Good monitoring and visibility with compliance capabilities
Pros and Cons
  • "It is easy to install from the cloud."
  • "Simplifying the user interface and making it more intuitive can enhance usability; this is more beneficial for those who are new to the industry and lack knowledge about threats."

What is our primary use case?

We use this solution for our desktops, laptops, servers, and selective mobile devices. It offers real-time protection against malware and other malicious threats is superb. 

Our previously used antivirus has not been able to identify certain threats. Check Point Harmony did it. That is a key highlight of this product. Check Point Harmony Endpoint includes a firewall component that allows us to enforce network security policies at the endpoint level, including application control, network segmentation, VPN enforcement, etc.

How has it helped my organization?

We can now see the performance of the computers. Previously, we used some other applications where we could see the CPU percentage go increasingly high. Compared to that, this solution is good. 

Check Point Harmony Endpoint helps us ensure endpoint compliance with security policies and regulatory requirements by enforcing configuration settings. 

Moreover, It provides visibility into endpoint activities and enables security teams to detect, investigate, and respond to security incidents in real-time. So business progress never gets disturbed. 

What is most valuable?

It monitors endpoint behavior in real-time to identify and block suspicious activities indicative of malware or malicious behavior. This proactive approach helps us a lot. 

It employs sandboxing technology to execute suspicious files in a controlled environment and analyze their behavior. This allows it to identify and block malware that may evade traditional detection methods by remaining dormant or obfuscated. 

More importantly, it is easy to install from the cloud. 

What needs improvement?

Simplifying the user interface and making it more intuitive can enhance usability; this is more beneficial for those who are new to the industry and lack knowledge about threats. 

Enhancements in compliance management and reporting capabilities could help organizations meet regulatory requirements more effectively and streamline audit processes. 

Continuously updating and enriching threat intelligence feeds and research capabilities can improve threat detection and prevention accuracy and effectiveness.

For how long have I used the solution?

I've used the solution for over a year.

What do I think about the stability of the solution?

Check Point is a well established cybersecurity vendor with a long history of developing and maintaining security solutions. Harmony Endpoint benefits from this experience and is built on a solid foundation of technology and best practices. That i believe. 

What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

The centralized management console enables efficient management of endpoint security across the entire organization, irrespective of its size. Administrators can easily configure policies, deploy updates, and monitor endpoint activities from a single interface, streamlining management at scale.

How are customer service and support?

Customer service should be improved. 

How would you rate customer service and support?

Positive

Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?

Check Point Harmony has fould a suspicious file that the previous application did not discover (that file was in the system for a period as alogic bomps).

How was the initial setup?

The initial setup was straightforward and easy.

What about the implementation team?

We handled the setup in-house.

What was our ROI?

We've noted ROI in Risk Reduction and have noted:

  • Productivity gains
  • Compliance cost reduction
  • Operational efficiency
  • Security consolidation
  • Incident response cost reduction

What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?

Compared to other service providers, the price is a bit high. That said, it is worth the price. 

Which other solutions did I evaluate?

We did evaluate McAfee and Norton. 

What other advice do I have?

The solution is good, hence I'm more concerned about the pricing. It would be good if that can be been reduced. 

Which deployment model are you using for this solution?

On-premises

If public cloud, private cloud, or hybrid cloud, which cloud provider do you use?

We have stress-tested the tool. We've pushed a lot of requests to it, and it seems to be working fine.

What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

I think we will reach a limit once we get more traffic. But we don't expect that to happen on our current network. However, we would have to move to the next version regarding scalability. They have different tiers in their models with different performance levels. So we pitch in regards to current plus fifty percent. If we exceed that, we must go to the next level and buy the next product. My company has 150-200 users. I operate this with a team of two people. One is a primary, and the other is a secondary. It's extensively used, and we're always configuring and tuning it.

How are customer service and support?

We're paying for premium support, but it's worth its weight in gold because they are very quick. They understand things easily and come back to you with solutions very quickly. They reply quickly and know their stuff, which makes them easy to work with. They help us when we have problems and ensure they understand what we need.

How was the initial setup?

The setup of Check Point Antivirus can be straightforward or complex, depending on your familiarity with the product. Once you're familiar with it, the interface is easy to configure.

The deployment process was quick for us. We configured it using configuration files. We completed the configuration within four days, including a trial version over one weekend and production the following weekend.

What about the implementation team?

We relied on our in-house expertise for the deployment. However, the support provided by Check Point Antivirus was outstanding.

What was our ROI?

The return on investment is positive. Check Point Antivirus is not only securing our network but also simplifying management and facilitating changes.

What other advice do I have?

