ZoneAlarm Reviews Summary
Author infoRatingReview Summary
Director at Rhinexa India Pvt Ltd.4.5I use F5 BIG-IP for enterprise security and previously used ZoneAlarm for personal protection; it’s easy to install and effective. Harmony Browser adds browsing protection, though Check Point's support and integration speed could be improved.
Senior Manager ICT & Innovations at Bangalore International Airport Limited4.5We use ZoneAlarm primarily for mobile device security across our enterprise, as it effectively protects against viruses, spyware, and hackers. Although it slows down mobile applications, it provides a good return on investment by saving 60% of our time.

Perimeter Security Administrator at a security firm with 51-200 employees3.5We sought a solution to protect against various cyber threats while ensuring compliance and network visibility. ZoneAlarm offers centralized administration and ease of use, but its high cost and false positives require improvement for better efficiency and performance.
Cloud Engineer at ITQS4.0Our organization needed a high level of protection, and ZoneAlarm was easy to install and configure. It connects to cloud services for event analysis. However, improvement is needed for Mac support and broader coverage across various operating systems.
Consultant at ITQSWe initially used ZoneAlarm for device security but encountered functionality issues, leading us to switch to Extreme Security for better compatibility across operating systems. ZoneAlarm provides frequent updates, yet the documentation and update process need improvement. Overall, it has been a worthwhile investment.
