Check Point Harmony Endpoint Reviews

Check Point Harmony Endpoint is used to manage endpoint user devices, which includes laptops, desktops, and mobile devices, to control their access and secure the end-user devices.

Check Point Harmony Endpoint provides a central management console from where security policies are applied and enforced to end-user devices as the Harmony Endpoint agent is installed on the user device. Whenever any policy like USB block or any particular category are blocked, users cannot access those resources through the internet, and all security features are enforced from Check Point Harmony Endpoint.

Multiple users are not allowed to reach particular websites or applications with Check Point Harmony Endpoint, so policies are enforced so that they cannot run particular category applications or particular URL categories, or anything from the internet. All of this is controlled from Check Point Harmony Endpoint, and proper visibility is obtained of which user accessed what and at what time, with all logging received from centralized management.

Check Point Harmony Endpoint's antivirus, anti-malware capabilities, and device control and visibility collectively provide great control and great security to the organization's compliance.

My main use case for Check Point Harmony Endpoint is managing the endpoint devices whether it is like a desktop or. A quick specific example of using Check Point Harmony Endpoint is that any user can connect a USB to their endpoint devices and can access any files or share any files through other users, and now we have defined the policy so they are protected from any malicious threats, and we are getting centralized visibility.

The best features Check Point Harmony Endpoint offers include outstanding visibility and user's control over the endpoint devices. The visibility and control features of Check Point Harmony Endpoint help my organization by allowing us to push a centralized policy through a central management console, and we are getting full visibility from the individual device's health and security relations, so all this information we are getting in a centralized console.

Check Point Harmony Endpoint can be improved because sometimes the agent feels heavy, causing slowness in our PC, so that can be improved.

I have been using Check Point Harmony Endpoint for more than three years.

Check Point Harmony Endpoint is stable.

The scalability of Check Point Harmony Endpoint is excellent.

I mainly use Check Point Harmony Endpoint to protect our user devices, laptops, and desktops from malware, phishing, and ransomware. It serves as our front line defense for remote workers and every employee. For example, when the sales department needs to connect at different sites, I need to protect these devices, especially when they access sensitive data outside the corporate network.

Since deploying Check Point Harmony Endpoint, I have seen a clear reduction in security incidents, such as phishing and malware infections. The real-time prevention and behavioral analysis have helped us catch threats early, often before users even notice anything suspicious.

I have noticed both a reduction in the number of incidents and a decrease in response times since using Check Point Harmony Endpoint.

One thing I have found especially useful about Check Point Harmony Endpoint is its remote remediation capability. If a device is compromised or flagged for suspicious behavior, we can isolate it from the network instantly, even if the user is working from home. That kind of control used to be impossible without physical access.

The best feature Check Point Harmony Endpoint offers is the real-time threat prevention. What I appreciate most about the real-time threat prevention in Check Point Harmony Endpoint is the speed.

One feature that stands out in Check Point Harmony Endpoint is the anti-ransomware capability. Check Point Harmony Endpoint does not just block ransomware; it also creates automatic file backups before encryption attempts. Recovery is much easier and less painful if something slips through.

One area that could be improved about Check Point Harmony Endpoint is the user interface for policy management. It is functional, but not very intuitive, especially when trying to set granular rules or exceptions. A more streamlined user interface would help reduce setup time and errors.

I have been using Check Point Harmony Endpoint for four or five years.

Check Point Harmony Endpoint is very stable in my experience.

Our main use case for Check Point Harmony Endpoint is to protect the employees' devices, especially laptops or mobile endpoints, from malware, phishing, or ransomware, and we use it to block malicious downloads or suspicious websites, monitoring endpoint activity for signals of compromise or unusual behavior, and enforce the prevention policies.

In the past, I used Check Point Harmony Endpoint when one employee opened a malicious URL and experienced a problem with their computer, which required escalating the case with support.

I use Check Point Harmony Endpoint for monitoring suspicious activities in different devices.

The best features Check Point Harmony Endpoint offers include advanced threat prevention, as it combines endpoint protection platform, endpoint detection and response (EDR), and extended detection and response (XDR) in a single agent.

The endpoint detection and response (EDR) and extended detection and response (XDR) capability in Check Point Harmony Endpoint have made a meaningful difference for our team, as with EDR, we get detailed visibility into endpoint activity, such as process behavior, file access, and network connections, which has helped us quickly identify suspicious patterns, such as lateral movements or privilege escalation, and respond before damage occurs.

An incredibly helpful feature we use day-to-day is the automated remediation and rollback capability in Check Point Harmony Endpoint, as if a file is flagged as malicious or if ransomware activity is detected, the system can automatically isolate an endpoint and rollback changes to restore it to a safe state, and that's saved us from having to manually clean up or re-image devices after an incident.

With integrated EDR and XDR capabilities, Check Point Harmony Endpoint allows our security team to investigate and respond to threats much faster, as we've gone from hours of manual log review to minutes with automated alerts and contextual insights.

One way Check Point Harmony Endpoint can be improved is through extended audit log retention, as one commonly cited limitation is the short retention period for audit logs, currently capped at around 14 days in some configurations, and extending that window would help security teams conduct deeper forensic investigations and meet compliance requirements more easily.

Check Point Harmony Endpoint's documentation is not intuitive.

Check Point Harmony Endpoint is a great agent for security in different devices, and that's the advice I would give to others looking into using it.

Check Point Harmony Endpoint has saved us over 70% time.

I rate Check Point Harmony Endpoint 8 out of 10.
