Check Point Harmony Endpoint Reviews

My primary use case for Check Point Harmony EDR would be to get broader visibility in the environment. For instance, a pre-detection was done by Check Point Harmony when there was an attack happening. It pre-detected and remediated immediately before it got spread in the environment. The best part is the system was not in the office network but still got detected and remediated automatically.                                                                                                     

The insight and visibility of the detection is good.  

As such there is nothing I can think of additional features.

The services of EDR consumption should be reduced and the support needs to be improved.

I have using Harmony for the past two years.

Stability is impressive.

Scalability is good.

Support is good.

Positive

The setup was straightforward.

The implementation happened in-house team.

The licensing and costs are good. 

We use the product at the perimeter. Since we do not have a branch, only one area is protected by the solution. The networks we have are in a compact area.

I love the product’s flexibility. We can manage the blade without changing the protocols. It is easy to manage how the tool runs the network. The product is easy to deploy. It’s a good firewall. It supports most of our OS, such as Linux and Windows. We can use it even on mobile devices. The browser and data protection are good. The solution has good threat intelligence features.

The network monitoring features must be improved. If my ISP says that they gave me 300 Mbps, I would like to see where the network is used the most and where we are underutilizing it. I need features to monitor the bandwidth. I want features to monitor the upload and download speeds.

I have been using the solution for the last three years.

The technical support is good. I was working on some backups of a hospital management system to the cloud. Check Point provided us with very good support.

Positive

The pricing is very high. The tool’s cost has increased by almost 300% in two years.

I will recommend the tool to others. Overall, I rate the solution eight and a half out of ten.

The solution is used for port protection and media encryption.

Our customers are satisfied with the Harmony environment. The remote support is good. If the users forget their passwords, the remote support helps them reset the password. It is a good feature. We only need an internet connection for it.

The heartbeat interval must be improved. Sometimes, when we change the policy in the console, it does not reflect in the endpoint. Sometimes, we find it difficult to change the policy. The tool lags sometimes.

When we change the user password in the Infinity Portal, the password does not sync on time. There is a one-minute heartbeat interval from the server to the console. We have a graphical UI in threat hunting in which we can see the attacks. If audit logs have a similar graphical UI, it will be easier to analyze the logs.

I have been using the solution for seven months.

I rate the tool’s stability an eight out of ten.

The scalability and integrity are above average. I rate the scalability an eight or nine out of ten. We have deployed the product for 500 endpoints. We have deployed it on 300 to 400 endpoint machines in other places.

Initially, we had some issues installing the agent on the endpoint machines. We didn't know the prerequisites of the endpoint machines. We had blue screen and red screen issues. It was new for us, and we were stuck. The support was very helpful. The team identified the issue and asked us to update Windows. We had to have the recommended version of Windows for deploying the agent. Now, we do not face any issues. If we face any problems, we easily recognize the issue. We are a bit autonomous.

Neutral

The initial deployment was very challenging because I was new to the product. Later on, I got used to it. It was very easy. I ensured everything was according to the customers’ requirements. It took hardly two weeks to deploy.

The pricing is reasonable. It is very good for security. We are focused on security. If the security is strong, we do not mind the price. The customers blindly trust the product.

Our customers were using Trend Micro.

We haven’t deployed the antivirus yet. We’re trying to implement AV on Windows. Currently, AV is deployed on a Linux machine. When I implemented it, I didn't have any idea about the product. I just went through some documents. People who want to use the solution must go through the documents and understand the concepts. Overall, I rate the product a nine out of ten.

We continue to offer our support solutions to other companies as requested. I focus on cyber security, specifically specializing in detecting malware in text and searching for remote access or reverse channels on computers.

This software incorporates security AI features and effectively manages bandwidth with its DRS capabilities. However, there's still room for improvement and the addition of more features. Nevertheless, in the broader market landscape, it's considered one of the leading products. While there might be some competition from others like Cisco, it remains a strong choice. The feature lies in mapping and providing top-notch malware protection.

