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.

An easily integratable solution that helps scan files
I recommend leveraging the data and using case transcripts to understand how the tool can address your needs. Additionally, testing the solution in your environment can be helpful. If we keep it updated and ensure that the engines and the latest definitions are up-to-date, the solution functions without problems. It continues scanning without any delays. I rate the product an 8 out of 10. With OPSWAT Filescan Sandbox, we can scan various file types, including IOCs, Python compressors, and QR codes from images. All the configuration settings are user-dependent and can be modified over time. It's highly configurable—you can easily navigate to the console, click on any option, and quickly adjust settings, including the default size.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"It is one of the best antivirus applications on the market currently."
"Harmony is better than Crowd Strike or any other similar solution in that class."
"It has a great ability to detect threats and keep us safe."
"Its most outstanding feature is the power to manage everything from a dashboard, a window that is in the cloud, which allows us to manage it from anywhere in the world through any browser, from anywhere."
"Since we started using it, we've seen fewer security incidents, faster response times, and better protection against ransomware."
"In many ways, it made us feel safe."
"It is a very reliable antivirus."
"The product improved the overall security of our organization with the features like sandboxing and phishing prevention."
"What I find most valuable about it is the design interface."
 

Cons

"Overall I didn't personally face any issues while implementing Check Point Antivirus."
"We would like to have the ability to stop and restart the service remotely, which is something that we can do easily with Symantec but have a hard time with when using Check Point."
"Filtering the websites that can be visited is important also as there's always a chance to come by sites that, just by clicking, will download malicious threats."
"They should provide bandwidth regulation, so we can monitor and regulate bandwidth."
"Improvements are required in two key areas: notifications and setup simplification."
"They need to add more and more features in the trial version and significantly reduce the pricing for the standard annual subscriptions for the benefit of all."
"Compared to other brands, we would like a dedicated anti-spam to be included in order to close the full circle."
"Technical support could be better."
"There's a size limitation, allowing us to scan only small files."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Choosing the correct set of licenses is essential because, without the additional software blade licenses, the Check Point gateways are just a stateful firewall."
"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."
"The product is averagely priced. The product price is neither very high nor too low. The tool is not really expensive."
"The price is good."
"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."
"In terms of licensing, have a buffer zone around your projects in terms of the amount of endpoints that you want to have. You can always have more, but it is best to leave room for a little increase or growth."
"The pricing is reasonable."
"We are paying 2,50,000 Sri Lankan Rupees annually which is the fixed charge."
"The tool is free, but there's a size limitation, allowing us to scan only small files."