I rate the overall product a nine out of ten. My advice is that you get what you pay for. While it may cost more, Check Point Antivirus offers a fully mature, professional-grade product. This means you can trust that it's doing its job of securing our network. With Check Point Antivirus, you have peace of mind knowing that if something goes wrong, support is available.

Good real-time endpoint analysis, great blocking mechanisms, detects malware effectively
Pros and Cons
  • "The dashboard is user-friendly and easy to understand."
  • "We have observed some policies are not working as expected."

What is our primary use case?

We use the solution for multiple purposes such as endpoint protection, organizational malware attack tracking and maintaining, blocking of IP addresses, domain and URL blocking, and prevention and detection, according to the purposes we follow. 

Check Point is the best in the marketplace for next-generation firewalls. In combination with Endpoint Security, it proves to be stable, error-free, and up-to-date with the latest fixes and solutions available. 

How has it helped my organization?

Earlier in our organization there was normally an antivirus which was used to check endpoint protection and policies according to what was applied. However, the detection of endpoints was not up to date with real-time analysis. 

There is a lot of gap in analysis. The malware reports and signatures were not updated in real-time. There was no blocking of Suspicious URLs or domains in real-time. As we using Check Point in DMZ. We purchased the license and implemented it in the UAT zone for the best outcome as per the organization's requirements.

What is most valuable?

The most valuable aspects of the solution are the real-time endpoint analysis and blocking mechanism, the detection of malware and threats is the best use of this technology. 

As we have the stability of this product and best practices solution is applied to the infrastructure as endpoints have a clear view of the statistics and performance. 

Also, we have monitored the server level where it's been protected from the outside world. The CPU, memory, and hard disk consumption and compromisation are good. 

The dashboard has also been user-friendly and easy to understand.  

What needs improvement?

Check Point is the best in the marketplace. As the EDR [Endpoint Harmony] there is a lot of enhancement in fixing the solution. We have observed some policies are not working as expected. We have observed a few cosmetic issues as well, however, it's fine. 

Minor release should improve the stability and overall performance of the endpoint solution. Consumption of the endpoint solution should have clear visibility on day-to-day operation tasks that are being carried out also we should monitor the malicious IP address and URL for blocking the same.

For how long have I used the solution?

I've used the solution for four or more years.

What do I think about the stability of the solution?

The stability is the best in the marketplace.

What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

The scalability is the best in the marketplace.

Moderately priced, easy to configure, and good support
Pros and Cons
  • "Check Point Antivirus is easy to configure."
  • "Check Point Antivirus could be improved by having the gateway automatically run a packet capture on the traffic so that it can be easily uploaded to TAC in the event that there is a false positive or if the traffic is required for further investigation."

What is our primary use case?

Check Point Antivirus Blade is enabled on all of our HA clusters throughout the world. The primary use case for this product is to protect our end-users while working physically in the office or remotely. It monitors all traffic in and out of the organization to detect known threats such as malware. Functionality is limited without HTTPS inspection as the blade will just look at SRC/DST traffic rather than be able to do packet inspections on actual traffic. It is great that it is included in the base FW license.

How has it helped my organization?

Check Point Antivirus has improved our organization by being able to identify known threats and actively drop connections to ensure our users remain secure. It leverages the Bogus DNS endpoint from Check Point to redirect traffic destined for known threats and doesn't require a lot of admin overhead to configure or tune based on the organization's needs. An added bonus is Check Points "Threat Cloud" which all of its gateways talk to so that attacks that are detected in one customer's environment are updated and would be blocked automatically within another environment. 

What is most valuable?

Check Point Antivirus is easy to configure. We enable the blade in the SMS for the gateway and that's pretty much it. You can get into the nitty gritty and fine-tune some of the settings to fit your organization better than the default settings, however, personally, I have yet to do this and it is working as expected in my organization. It is also great that this is not an add-on license and is included with the low-tier licensing which helps to reduce the overall cost to the organization while increasing the value of the product.

What needs improvement?

Check Point Antivirus could be improved by having the gateway automatically run a packet capture on the traffic so that it can be easily uploaded to TAC in the event that there is a false positive or if the traffic is required for further investigation. I have had a few times where something was detected as being a false positive and TAC requested so much information that in all honesty, was not worth my time to collect as the URL being blocked was a simple webpage that, based on my analysis, the IP was previously being used for malicious intent and was now a legitimate business however was still being blocked by the blade.

For how long have I used the solution?

I've used the solution for five years. 

What do I think about the stability of the solution?

We have not had any performance issues.

What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

It is easy to scale and enable on SGs as long as they are managed by the same SMS.

How are customer service and support?

Support has improved over the years.