Perhaps the software could be made more resource-efficient. While many improvements come to mind, I don't have them readily available. Essentially, I aim to enhance the software's efficiency so that it places fewer demands on computer resources.

I have been working with Check Point Harmony Endpoint for the past two years.

It is a stable solution and I would rate it seven out of ten.

It isn’t very scalable since I wasn't able to bypass the security a couple of times. I would rate it a six out of ten. 

I would rate it a six out of ten because it could have been easier. It might be somewhat challenging due to the numerous policies in place. For instance, it's more straightforward for me when users can easily set up policies because they come built-in. However, with Check Point, you do have the option to create custom policies. I'm not entirely certain if it's a strict either/or situation, as there might be some flexibility. Nonetheless, having a predefined "zero one" option can make it easier for users, as they don't necessarily have to customize policies themselves.

The deployment takes long enough.

Currently, this software stands out as one of the top choices in the field. It's undoubtedly a strong contender for enhancing computer security, and while there are various other products available, this one ranks among the best.

I recommend the solution, but I would rate it a six out of ten, mainly because the software requires considerable resources and can strain less powerful computers. It tends to impact system efficiency, especially on computers with weaker hardware, causing frequent restarts and putting a significant load on the CPU and memory.

We deployed this product to harmonize our products and have one central access point. 

It helps us to set security features that protect the computing devices from malware attacks. 

It gives me an opportunity to manage applications that works on various workflows centrally. 

Integration with all employee devices has enabled my team to monitor the security situation and put in place emergency measures in case of any threat.

It blocks safe URLs sometimes when there are network interruptions. 

The cost of deployment varies with the existing working conditions and the organization's size. 

The cloud networking infrastructure can be attacked if there are limited security features and poor monitoring capacity from the IT team. 

The overall performance impressed my team. Check Point Harmony Endpoint is the sure deal for enterprise security coverage and computing device control.

I've used the solution for ten months.

It is stable in the provision of reliable security.

I am impressed by the performance of this product.

The customer support staff is ever supportive.

Positive

I have not used a similar solution previously.

The initial setup procedure was straightforward.

There was high-level expertise from the vendor team during implementation.

There has been a positive ROI since we deployed it.

The setup cost and licensing terms vary according to enterprise size.

I evaluated several options. This platform was the best.

I recommend the implementation of this platform in other organizations.

Harmony Endpoint helps the company to protect devices from phishing attacks. 

It offers instant notification when it senses any form of external threat that can compromise data. 

It can be easily deployed on both mobile and desktop devices. 

The product has saved my team a lot of time and resources during the project implementation process. 

It responds quickly to data threats that can leak internal information into an unsafe environment. We have accomplished many projects and submitted them successfully to our clients without any challenges since deploying Harmony Endpoint.

This solution provides threat intelligence to all sectors to enhance effective planning and decision-making before we get into trouble. 

It monitors data flow across the networking system to enhance comprehensive workflow infrastructure. 

Real-time monitoring provides essential tools for security configurations that cannot be interfered with by ransomware attacks easily. This is the best solution, far from other related software in attack prediction and threat analysis. It is cloud-based, and teams across the organization find it to be more flexible for real-time analytics.

Network monitoring provides the best reports based on real-time performance, which helps our members locate any drawbacks across the workflow system.

The threat response system from the user dashboard blocks malware attacks that can affect email and the flow of information among colleagues. 

Endpoint protection is fundamental in security enhancement; it's effectively protecting our devices from internet viruses.

The application investigation system enables the IT team to come up with reliable reports on the cause and prevention measures that can be adapted to prevent any future attacks.

The system has comprehensive data management features that have saved us from incurring unplanned losses. 

Timely updates and suitable configurations can block malware attacks and provide effective reports on security situations. 

The setup process was complicated, however, when the customer service team came in, they provided productive guidelines that have kept the system working efficiently. 

The next release should consider a strong threat detection mechanism that can categorize various levels of attacks for faster analysis.

I've used the solution for 18 months.

This platform is highly stable, and the performance is awesome.

