Nasseer Qureshi - PeerSpot reviewer
Comprehensive defensive features boost daily protection and efficiency
I see a need for improvement especially in policy management and policy customization with Check Point Harmony Endpoint. As a new user, I find it somewhat difficult to customize and apply policies due to the various options available. I would appreciate improvement in fine-tuning those policies and integrating with other tools, such as being able to send logs from Check Point to our SIM or syslog solution. The user interface is good, and I really appreciate it, but improvements are needed in policy customization and integration with third-party products. Additionally, I would prefer to see a mechanism to send agents directly from the console to an endpoint during installation.

A tool that offers good UI and documentation
Webroot Business Endpoint Protection had sent me a physical installation medium, which was very easy to obtain and deploy. It was also easy to configure, and it had a nice UI. I didn't have any problems with the product. I think that Webroot Business Endpoint Protection is very transparent about the pricing models offered to users. The tool also maintains transparency about the features and specifications. Previously, when I compared the two products with Webroot Business Endpoint Protection, I saw that with Trend Micro, it is very difficult to transparently find out what it offers and how much it charges for it.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"This solution helps make sure that we can patch and keep security going without having to talk to everyone for change management."
"It is a great, cost-effective, and stable security solution to opt for."
"It features strong AI-based threat prevention and security management, making it a solid choice for end users."
"Since I started using Check Point Harmony Endpoint, about 95% of our emails are now secured because of this product."
"The most valuable feature is the integration with CheckPoint's firewalls. You can have one port, and follow the logs from both Endpoint and firewall security."
"One of the strengths of Harmony is its power to detect threats and keep us safe."
"With Check Point Antivirus, we can ensure our user's machine is protected and securely connected to the network."
"The insight and visibility of the detection is good."
"It is an easy-to-use and easy-to-configure product."
"Speed"
"It is very light. It is the only solution that can be installed on a machine that already has an antivirus. It is a pretty complete solution."
"I haven't observed any of the instabilities in the solution. It is a stable solution."
"The solution is very simple and straightforward to use."
"It monitors traffic and keeps us from getting ransomware or other viruses."
"The feature we found most valuable is the AI functionality for maintaining endpoint security. This is very powerful."
"Low performance requirements."
 

Cons

"A little change in the product's user interface is required since it is one of the areas where the product has certain shortcomings."
"Check Point Harmony is definitely pricier compared to other endpoints."
"More applications should be supported."
"They need to make the user interface on the server more intuitive and user-friendly."
"There could be more additions to the compatible systems and applications for integration purposes."
"If you're using an endpoint that does not have sufficient resources, it would be very tough to use."
"Customization of UI should be a little better in terms of application UI and messages that are displayed when something is blocked or non-compliant."
"We would like to see the URL filtering functionality improved in this solution, so that we can exclude domains, rather than just single site URL's."
"An updated UI would be nice, but is not hardly used."
"It would be nice if it had a feature for automatically generating reports on the client end for device status, security status and backup information."
"One of the biggest pain points is that it's not really ransomware-oriented. They will be able to catch some, but that's where Sentinel One is a better player compared to Webroot."
"Webroot Business Endpoint Protection needs to focus on how they can widen their area of scope by not just being an antivirus tool anymore. The shortcoming in the customization area of the tool needs improvement."
"Technical support is not the best. It's hard to get a hold of them if we need help. It's something that definitely needs improvement."
"I believe that Webroot Business Endpoint Protection should offer a more modern UI."
"I want Webroot to be easier to use and set up. It is not very intuitive."
"It would be great if there was a feature which would allow you to scan an individual file on an endpoint user's computer."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The pricing is very expensive. You need to buy the appliance and subscription as well."
"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 tool’s cost has increased by almost 300% in two years."
"Check Point Harmony Endpoint's pricing is more competitive than any other vendor."
"We implement this solution with a yearly subscription and there are no extra costs."
"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."
"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."
"Check Point Antivirus is a good solution, but it's a little costly."
"Webroot Business Endpoint Protection is not too expensive. My licenses cost me between $300 and $400. It is really good price wise."
"I rate the product's pricing a three on a scale of one to ten, where one is cheap, and ten is expensive. There are no costs in addition to the product's standard licensing fees."
"We evaluate other options using multiple choices, best value, management and functionality."
"The pricing is high."
"The solution is very cost-effective."
"From a pricing standpoint, I would rate it a four out of five."
"The solution is pretty cheap, actually. At our level, which is at 2,500 endpoints, we're paying 87 cents an agent per month."
"Get a trial, then a multi-year license."
