Harish (Kumar) - PeerSpot reviewer
Cybersecurity And Information Governance Head at Aeren
Email security has blocked sophisticated phishing and now protects inboxes with AI detection
The only challenge with Check Point Email Security (formerly Harmony Email & Collaboration) is that it is an API-based solution. In an API-based solution, the major challenge is that it can read email content and Google Drive content. This presents a data privacy challenge, and we had to mitigate it by signing a Data Processing Agreement and other agreements. Because it is not a traditional in-line solution, Check Point Email Security (formerly Harmony Email & Collaboration) connects with Google Workspace using API permission and can access email, attachments, sender, recipient information, links, and all metadata is with Check Point. Data storage and everything else is with Check Point, which is the challenge. This solution has a drawback because of API deployment, while other solutions are traditional secure email gateways that are in-line solutions. In those solutions, we need to change the MX record, but with this solution we do not need to change the MX record, which is a pro of API-based deployment. However, there is also a con in that with API solutions, the email is scanned but after delivery in the mailbox.

A simple and easy-to-handle solution that does not need multiple configurations, but its pricing could be improved
Trustifi Inbound Shield is a simple and easy-to-handle solution where we don't have to go for multiple configurations. A single IT admin supporting over 100 or 200 users can easily understand everyday reports. Trustifi Inbound Shield is a user-friendly solution that even simple lay people can understand. The product helps our customers avoid 95% of unwanted phishing emails.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The main benefit is that hackers can't steal information."
"Email security has improved since we deployed this platform."
"It's very easy to use, and the onboarding process is straightforward."
"There has been a 70% decrease in phishing emails and data breaches since implementing Check Point Harmony Email Security."
"It is the collaboration between users inside the company. It is a big advantage with Check Point to be able to work together on the same document."
"To provide the security coverage to the new email service, we chose the Check Point CloudGuard SaaS solution, which now serves as the main protection mechanism for about 500 users and up to 10,000 emails per day, and there are no problems with the scalability for future growth."
"One of the best features is the analysis and emulation carried out with each file attached to the emails, which makes each of the deliveries we make via email more secure."
"The product's initial setup phase is very simple and automated. Everything can be made ready within a few clicks."
"Trustifi Inbound Shield is a simple and easy-to-handle solution where we don't have to go for multiple configurations."
 

Cons

"The documentation is a little unintuitive, and I make an additional effort for the first deployment."
"It would be good to have the option to export the respective record data from dashboards or logs to .csv or other files."
"The integration with Gsuite could be improved, especially when reporting the amount of emails it manages to filter."
"For tech people who want to dive deep into self-servicing capabilities, Check Point could improve in this area."
"Navigating between quarantine, threat logs, and policy settings sometimes feels clunky, requiring too many clicks to get to commonly used features."
"Some files are not scanned thoroughly due to occasional network failures."
"I need to go to Check Point's admin portal if I want to see the license list and the details of the users of the tool, making it an area of concern where some ease of process should be provided from an improvement perspective."
"Improved support is needed as current support is slow."
"The solution's pricing is very high compared to other products like Barracuda and should be improved."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The cost is similar to other competitors. It's not much higher."
"Having information stolen by a hacker would be more expensive than purchasing a license."
"Reasonable cost, quick and easy implementation, and transparent."
"Cost is the main concern that every customer takes into consideration, and Check Point always negotiates a price that is affordable."
"The pricing is expensive."
"Do a full feature evaluation (interactive) with a support person. That is what I did."
"One of the nice features is that the licensing model is elastic, so if you go over your license count, you can add users during your billing cycle and true-up later."
"There are absolutely no additional costs to the standard licensing fees. One of the wonderful pieces is that CloudGuard SaaS is all-inclusive in its licensing. There's no a-la-carte functionality. You're getting 100 percent of the product for the licensing that you're paying."