How would you rate customer service and support?

Positive

Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?

No previous solution was utilized. This solution has been in place on the SGs since they were installed.

How was the initial setup?

The setup is straightforward. It is enabled from the SMS and it works.

What about the implementation team?

We managed the setup of the solution in-house.

What was our ROI?

The ROI is revealed by the fact that it protects end-users.

What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?

Check Point in general is moderately priced compared to competitors.

Which other solutions did I evaluate?

We evaluated Palo Alto and Fortigate.

Which deployment model are you using for this solution?

Overall, my experience with the product is great, and it's a perfect endpoint solution for multiple purposes. 

The solution can be made lightweight in order to keep the systems more effective during the background operations of the scanning and security checks. 

The user interface of reporting dashboard needs to improve for a better understanding of the end users and the administrators.

An easy-to-use and stable solution
Pros and Cons
  • "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."
  • "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."

What needs improvement?

The solution has a mobile monitoring system called WatchTower that you can link to a mobile. It would be great if they could add an antivirus feature so that we can monitor individual TCS activities too. Anyone willing to use this solution can certainly do so. The tool is very easy to use and the approach to security and updates is very good. Implementing policies and rules on-premises is also very user-friendly with the solution. Moreover, we can direct three to four billings together. If one ISP goes down, the second one automatically picks up. People wouldn’t even know that their internet has dropped. This kind of technology with low latency is very advantageous.

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 reducing the price so that more people will go for the solution.

For how long have I used the solution?

I have been using the tool for almost two years.

What do I think about the stability of the solution?

The tool is stable.

What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

The tool is scalable. There are roughly 60 users for the solution in our company.

How are customer service and support?

I have not contacted the tech support team directly. I contacted them through the Check Point dealers in Sri Lanka. They have technicians who assist us. I contacted them several times to understand some settings during the installation of the tool in the system.

Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?

I have used Kaspersky and found Check Point to be better. There was an incident with Kaspersky when a person clicked on an email-generated ransomware and it got onto the system. Kaspersky couldn’t protect against the attacks and the ransomware spread. However, when the system was monitored by Check Point, the firewall protected it from downloading any malicious files. Hence, Check Point is doing a better job than Kaspersky. The only advantage that Kaspersky has over Check Point is the price since it is cheaper than Check Point. 

Kaspersky costs below 50,000-40,000 Sri Lankan Rupees.

How was the initial setup?

The deployment of the solution is straightforward.

What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?

We are paying 2,50,000 Sri Lankan Rupees annually which is the fixed charge.

What other advice do I have?

I would rate the solution a nine out of ten. 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.

Good monitoring, increased efficiency, and helps lower expenses
Pros and Cons
  • "It has an inbuilt AI system that helps in diffusing the virus in a proactive manner and protects the system from getting damaged at the worst level."
  • "They need to add more and more features in the trial version and significantly reduce the pricing for the standard annual subscriptions for the benefit of all."

What is our primary use case?

Check Point Antivirus is a one-stop solution for detecting endpoints and malware and diffusing them immediately upon detection. 

They are ranked the world's number four anti-malware tool with a high catchment rate of viruses and improved efficiency for a better outcome for small, marginal, and bigger organizations. 

Check Point Antivirus has received a lot of good peer feedback publicly, and this improves its transparency and credibility to a great extent. Its efficiency is worth welcoming, and due to its improved performance and no lags during functioning, it is highly recommended.

How has it helped my organization?

Check Point Antivirus has improved the overall efficiency of our laptops and other e-devices end to end, as now we can handle fast attack resolution against ransomware and malware. 

It monitors our network and devices throughout and brings the best endpoint protection for our systems and servers. 

The organization has significantly reduced and cut down on expenses due to the wide benefits of the software and also its sustainable use and requirements. It has helped organizations to scale properly without any issues related to malware and ransomware attacks

What is most valuable?

The speedy catchment rate of endpoints and malware is exceptionally good and act as a precursor for organizations in order to deploy this antivirus and secure the system and servers in a proactive manner without any trouble. 

It has an inbuilt AI system that helps in diffusing the virus in a proactive manner and protects the system from getting damaged at the worst level.

The pricing is also quite affordable for marginal organizations as well, and their improved efficiency is great. Signing and renewing of MoUs were not difficult at all. They are a good stakeholder to work with.

What needs improvement?

I strongly feel that the extension of the trial version of the antivirus should be extended with more features included so that new users may test the software at its best. A thoroughly informed buyer can make a decision in a sound manner which creates a win-win situation for both Check Point and the client.

They need to add more and more features in the trial version and significantly reduce the pricing for the standard annual subscriptions for the benefit of all.
