We performed a comparison between Check Point SandBlast Network and Fortinet FortiSandbox based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Advanced Threat Protection (ATP) solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The main feature of the solution is that it protects against malicious threats from the outside."
"We didn't really have any IPS before. So, Check Point has improved our security posture. People get used to doing things certain ways, which might not be the best or most secure way, and they can't do that now, which just requires more education of the user base. With the endpoint client, we've started to use Check Point for remote access."
"The most efficient and protective characteristics of Check Point's SandBlast solution are that we can see a lot of this protection at the network and mail levels."
"Threat extraction can help us to remove malicious content from documents by converting them to PDF."
"The product gives us advanced protection, including artificial intelligence and machine learning technologies and services."
"When our workers are downloading software, SandBlast Cloud is useful to emulate the downloads that the workers are doing. Then, there are no threats coming into the company."
"The Check Point SandBlast Network gives us incredibly good features."
"Preventing zero-day threats and extracting potential threats from incoming files with Threat Extraction is the most valuable feature for us."
"What I find most valuable, is that it is easy to use."
"The initial setup is straightforward."
"The solution is very good because it catches a lot of threats in emails."
"The product is great. It can be deployed on the cloud or on-premises."
"You have access to a report as to what behaviors the example file entered in the registry."
"The main benefit of Fortinet FortiSandbox is that it allows organizations to detect and prevent unknown threats from entering an infrastructure."
"It is a stable solution."
"Compared to other solutions, it's easy to configure and implement because of the templates. The timing of scanning files is faster."
"I would like to see some speed improvements, e.g., how quickly you can get through all the menus. It crashes sometimes because we push so much through it. Therefore, I would like to see more small things behind the scenes, such as, back-end stability in terms of the management application."
"There is a limit on the number of files that can be scanned in real-time, which could lead to us being found with our guard down on a high-traffic day."
"We would like to see this solution reach mobile devices more efficiently, through apps or more specific products."
"I imagine there will be improvements in later versions. There are hotfixes that come out all the time."
"Most of the time stability is okay, but sometimes, we're not able to contact the cloud. It won't last for long. The product could be faster."
"We have found a need for the application to be a bit more elastic, bringing it to SAS services and not IAS."
"The management of alerts could improve them a bit - especially in event management."
"Today, we have it as part of a solution or a package. However, we'd like there to be a way where we can have the solution's features available to us in a cheaper way in the future."
"Fortinet FortiSandbox can improve by decreasing the time of analysis response. Other solutions have a better response time, such as WildFire."
"When you reach the maximum capacity, you cannot upgrade the solution because its hardware is very expensive."
"It would be better if it had support for Mac and Linux."
"At least once a week we have a false alarm. This needs to be adjusted so that we get fewer of these occurrences."
"For the MSSPs, it would be great if the product could display all the threat chains on a dashboard since it is an area where the tool is currently lacking."
"If updated, Fortinet FortiSandbox could cover other risks."
"The initial setup of Fortinet FortiSandbox is complex. You cannot only deploy Fortinet FortiSandbox without deploying the stack of Fortinet solutions. The implementation and integration are challenging tasks with the device and placement in the network. We needed to do POC and offloading testing."
"The product is good but it could be speedier. In addition, it's quite complex."
