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.

User-friendly solution with good blocking
I mainly use Security Premium as an antivirus.  Security Premium's best features are blocking, notifications, and the user interface. Security Premium's cost could be lower. I've been using Security Premium for a year. Security Premium is stable - I haven't faced any issues or bugs while using…

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Compared to its competitors, Check Point Harmony Endpoint has advantages in areas like EDR and behavioral detection."
"The remote support is good."
"The software is quite simple to use, yet still efficient."
"The technical support is good."
"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."
"Endpoint security is a client-server managed network protection program that blocks unauthorized software, malware, and viruses from entering the network and each client machine and can be set up company specific to block specific file extensions or other devices from accessing the network."
"The best thing is that it fits into all environments, which gives any organization a chance to use it intuitively without worrying about the nature of their industry."
"This solution helps make sure that we can patch and keep security going without having to talk to everyone for change management."
"Protects me from internet vulnerability."
"We like how it can check for issues, including files and web browsers, as it is a full-stack solution for antivirus for personal use and it is pretty effective."
"Security Premium's best features are blocking, notifications, and the user interface."
"The antivirus aspect of the solution is very good, and the support we receive from Norton is excellent."
"The licensing fee for this solution is not expensive."
"The ransomware protection that they have now is worth considering."
"I'm convinced that Symantec and Norton are the leaders, they know what they are doing, they cover all functionalities of spam, virus, and malware protection, etc."
"We tried a few: Kaspersky, Trend Micro, we used McAfee, we used Norton; we tried them all on our entire fleet of computers, and we realized that in terms of ease of use and resource consumption, Norton is something that is acceptable to us."
 

Cons

"Sometimes, with a lot of clients (1,000) the UI is a bit sluggish."
"Specifically, there are gaps when it comes to security."
"In terms of improvement, the ticketing system could be better. It is a little tricky to try to open a case and give it to an engineer."
"Check Point Harmony Endpoint's GUI is old. It needs to have a modern dashboard for logging activities. Compared to other products, the solution is slow in terms of deep scanning."
"I choose nine out of ten because apart from the licensing cost, everything is great."
"To improve Check Point Harmony Endpoint, I believe the DLP feature needs enhancement because many SMB customers seek a single solution that includes both EDR and DLP to meet regulations."
"More applications should be supported."
"Customer support varies depending on the person handling the case. Some support staff are effective, while others are not as strong."
"Having a dashboard that shows the different functions of Norton Security Premium can convince end users that the software is more than just an antivirus solution. This product offers several features, but end users think that it's just one out of the box solution, because the different functions are not explained in detail."
"I don't like the password manager of Norton Security Premium. I really dislike it."
"The solution can improve the security modules."
"The only problem with Norton Antivirus is that it consumes a lot of resources like CPU and memory in the background. Whenever it's scanning, my laptop becomes very slow, and the worst part is you cannot do anything about it. As this product is secured by my local IT team, you cannot even kill that process, and that's what I've felt about many other antivirus solutions. I'm using McAfee for personal use, and I have the same problem."
"I do not find it to be scalable."
"Sometimes the program is too complex, and simplifying it might be an improvement."
"The product could always be more secure."
"The product is an antivirus, it should be updated automatically when needed."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The tool’s cost has increased by almost 300% in two years."
"Initial monies replacing all AVs with a single product is about £10k."
"Check Point Harmony Endpoint's pricing is more competitive than any other vendor."
"The price is good."
"The pricing is very expensive. You need to buy the appliance and subscription as well."
"There are three different licensing models including basic, advanced, and complete, and it needs to be selected according to the endpoint."
"I rate Check Point Harmony Endpoint's pricing a seven out of ten because it is a little high."
"Licensing comes free in that first year or is included in the base package. From a commercial point of view, it really just is the renewal cost, rather than a one-time fixed cost or buy-in."
"As I have been a long-time customer, I was given a fair price of $49.95 per month for the first four to six months."
"Security Premium is highly-priced."
"We have a yearly license, and each license is around 20 or 30 Jordanian Dinars plus taxes."
"The solution gives the value for the money."
"The licensing fee for this solution is not expensive."
"If they could come down in price that would be good. It's not exactly the lowest."
"Pricing for this software is competitive."
"I don't pay for a license."