The scalability has impressed all relevant teams.

The customer service team is passionate about their work, and they provide timely responses.

Positive

I have not worked with other related products.

The setup was straightforward. We had assistance from the customer support team.

implementation took place through the vendor team.

The targeted ROI has been achieved since we deployed the application.

The setup and cost depend on the number of devices that have to be secured.

I evaluated Intercept X Endpoint. However, it did not impress the entire team.

I am satisfied with the current performance and I thoroughly recommend Harmony Endpoint to other business enterprises.

We're using this for our endpoint protection in terms of antivirus and malware protection, disk encryption, and URL and application filtering on our client computers.

We integrate the VPN feature with Check Point's firewall allowing our clients to access internal resources with security policies enforced and controlled.

The reports given by the software are also a benefit since it allows better management and control of access to all our client computers at any time from anywhere.

The web console is also nice.

We have all our information and policies on one platform for all the features, and we can assign our technicians' several permissions and roles on the product.

Our customers are also better protected, and we can guarantee that security policies are enforced and compliant in each one of them.

Security has been a significant focus for us, and Harmony Endpoint, together with the entire Check Point ecosystem, made it easy for our organization to enforce such policies.

We value the URL and app filtering of the platform.

The URL filtering and application control are very helpful since it's typically hard to block productivity loss apps/URLs on clients when abroad. Harmony made it easy to control the usage of the company resources and bandwidth.

Disk encryption is a nice feature if you don't have other systems. However, since we've already had BitLocker deployed, we saved a few dollars on this licensing type.

The license plans are also very nice and distributed - allowing for a separation between types of users with more basic or more advanced options.

Customization of UI should be a little better in terms of application UI and messages that are displayed when something is blocked or non-compliant. URL filtering should allow for time-based rules, for example, don't allow media streaming during work hours yet allow it on weekends.

The same applies to application control. When in our headquarters, we can solve this on the Check Point Firewall. However, the Harmony client does not support this type of condition, and we had to find a "middle ground" between policies and usability for our clients.

We've been using this solution for two years.

We did use Microsoft Defender. It lacked features, and therefore we moved away from the solution.

I'd advise users to try to implement BitLocker for disk encryption since it's free.

We did not evaluate other options. 

This software enhances the security of our remote workforce. It creates safe collaboration routes that cyber attacks cannot compromise. Data safety and communication infrastructure have been well maintained since we deployed this software. 

Endpoint protection has enabled teams to complete projects faster and monitor workflows efficiently. 

It has automated security protocols to cover the wide networking area in the enterprise. Check Point Harmony Endpoint has deployed comprehensive security that prevents any external attacks that may be a threat to our internal policies.

This software has quashed many security threats that could affect operations and slow down production. 

When sending emails to my colleagues, it detects any virus and blocks any spam that may be shared. It is flexible and gives the IT team full access and control during deployment. 

We have been able to attain security compliance and requirements for an excellent working environment. 

The entire organization has been doing well since we deployed this software due to safe collaboration channels and improved security data awareness.

The total cost of ownership has enabled the company's teams to identify any areas with security weaknesses and appropriately assign security models. 

The log4j-related attacks blocking system detects any vulnerable endpoints in advance. 

Identifying ransomware behaviors has upgraded the security monitoring system and put measures in place to curb such threats. 

When browsing, it blocks phishing sites that may hack personal data and leak to internet cyber criminals. 

The endpoint behavioral guard identifies online threats that easily prevent credential theft that may lead to funding theft.

The current performance of Check Point Harmony Endpoint has impressed all the sectors in the organization.

Configuration with some applications did not take place effectively due to setup complications. 

Interpreting the threat intelligence sensors may lead to poor data tabulation and slow performance. 

The cost of deployment and maintenance is high, and many small enterprises may not be able to afford premium subscriptions. 

The set security enhancement objectives have been achieved, and internet threats have been blocked effectively. I totally recommend this software to other organizations for reliable endpoint protection.

I've used the solution for two years.
