Remote Access Security Reinforced with Real-Time Device Protection
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.

Provides protection against malware but needs improved billing transparency
I can only speak to it on a personal level. If someone is considering it, they should test it on their own systems. I can't personally recommend it because each person has their own needs. While it may work for me as a malware antivirus solution, I can't recommend it to someone else who may have a different system or use case. I rate the overall solution 7.5 out of 10. Malwarebytes protects me against malware. If they fix the pricing model so it's not automatically charging me, the rating could improve. Until then, I can't give it an 8.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Check Point offers a comprehensive solution that will not only create a firewall but will also protect the traffic of data from an application usage standpoint."
"Forensic Analysis provides a complete analysis of threats via detailed reports."
"It's easy to scale as needed."
"We had a ransomware attack and the SandBlast agent automatically picked up the ransomware."
"The level of security and visibility they provide is great and it is very easy to configure and maintain."
"Since deploying Check Point Harmony Endpoint, I have seen a clear reduction in security incidents, such as phishing and malware infections."
"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."
"The communication with the console is very dynamic and remote, without the need to return to the computer locally."
"The behavior-based detection is very nice, and it combats zero-day threats by looking for anomalous behaviors."
"Ten times a day, improved signatures will be downloaded, so it is very up-to-date in terms of malware experience."
"We don't have to spend any time remediating bad things happening: Not viruses nor ransomware."
"I was very satisfied with Malwarebytes in terms of its antivirus abilities."
"The protection is really good with Malwarebytes. It's also user friendly and quite easy to set up."
"It gets the job done, and they are consistently updating it monthly."
"The most valuable feature of the solution is that I can use it wherever I want, be it at the office, at home, or even outside."
"Being able to cloud manage it from just a cloud login is valuable. We can get to it from anywhere, which is really helpful. The fact that we can remediate from the cloud console is one of our favorite features."
 

Cons

"Dashboard customization is needed for improvements. While the centralized management is strong, the dashboard could offer more flexibility."
"It needs to include built-in deployment. This will make the job easier rather than having to go and dig up an Active Directory deployment along with policy objects."
"There are a number of features behind paywalls which can be frustrating when you are already paying a premium."
"The solution could improve VPN functionality and the VPN user-interface."
"More posting of user feedback is requested across all websites and Google so that more traction can be attained. Seeing reviews helps create more confidence with clients and partners."
"The biggest thing would be the ability to update the SMO's and gateways through Gaia instead of always completing it through the command line."
"It would be ideal if they had a migration tool of some sort."
"While the platform is powerful, the user interface of Check Point Harmony Endpoint could be more intuitive for non-technical users."
"The stability and performance of the solution are areas with shortcomings that need improvement."
"I would like to see a little more detail in the log. So, when an event occurs, I'd like to know not just when it happened and on what device, but what activity was taking place on the machine at the time so that we can drill down. If we get a false positive, we have to do a lot of research and go back and forth with our end-users to know why it was a false positive. So, having a little more detail around detections and events would probably be my most asked feature."
"Every once in a while, it gets clobbered by updates from other places. I don't think this should happen."
"There are no built-in backups or integrated backup options, which could be an opportunity."
"The interface could be improved. Currently, you need to really dig around to find the elements you need."
"The product is a little bit more expensive than the other brands."
"Malwarebytes is not there in the reports from Gartner or IDC...If we look at the market trends and the industry, most customers look at Gartner's reports to identify whether a product is a leader, challenger, or a big product, depending on which they choose."
"It would be better if updates could be downloaded, and deployed, on-premises to avoid low bandwidth causing issues."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The product is averagely priced. The product price is neither very high nor too low. The tool is not really expensive."
"The cost is huge compared to other products that are available on market."
"In addition to the standard licensing fees, there is a cost for support."
"The pricing is very expensive. You need to buy the appliance and subscription as well."
"Initial monies replacing all AVs with a single product is about £10k."
"One of the key factors that made us go with this solution was the pricing. On the licensing part, there was an initial complementary set of licenses offered in the initial onboarding package, either 15 or 20. Then, we had some complementary licenses in the initial purchase of the package. That was pretty useful."
"I bought them for 12 months and I genuinely cannot remember what I paid for them. I think it's about 100 pounds per user per year, so about 10 pounds a month per person."
"The licensing cost for Check Point is $3 USD or $4 USD per end-user."
"Malwarebytes is a cost-effective product."
"Its licensing is annual. There are no additional costs beyond the standard licensing fee."
"We expect to pay $1,000 USD a month, depending on the number of users."
"I would say that it's affordable. It costs much less than Sentinel One, CrowdStrike, or anything of that nature. But, at the same time, you are getting what you pay for. So I would say it's one of the best when you're comparing traditional NextGen AVs like Webroot that aren't the best in the bunch."
"The price of Malwarebytes is in the middle range compared to other vendors."
"On a scale of one to ten, where one is a low price and ten is a high price, I rate the product's pricing a seven."
"The cost may be something in the ballpark of $20-25 a year per computer."
"The licensing is per seat, with clients being a little less expensive than servers. If we need more licenses, we can accomplish that within a day. As Malwarebytes adds new features to their product, such as DNS filtering and a patching module, they want to charge us more even though we're a premium user, which isn't ideal."
