Doesn't have daily updates, which is important for healthcare IT
I face challenges with the exclusion policy - it still scans folders we told it not to, causing issues. When we contact support, they tell us to update the latest agent, but we can't do that immediately due to medical device protocols and validation testing. I wish support would try to understand our issues better instead of giving this standard response. The machine learning feature they use often tells us to upgrade the agent or add things to the exclusion list, which isn't unacceptable. It's a very good and new technology as a tool and antivirus. But sometimes, it doesn't work properly with our medical devices and products, quarantining files it shouldn't even after we add them to exclusions. This is tricky for us.

Dashboard customization is needed for improvements. While the centralized management is strong, the dashboard could offer more flexibility. It would be helpful to tailor views for different roles, such as IT or security support. Regarding needed improvements, custom report building could be enhanced. Current reports are informative, and a drag-and-drop builder would allow teams to create tailored views for compliance, executive summaries, or operational metrics. For further improvements, enhancing threat simulation and testing would be valuable. Building a threat simulation tool and adding native capabilities to simulate phishing, malware, or ransomware scenarios will help teams validate protection and train users without relying on third-party tools.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"​Very easy to deploy. It can be done one by one or deployed by customizing an MSI file for GPO push.​"
"Does malware analysis. Blocks WannaCry and other attacks that have come out."
"Has good RAM capacity for the power I need"
"Blackberry Protect offers endpoint protection. It's easy to deploy. It's scalable and stable."
"It is extremely simple to manage and deploy."
"The non-daily requirement to update signatures is the most valuable feature. From a functional point of view, it is pretty spot on. For instance, we compared an algorithm from five years ago to today's algorithm, and it was 98% accurate. It has the ability to detect and mitigate. In the industrial environment that we work in, there's what we call OT versus IT. You are IT Central, but this is OT. Generally, we don't have the same level of skillset as IT individuals or IT professionals have. This particular product doesn't require you to be a computer scientist to be able to understand its proprietary algorithm and to be able to deploy, use, and work within it. It integrates well with a robust SIEM or SOAR solution, and it plays nice with others. We use other detection solutions like CyberX or site provision with Cisco, and it plays nice. That's one of the things we really liked about it."
"The most functional item that we use is the process to turn off the false flags that it causes."
"Its setup is simple if you have a Windows device; it is executable."
"Data security analytics enable us to prepare and take suitable precautions before landing in trouble and exposing confidential information."
"They have a great knowledge base that you can leverage as a user."
"The product is stable."
"It generates enough visibility in terms of what happens on our equipment."
"Check Point Antivirus has positively impacted our organization by protecting our systems and computers, saving time, costs, and preventing data loss."
"The platform's most valuable features are the ability to build API, which meets our business requirements, and the VPN client, which provides VPN access from a single client."
"They have a better endpoint catchment rate due to their reliability."
"Check Point Harmony Endpoint has significantly strengthened the defense against malware, ransomware, phishing, and zero-day threats, and the unified agent ensures consistent protection across all endpoints."
 

Cons

"I'd like them to do software distribution too, but they said that that's architecturally not at the product line."
"The OPTICS component could be made more user-friendly with respect to giving people more information."
"CylancePROTECT's dashboard could be more user-friendly."
"I would like to see them fix the alerting system so that the endpoint reporting is a bit more streamlined."
"Reporting is an area with shortcomings in CylancePROTECT that needs to be improved."
"It is hard to manage."
"The high price of the product is an area of concern where improvements are required. The product's price should be more competitive."
"I would like to see a better UI in terms of sifting through more specific data and providing analytics. A little bit more would be nice."
"I'm not very happy with the support, even in terms of the website. They don't offer much."
"What's missing in Check Point Antivirus is the EDL feature."
"The next release should consider a strong threat detection mechanism that can categorize various levels of attacks for faster analysis."
"It gives you an alert for malicious sites, which, after searching on the Google database, don't come out to be the same."
"Check Point Harmony Endpoint's setup is a little bit complex at first, and the console can feel overwhelming until you get used to it."
"We would like to see better guides in the future with more concrete examples of the best practices."
"The Infinity Portal login is "iffy" at times."
"The remote deployment with Check Point Endpoint Security requires improvement. We have to depend on some of their deployment tools. I would like a system endpoint protection management tool or a remote deployment tool."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Review closely how many endpoints you actually need before buying into a pricing level. Deal and deal with the VAR of your choice."
"The tool is not that expensive."
"Currently, we have competitive pricing for Cylance, which is affordable enough to consider."
"This cost of the license is approximately $5 USD monthly per user."
"The solution's pricing is around the same as most EDRs but slightly behind some of the major ones."
"The license price for this solution could be better. It's on the expensive side."
"​Shop around for sure and be assured the price you pay will be close to other solutions available, but even at a slight mark-up from the other solutions, you are getting real endpoint protection versus nothing more than a cheap security blanket that might keep you warm at night."
"My company is on a yearly CylancePROTECT subscription. Price-wise, the solution is slightly expensive, so I'd rate it as eight out of ten."
"Check Point Harmony Endpoint is cost effective."
"Check Point Harmony Endpoint is an expensive solution. My company's clients pay INR 1,000 for each user of the product, while Check Point also provides an option to pay INR 2,300 for three years."
"The product is averagely priced. The product price is neither very high nor too low. The tool is not really expensive."
"In addition to the standard licensing fees, there is a cost for support."
"We pay on an annual basis. There are no additional fees, they mostly tell us what we have to pay. We have budgeted for it."
"In comparison to other software solutions available on the market, it comes at a higher price point."
"Check Point Antivirus is an expensive solution, especially for clients that don't have as many endpoints. Check Point Antivirus has a free trial for one month, and within the trial period, there's no limit to the number of endpoints it can support, but when the trial expires, you'll have to buy the license, which covers one year. You can't buy a license for the solution without being a Check Point partner first."
"Check Point Antivirus is the most economical solution."
