Check Point UTM-1 [EOL] Reviews Summary
Author infoRatingReview Summary
Consultant at ITQSI used Check Point UTM-1 as an on-premise firewall solution for network security, benefiting from features like intrusion prevention and VPN. While valuable, it required improvement in advanced threat protection, support, and documentation. We initially considered solutions from Palo Alto, Symantec, and Trend Micro.
Cloud Engineer at ITQS3.0I needed a unified solution to centralize security management, reduce costs, and consolidate independent products. Its best feature is centralizing all functions into a single device. The solution continually evolves, integrating previous firewall challenges into modern features like Harmony.
IT Group Supervisor at a tech services company with 201-500 employees3.0I found filtering good, but poor scalability due to licensing, mediocre stability, and very bad support meant it didn't suit my VPN needs. I ultimately switched products and advise knowing it well before buying.
CISO at Timestamp SGS3.5I find the UTM platform valuable and stable. However, the high cost, complex rule implementation, slow customer service, and poor VPN user experience led me to rate it 7/10.
Security Engineer at SOCITECH S.A.4.5I highly recommend Check Point for its robust, scalable, and secure centralized management. While stable, I believe its GUI needs improvement, and support resources are less accessible, making setup moderately complex.
RSSI at a legal firm with 501-1,000 employees4.0We primarily use this as a firewall, valuing its excellent stability, scalability, and logging for troubleshooting. While reporting could improve, the initial setup was straightforward. I highly recommend it, rating it 8/10, though we switched due to an embargo.
Chief Technology Officer at Triana Business Solutions Lda4.5We value this perimeter firewall for its policies, VPN, and improved email security. It's stable and scalable, but needs better cybersecurity enforcement and easier integration. Local support is a challenge. Despite this, we rate it 9/10.
System Administrator at LNMIIT4.5I find this security gateway stable and scalable, with excellent databases and signatures. While setup is easy and ROI is good, pricing is high. I recommend it, but wish for user limits and a DNS server.
