Check Point CloudGuard CNAPP Reviews

It is a good tool for a large enterprise operating across multiple cloud environments, like AWS, Azure, or a hybrid infrastructure. Check Point posture management gives you visibility across your entire cloud infrastructure, so it helps you with management, maintenance, and compliance. With visibility across all these cloud platforms, you can protect against compromised credentials or identity theft. 

The assessment history lets you test each environment for each rule you set. You can see if the security tests have passed or failed, then plan a roadmap ahead on how to strengthen your security to defend against attacks on your cloud environment.

I would be great to have additional features when it comes to vulnerability assessments in terms of how the solution discovers vulnerabilities or compromised workloads and not just on security configurations with customizable reports would be nice. 

I'm a system integrator and a managed service provider. I've been using CloudGuard for a couple of years.

So far it works and we've had no major issues with stability. When it comes to managing clouds or gaining visibility, generating, or scanning different cloud environments, it meets all the requirements, especially if you're going through a specific compliance audit.

When it comes to scaling up, it's very easy to just add licenses. But to prior implementing this solution, you need to have a good accounting of all your assets to onboard on this platform. CloudGuard is good for bigger, more complex cloud infrastructures. But if you have only one cloud infrastructure, I don't think you will see much advantage over other cloud posture management. That's why this is useful mainly for bigger enterprises with multiple cloud instances and different cloud environment providers. 

So far, they've met all the service-level agreements (SLAs) with no delay. When it comes to Check Point, they have local distributors to provide level one or level two support. For level two or level three, it will go directly to the Check Point support. And I think that's how their SLAs work. The first line of their support should be local. If it cannot be handled locally, it goes global Check Point support. 

Setup is usually simple. It's not hard to implement it and gain visibility across two or more cloud infrastructures. It's quite fast. As long as you have the right number of assets, workloads, and applications for each cloud environment, you can easily deploy CloudGuard.

In terms of pricing, it's in the middle but more on the high side. It's not steep. However, I think the price is right for its functionality and the value you get from it when you're managing multiple clouds. It solves a lot of your compliance problems.

The licensing model is based on the size of your cloud infrastructure. So to estimate what you will pay, you need to count each and every asset. And when I say assets, that means every application, database, server, or virtual network on your cloud infrastructure. 

I'd like to see more flexibility in their licensing model. It's based on assets, but we all know that assets keep on growing. I would recommend a flexible, upgradeable license, so when you add assets, they can easily bill you or upgrade you.

I rate CloudGuard a nine out of 10.

I recommend CloudGuard posture management for anyone who needs to take control of multiple cloud environments. It streamlines visibility, so this is the right tool if you are trying to meet a specific compliance standard or you're managing hundreds or thousands of servers within your cloud environment. It unifies your cloud environment. 

The most valuable feature of Check Point CloudGuard Posture Management is the training.

The security of Check Point CloudGuard Posture Management could improve. There are always new security issues coming out.

I have been using Check Point CloudGuard Posture Management for a few months.

Check Point CloudGuard Posture Management is a reliable solution.

The scalability of Check Point CloudGuard Posture Management is good.

The support from Check Point CloudGuard Posture Management is very good.

The initial setup of Check Point CloudGuard Posture Management difficulty depends on how you want to set it up. There are always some problems when you have to connect it to your cloud systems. However, this will only add time to the process.

Check Point CloudGuard Posture Management is always known as a good solution but an expensive one. When you're using Cisco, Check Point, or Palo Alto, you know that you will pay more, but you know that it will work.

I rate Check Point CloudGuard Posture Management an eight out of ten.

The most valuable feature is posture management, which gives you complete visibility of all your assets in the cloud and allows you to do governance and compliance.

CloudGuard could be improved by including integration with vendors other than AWS, especially Azure, especially in permissions. In the next release, I would like them to include some kind of online scanning on code in the development phase.

I've been working with this solution for two years.

CloudGuard is easy to implement.

For those looking into implementing CloudGuard, I would suggest contacting SharePoint professional services to get the job done easily. I would give CloudGuard a score of ten out of ten.

We resell the CloudGuard Workload Protection product. If a customer comes to us looking for a CSM tool, for example, we evaluate their needs and suggest a good option, like this solution.

The way they offer container security is a big highlight that I have noticed. The solution is also agentless, so the scanning, runtime, really everything is offered directly by CloudGuard.

The technical support could be better, but I do not know of any other needed improvements.

My company has been involved with this solution for almost one year.

This is a stable product. 

The solution is scalable.

I would rate technical support as an eight out of ten. It has some room for improvement. 

Positive

The initial setup is really easy. On a scale of one to five, I would rate it as a five.

If your company's environment is more developer-focused, meaning it has more containers and is running on Kubernetes, I would certainly recommend choosing Checkpoint.

Our primary use case of this solution is for compliance on the cloud and Check Point is very good for tracking that. We are resellers of Check Point CloudGuard and I'm the managing director of the company. 

I very much like the interface and visibility is good. 

I'd like to see improvements with the configuration. 

I've been using this solution for one year.

This is a stable solution. 

The initial setup was straightforward. 

We have a subscription that is paid annually. The cost is reasonable. 

I would recommend this product. 

I rate this solution a 10 out of 10.
