Easy to use with a good dashboard and excellent threat protection
If you want a customized feature, it is generally rejected or takes too much time to integrate. If you face a problem on your console, only R&D from the support team can check the backend of the product. Sometimes this causes delays in solution time. The errors should be more visible to admin users. If you are responsible for regulations such as keeping your corporate important data in your country, this scenario is also possible with this product but sometimes it creates problems with viewing encrypted data.

A market leader that integrates nicely with other McAfee security products and is quite stable
We are just customers and end-users. We are using the most up-to-date version available at this time. I'd advise potential new users that the key thing is to clearly understand what your requirements are and what your use cases are, and both your business requirements, your technical requirements, and your regulatory requirements. It's important to understand all of those. A company needs to clearly understand all the use cases it needs to manage and make sure they do the appropriate due diligence to find a product that can achieve all those requirements and handle all those use cases. It was an extensive process for us. We did about four to six months of paper-based due diligence - not even a field trial - to make that we were picking the right product. We leveraged a lot of outside vendor-neutral sources like Gartner. So far, I'd rate the solution at a nine 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

"The use and management of our portal is easy."
"Overall, we are very satisfied with Check Point Harmony Mobile."
"The easy deployment is the key for us. I can simply send a link through email to a user, then they install the software and are protected."
"The ease of use, along with comprehensive protection for all devices, is a key advantage. It provides visibility into malicious applications installed on the phone."
"One of the features that have given us additional value is being able to encrypt and block how data is shared within cell phones or mobile devices."
"It has been a reliable solution for our organization, significantly improving our mobile device security without excessive maintenance requirements."
"The solution has clients for both Android and Apple devices, so all of our employees' devices are protected."
"It is a stable solution."
"The product is one of the market leaders, according to Gartner, on mobile protection."
 

Cons

"I would like to see more visibility into the actual devices that it's protecting. In some cases, you don't want to see a lot. However, for our purposes, I would like to see more information about the applications which are installed, then have more control over what can and what cannot be installed."
"The project point needs improvement."
"The solution's false positive detection could be improved to reduce unnecessary alerts, the app's performance optimized to minimize device impact, and policy management simplified for easier deployment."
"I would quite like to be able to block ads on my phone by blocking known inbound ad websites and services."
"Integration needs improvement. We use Check Point for email. We use Check Point Capsule Workspace and I wish that it tied into that better and was integrated with their email application so that when it's secure, then they're able to access their email and it could be deployed as one group instead of two separate applications. It's a little bit more work for us to deploy both of those so it'd be nice if they could be integrated."
"We had some issues with loopback VPN DNS filtering stopping working periodically, however, this is something that we could probably iron out with support."
"From a user's perspective, of course, it is always better when it is cheaper in price."
"I would like to see management and remote administration functions in the same portal."
"The one thing that I know that they're working on, that's not quite there in the product, is the artificial intelligence aspect."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"There is a need to make yearly payments towards the licensing costs attached to the product. You can opt for a one-year, three-year, or five-year license."
"When I purchased the product for one of our company's clients, I realized that the price of the product was competitive."
"The cost is huge compared to other products, and it seems this solution is only for companies with a large budget."
"Users have to pay a yearly licensing fee for each device, which is cheap."
"The price is not so high. I would rate the pricing a three or four out of ten."
"Its cost depends upon the number of users."
"I rate the tool's pricing a three out of ten."
"Regarding the cost of licenses, each device consumes one, even if it has both professional and personal profiles."
