice, but is not hardly used."
"Reporting system could be improved."
"Technical support is not the best. It's hard to get a hold of them if we need help. It's something that definitely needs improvement."
"Usually, when it comes to reliability, McAfee and Norton are at 99 percent. Webroot's percentage is lower. It is 94% reliable in terms of what it catches, but you're trading that percentage for customer satisfaction because your computer isn't being constantly told that it just blocked something, or it just did something."
"The only complaint I have with Webroot is its inability to prevent UoD phishing and its inability to check against bots or block anti-attacks. Plus the URL server is in zero-definition."
"It needs to improve the problems with the faster connection, and have a huge reduction in false positives."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"I bought them for 12 months and I genuinely cannot remember what I paid for them. I think it's about 100 pounds per user per year, so about 10 pounds a month per person."
"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."
"Price-wise, the product is affordable. There are no additional costs apart from the licensing charges that are attached to the product."
"We are paying 2,50,000 Sri Lankan Rupees annually which is the fixed charge."
"I rate the product price a four on a scale of one to ten, where one is low, and ten is high."
"Licensing comes free in that first year or is included in the base package. From a commercial point of view, it really just is the renewal cost, rather than a one-time fixed cost or buy-in."
"In addition to the standard licensing fees, there is a cost for support."
"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 think the price is fairly reasonable. I was really prepared to pay more, but the price is fine."
"We evaluate other options using multiple choices, best value, management and functionality."
"With Webroot Business Endpoint Protection, I can select a yearly billing cycle."
"From a pricing standpoint, I would rate it a four out of five."
"Our strategy was to overestimate the complexity and cost. It turned out that Webroot's assurance was justified."
"I can't recall the exact pricing, but I believe there is a monthly fee of $20-30 per user."
"Its cost is not much per month. Our price is a couple of bucks a user."
"The solution doesn't cost too much. It's about 30 Euros a year for each endpoint. It's pretty affordable for us and for many other companies."
