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.
Jasmit Singh Juneja - PeerSpot reviewer
A stable solution that is used for endpoint security and to protect computers from malware
We are using the latest version of SonicWall Capture Client. Fortinet is ahead of SonicWall. The range of appliances, equipment, availability in my country with the distributors, and the overall ecosystem of Fortinet is way better than SonicWall. My advice to others looking into using SonicWall Capture Client is to keep giving feedback to the companies regarding whatever improvements should be made. Overall, I rate SonicWall Capture Client an eight out of ten.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"It is a stable solution. My company has not received any complaints regarding the product's stability from our customers who use the solution."
"The standout features are primarily EDR and MDR."
"The biggest value we found was ease of deployment. I haven't really used it much, so I can't really comment beyond that. I haven't used it much, but it's working."
"The most important characteristic of our requirements was the implementation of disk encryption."
"Information is easily managed and protected (which is particularly useful in lost or stolen endpoints)."
"It offers complete endpoint protection for all assets."
"The product improved the overall security of our organization with the features like sandboxing and phishing prevention."
"It's easy to scale as needed."
"SonicWall Capture Client offers a cost-effective solution that's cheaper compared to other vendors like CrowdStrike."
"The threat protection feature of SonicWall Capture Client is most valuable."
"Overall, what I love the most about SonicWall Capture Client is its management console. SonicWall Capture Client also has the intelligence to tell you which computer is online, what OS it uses, etc. I also found the rollback feature and SentinelOne integration valuable in SonicWall Capture Client. Rollback is a powerful feature of the solution because it's similar to locking your endpoint during an attack, so you won't have to pay the hackers, particularly during ransomware attacks. That feature in SonicWall Capture Client allows you to get back your endpoint or make your endpoint right again after an attack. I also like that it isn't complex to remove the engine error from the endpoint because you only have to provide the security key from SonicWall Capture Client, so the process is simple. It's not complex."
"The product’s interface is easy to use."
"The solution serves as a very stable platform."
"The most valuable features of SonicWall Capture Client are CSC (Capture Security Center), RTDMI (Real-Time Deep Memory Inspection), and the deep memory inspection feature."
"Considering other products, SonicWall Capture Client has two differentiators."
"SonicWall Capture Client's scalability is nice."
 

Cons

"We have observed some policies are not working as expected."
"They need to focus on more scalability (as much as possible) so that the solution can run across all supported OS."
"The remote deployment with Check Point Endpoint Security requires improvement. We have to depend on some of their deployment tools. I would like a system endpoint protection management tool or a remote deployment tool."
"Check Point Harmony Endpoint's agent is a bit heavy."
"More granular reporting and dashboards for EDR solutions could be beneficial, as could enhanced third-party integrations for additional threat intelligence that can be integrated into the system."
"Compared to other brands, we would like a dedicated anti-spam to be included in order to close the full circle."
"The software requires considerable resources and can strain less powerful computers."
"The solution has limitations if it's hosted on-prem or as a SaaS."
"The biggest issue with SonicWall Capture Client is network latency."
"They should improve their user interface."
"SonicWall Capture Client should use less of our PC's memory, as it tends to slow down the performance."
"Technical support from SonicWall has room for improvement. While their escalation process is understandable, it can be time-consuming as all logs need to be provided multiple times across different service levels."
"SonicWall Capture Client could be made a little lighter than it currently is in terms of memory consumption."
"The vulnerability reports need to be better. Windows Defender detected some issues that SonicWall Capture Client couldn't."
"An area for improvement in SonicWall Capture Client is TenantCloud support. Suppose you want to implement SonicWall Capture Client. You'll have to register it on MySonicWall. Then once your SonicWall Capture Client license expires and you don't want to renew it, you can't delete it from your MySonicWall account, so that's an area for improvement."
"The implementation is not easy."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"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 solution is too pricey."
"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."
"Check Point Harmony Endpoint is cost effective."
"The pricing is reasonable."
"Check Point Harmony Endpoint's pricing is more competitive than any other vendor."
"I rate the product price a four on a scale of one to ten, where one is low, and ten is high."
"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."
"You have to pay for the solution, and a lot of customers do not want to pay."
"The product is very expensive."
"Here in Indonesia, SonicWall Capture Client costs five hundred thousand rupiahs for every endpoint. If I'm correct, you only have to pay the licensing fee, and there's no additional fee. To me, the pricing for SonicWall Capture Client is four out of five."
