Streamlined deployment with autonomous configuration and centralized management

Efficient traffic management and employee focus with advanced security features

Pros

"Check Point NGFW has positively impacted my organization as the incidents have reduced, resulting in no disruptions in the network."

Cons

"Check Point should provide the feature of exporting group data with address groups, so when I export address books, only the group name is visible in the Excel file. Instead, it should show the actual members of the groups getting exported."
