Is Check Point's software compatible with other products?

Hi peers,

I am a Product Manager at a small computer networking company.

At the moment, I am researching Check Point's products.

Is Check Point's software compatible with other products (including firewall products, servers, and more)? If so, which products? Are there products that are not compatible with Check Point's software?

In addition, can you provide any specific documentation that shows exactly what products are compatible with Check Point?

Thank you for the help.

Checkpoint is an INCREDIBLY secure, but inherently frustrating platform to manage. The gui/cli must often be used together to effect the changes you're looking for. Don't get me started on the gaia hardware management interface.

If you must buy it, ensure that you get support. Personally, I'll take Fortinet, Palo Alto or even Juniper SRX over anything checkpoint.
