When you upgrade multiple times, you leave many files that are useless. They are dated, so it's always better to create a new machine every few versions, for example, three or four major versions.

Sentiment score
8.1
Check Point Security Management is stable, especially with updates, despite minor issues like process restarts and occasional console crashes.
From a reliability perspective, Anomali consistently injects threat feeds, works on automation, performs reliable API integrations, and supports enterprise scale globally.
Member Of Leadership Advisory Council at a tech company with 10,001+ employees
For example, while Microsoft allows ample time for users to adapt to deprecated features, Anomali only gave us three weeks before switching, so they need to be more cognizant of customer use cases from their engineering side.
Enterprise Security Architect V at FirstEnergy
The good thing is that they have a health check page, and if any issues arise, they notify us.

Room For Improvement

Anomali needs better AI-driven automation, integration, pricing, threat correlation, user experience, and improved dashboard, validation, and transparency.
Enhancements needed in usability, stability, integration, cost, log management, support, rule creation, cloud capabilities, documentation, and GUI for Check Point Security Management.
Combining all aliases into a coherent solution would be beneficial, as we had to review each individual source ourselves.

Anomali should increase their capability to fetch details from various dark web solutions where threat actors post compromised credentials.
Lead Cyber Threat Intelligence Incident Response Engineer & Security Engineer at a retailer with 10,001+ employees
Anomali's ability to correlate and integrate different Threat Intel platforms, such as Mandiant and PolySwarm, is another valuable feature, removing duplicacy and enabling the application of specific IOCs across various security controls.
Associate Consultant at a tech vendor with 1,001-5,000 employees
When the logs are too heavy for the security management server, the CPU spike will be high, causing our management day-to-day activity to lag or become difficult.
Cybersecurity Engineer at a tech services company with 11-50 employees
Refining reports and automation capabilities to make it more intuitive and scalable for diverse enterprise environments could improve Check Point Security Management.
IT Support at a security firm with 51-200 employees
Engaging role-based access control is essential; granular permissions for more flexible RBAC will allow the organization to delegate tasks.

Setup Cost

Anomali pricing is medium to high, with reasonable costs; threat feeds complicate budgeting, typically involving senior staff management.
Check Point offers competitive, high-value security management with flexible, cost-effective licensing, despite higher initial pricing than some competitors.
Pricing and licensing are good, but the costs for purchasing threat feeds are somewhat complicated and a bit on the higher side.

Strategic threat intelligence has improved detection speed and consistently reduces analyst workload
Anomali can be improved in various aspects. Its AI-driven automation can further advance, and AI-powered investigation summaries can improve. User experience could be enhanced through simplification of workflows. Better board-level cyber risk dashboards could provide easier visualization. Additionally, Anomali could work on simplifying the pricing structure. Although it excels in threat intelligence aggregation and operationalization, stronger GenAI capability, improved executive reporting, and a more intuitive workflow for analysts would further increase SOC efficiency and add more business value. Regarding Anomali's AI capabilities, governance and security are quite good. Anomali has incorporated AI and machine learning primarily to improve correlation and prioritization. These capabilities are valuable but could be more mature. The platform could achieve better threat correlation, prioritization, more anomaly detection, and allow AI to accelerate intelligence analysis while further improving quality and relevance. The accuracy and reliability of Anomali's AI output are fairly reasonable and good. The AI engine works well, but this capability could be improved. Better threat correlation with threat actors, certain indicators of compromise, malware, and campaigns is possible. Threat prioritization could increase, and alert noise could be reduced through further de-duplication. While reasonable, this is not the best available, and other products possibly have more AI maturity, such as Recorded Future and CrowdStrike Falcon.

Simplified threat detection and reduced policy deployment time
The standout features of Check Point Security Management are unified policy management, real-time visibility, and automation capabilities, making it a powerful tool for security management. Consistency across environments with Check Point Security Management helps me ensure that instead of maintaining separate rules for firewalls, cloud workloads, and data centers, we apply one unified policy that covers them all. This reduces misconfigurations and ensures compliance, proving to be a time-saver because rolling out a new rule or updating an existing one takes minutes, not hours, because it is propagated everywhere automatically. Automation is one of the most valuable aspects of Check Point Security Management, and it often does not get enough attention compared to headline features like unified policies or visibility. With policy automation, routine tasks such as rule creation, compliance checks, or policy updates can be automated, reducing human error and saving hours of manual work. Check Point Security Management has simplified administration in my organization because instead of juggling multiple consoles, everything is managed from a single pane of glass. This has reduced complexity and saved significant time for our IT team, improving our operational efficiency. For a policy update, I used to spend two or three hours across multiple consoles. Now, with unified management in Check Point Security Management, it takes thirty to forty minutes, resulting in about a seventy percent reduction in effort, greatly boosting productivity.
