Offers cost-effectiveness and is user-friendly
Pros and Cons
  • "You don't have to wander around the tool since it is very simple. You can grab and get a hold of the tool very quickly."
  • "The tool's response time can be improved since sometimes it lags, but not always...The tool's UI should be made more dynamic."

What is our primary use case?

I use the solution in my company since we use it to manage traffic. The tool helps my company to maintain decorum and compliance policies by blocking the sites. With the tool in our company, we can keep track of the usage across the company, and it helps allow and disallow third-party migrations and connections.

What is most valuable?

The most valuable features of the solution revolve around areas like UI, feasibility, and the fact that the access is good. You don't have to wander around the tool since it is very simple. You can grab and get a hold of the tool very quickly.

What needs improvement?

I haven't come across any other tool that can compete with Check Point Web Gateway. Until now, I don't think the tool has an area where it should improve. The tool's response time can be improved since sometimes it lags, but not always, so it can be described as a rare case.

Though the tool's UI is good for me, there is little scope for improvement. The tool's UI should be made more dynamic.

For how long have I used the solution?

I have been using Check Point Web Gateway for a year. I don't remember the version of the solution because my company's admin manages it.

What do I think about the stability of the solution?

The tool's stability is good. The tool really does what it commits to, and it really helps improve the SLAs and the performance. Stability-wise, I rate the solution a nine out of ten.

What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

Scalability-wise, I rate the solution a nine out of ten.

Around five admins in my company use the product.

How are customer service and support?

Though I haven't used the support services provided by the product, I feel that it is good.

How was the initial setup?

The product's initial setup phase is straightforward since you just have to give the nodes and ranges of your network.

For the product's deployment phase, you should be aware of your networks, nodes, subnets, and IP ranges, and there should be a pilot test first so that you don't block any network or you don't block any allowed networks.

The solution is deployed on the cloud model.

The solution can be deployed in two months.

For the deployment and maintenance of the product, my company has a team of five to six system engineers.

What about the implementation team?

The installation was managed by an in-house team consisting of network and security engineers.

What was our ROI?

The ROI offered by the product is good. My company has been continuing with the tool for the last two years, and it has clearly benefited us, both cost-wise and performance-wise. I rate the ROI a nine out of ten.

What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?

There is a need to make yearly payments towards the licensing charges attached to the product. The product is neither too expensive nor too cheap, so it comes at a good price point for my company.

Which other solutions did I evaluate?

My company did not evaluate other tools against Check Point Web Gateway since it was cost-effective and user-friendly.

What other advice do I have?

In terms of the effectiveness of the threat prevention technology in Check Point Web Gateway, the tool helps secure our company's environment, as threat detection and blocking work well.

Others can definitely go ahead with the tool, especially if they want to secure their networks and manage firewalls or network traffic.

In terms of the benefits offered by the product, I can say that it helps in securing network parameters, environments from network attacks, lateral movements within an environment, blocking of traffic, and managing the traffic. The tool improves our company's cybersecurity posture.

I rate the tool a nine out of ten.

Provides general protection with a centralized mechanism and zero-day vulnerability
Pros and Cons
  • "Trend Micro has a centralized mechanism where we can control and monitor all system protections. It includes detecting any wireless problems, which will be displayed on our portal. We plan to investigate the issues with those systems internally."

    What is our primary use case?

    We use the solution for general protection.

    What is most valuable?

    Trend Micro has a centralized mechanism where we can control and monitor all system protections. It includes detecting any wireless problems, which are displayed on our portal. We plan to investigate the issues with those systems internally.

    What needs improvement?

    Pricing could be improved.

    For how long have I used the solution?

    I have been using Trend Micro Web Security for three years. We are using the latest version of the solution.

    What do I think about the stability of the solution?

    I rate the solution’s stability an eight or nine out of ten.

    What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

    The solution’s scalability is good.

    260 users are using this solution.

    I rate the solution’s scalability a nine out of ten.

    How are customer service and support?

    Technical support is helpful.

    Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?

    We worked with Symantec. Another company has taken over Symantec. It was expensive too. So, we opted for Trend Micro.

    How was the initial setup?

    The initial setup depends on the users. We have these solutions installed on the systems. We are providing some links to the users. They can install them alone, but it takes time because our systems work in remote scenarios where web connectivity might be an issue.

    What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?

    The product is expensive.

    I rate the product’s pricing a six out of ten, where one is expensive, and ten is cheap.

    What other advice do I have?

    Trend Micro Web Security provides excellent protection. Therefore, many other systems are implementing the same server with Trend Micro. All security aspects are the same, but we are considering the economic aspects when choosing Trend Micro over other options.

    Overall, the protection is good, giving us peace of mind. It's intuitive, with no issues with spam. This improves our quality of time.

    Zero-day vulnerability is effective because the time consumption for resolving these issues has decreased. We no longer have to worry about it.

    Trend Micro Web Security is an all-in-one solution tailored for non-profit organizations. We do not integrate it with any of our existing servers or systems. It functions as an independent mechanism for individual users. Users can protect their laptops even without an internet connection. There are no issues.

    Overall, I rate the solution an eight or nine out of ten.
