Find out what your peers are saying about Check Point Software Technologies, Lookout, Zimperium and others in Mobile Threat Defense."I would rate the stability a ten out of ten."
"It doesn't allow you to activate some of the applications until your mobile is malware free. That way we come to know that the device secure and only then do we deploy the business application."
"It is a scalable solution. Up to three hundred users are using the solution. I rate the scalability a ten out of ten."
"We like the URL content filtering, that is one of the most valuable features."
"It has been very easy to implement and deploy."
"You can block infected devices from accessing corporate data."
"Network protection, OS protection, application protection, and file protection are valuable. It is also easy to implement and manage."
"Internal applications, data, and folders are published on enrolled mobile devices in a secure way without publishing any of the resources over the internet."
"It can scale well."
"OpenVPN Access Server is very stable."
"Provided the easiest UX for our end-users and had the greatest interoperability with all the operating systems we used, including but not limited to: iOS, Android, OS X, Windows, and Linux."
"It can securely do remote product updates... just as if it was on our LAN."
"The most valuable feature is stability."
"The most valuable thing about OpenVPN Access Server is its ease of use."
"The product’s adaptability is valuable."
"The solution is user-friendly and easy to implement."
"Check Point Harmony Mobile lacks MDM capabilities, which are present in other MDM products, like IBM Security MaaS360, AirWatch, and Google Workspace."
"I would like to see management and remote administration functions in the same portal."
"While it's great, there's always room for improvement. Adding capabilities for automatic deployment in an enterprise environment would be useful."
"We know that for many companies, the management and administration of device and data security have been complex."
"We don't have Google MDM being supported by the solution as of yet. It is a feature requirement... They are aware that it is something that I need. My objective is to be able to have the MDM integration and to have some level of control over the asset itself."
"The deployment in the Android system is very simple but in the case of iOS, it is more complicated so the users require attention from our CAU."
"One of the improvements that can be made is that they become compatible with Google MDM."
"It would be super helpful if there were more details around the risks that were found on our mobile devices."
"They may have this already, but it would be nice to be able to get more notifications if a site drops unexpectedly."
"There are certain shortcomings in the product's stability that need improvement."
"If we had to create something for someone who was not necessarily tech savvy, I had to set that up on their computer, I had to write "read me's" and other things so that they could install their client and then connect to the VPN by themselves. So it was hard to set up for people who are not tech savvy."
"I would like to see a GUI or Web UI to manage users. Today these features are in the Pro Edition or are done by scripts."
"The upgrade path from older versions was more difficult than we wanted to tackle, so we ran an older version of the software for longer than I wanted. Patching, updating, and migrating to newer versions was a problem for us. That said, we were on a rather old version that I inherited yet it worked rock solid."
"The solution should provide a faster connection, and its security could be improved."
"The stability of the solution could improve."
"I think right now the GUI part of it is locked out behind the pay wall. It could use something that gives it a very basic, minimal, graphic interface for logging in, for the community version. That would probably be a good step forward."
