Vice President at Korchek Technologies
Has provided secure remote access for years but inconsistent support delays resolution
Regarding logging and management, while some of the logging is really good, other times it's not so great, and we've had to reach out to Check Point a few times for assistance, and the support we've gained hasn't been up to par with what Check Point usually offers as part of their support. When it comes to improvements, not specifically the remote access VPN, but the support associated with Check Point products has fallen over the last two years, and the response time is much worse, with the first layer of support lacking sufficient knowledge on how to troubleshoot issues.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The majority of people say how excellent the remote access VPN service is and they stated that once connected to a VPN service, they never experience connectivity problems."
"The product's initial setup phase was easy."
"Check Point Remote Access VPN has positively impacted our organization by enabling employees to securely access internal systems from anywhere, which has reduced downtime and made it easier to stay connected while traveling or working from home."
"The capacity that Check Point Remote Access VPN offers is one of the best, and it has made it easier for us and the team to have great mobility inside and outside the organization."
"The security of the solution is a good feature, the stability is a valuable feature, and the customization is also a nice feature."
"Check Point Remote Access VPN has improved our organization because it has allowed remote access to various users, including external consultants who use their devices to access our resources and internal users who use corporate devices for remote access, and with the latest version, we have introduced dual-factor authentication and in this way, we have greatly increased security on the identity of the people who connect."
"The clients of the customers have a facility to access the enterprise network."
"The initial setup of Check Point Remote Access VPN is simple."
"The solution is easy to use and has a straightforward user interface."
 

Cons

"Price category and smooth renewal of agreement should be considered for flawless and quick onboarding of clients and partners."
"Check Point Remote Access VPN can be improved in throughput, as when multiple users are connected through the Remote Access VPN, there can be an issue where only a single user can access our single servers, which needs to be resolved."
"Price category and smooth renewal of agreement should be considered for flawless and quick onboarding of clients and partners."
"For Linux machines, they don't have a full client to install. For the users that utilize Linux, there needs to be an equivalent."
"We encounter challenges for the product’s installation and troubleshooting processes compared to other VPN products."
"The remote workers were experiencing issues like disconections, no IP avaliables from the DHCP, or unable to connect because the server didnt responde to a ping, however this issue was fix after we instlalled the JHF 125 on each gateway and after the upgrade, everythig has been working OK, but before that Check Point didn´t have a fix for that manner."
"The maximum it is giving us is only 5 licenses and if you need more, they must be purchased separately."
"The configuration of Check Point Remote Access VPN could be simplified so that there will be no complex steps to configure it and maintain it."
"The design of the user interface could be improved."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Organizations that already have the Check Point NGFW need to purchase an additional license to have access to the VPN functionality."
"Check Point Remote Access VPN is not expensive and the cost is annual."
"The price of this product is good."
"Regarding pricing, as a global customer, we get a big discount. For us, it's a good return on investment. We need to pay for additional features we want to enable. It seems cheaper than other vendors, but I can't say what it would cost an average customer."
"I give the price of the solution a five out of ten."
"The product is expensive. I rate its pricing a ten out of ten. For the cost of one product, we could purchase two or three Fortinet solutions with the same amount of money."
"My company makes yearly payments only towards the licensing costs attached to Check Point Remote Access VPN, as there are no extra costs attached to the product."
"There is a license required for this solution."
"On a scale from one to ten, where one is expensive and ten is cheap, I rate the solution's pricing an eight out of ten."
