Check Point Harmony Mobile Reviews

The ease of use, along with comprehensive protection for all devices, is a key advantage. It provides visibility into malicious applications installed on the phone.

The product needs to improve its user awareness. 

I have been working with the product for 18 months. 

I rate Check Point Harmony Mobile a nine out of ten. 

I rate Check Point Harmony Mobile's deployment an eight out of ten. 

I rate the tool's pricing a three out of ten. 

I rate the overall solution an eight out of ten. 

With this, the company has been able to give many users access to the infrastructure of the company from their mobile phones. Several types of applications are used that must connect to the company network which accesses sensitive information. This has helped a lot to improve efficiency in day-to-day operations and be able to reach more customers. In addition, it has provided us with better administration of all devices and has them organized by security policies depending on the area where each employee works.

This tool has helped us at various points in our organization. For example, we can have better control over each device that accesses the infrastructure network. We can also reach and process orders, and solutions faster, or be able to consult data in real-time from mobile phones. We can work from anywhere in the country. 

With Harmony Mobile, we have been able to provide additional security to our network. 

In addition, it provides a detailed summary of each of the operations from where they access what they access and this has helped us a lot in the audit that they do so we can provide accurate and concise information.

The tool is excellent, however, it has some features that stand out a lot, for example, it has a very intuitive interface. 

The search capacity allows you to find information quickly and concisely. 

It generates reports and precise analysis, quickly in real-time allowing the technology department to focus. 

We can automate many of the tasks. 

It has notifications and reminders that help us be aware of each event or vulnerability that may arise in our organization.

The tool is very effective and proactive, I don't have much to say about the improvements it should have. It already has a very intuitive interface. Yet they should improve the order of each of the options a little since it is difficult to get used to the location of each one. They should rearrange each of the options since time is wasted finding each one.

They could make a more beautiful interface.

When an update is going to be done, it should be less heavy and should streamline operations.

In the last six years, I have been able to use, buy, and implement this tool for the mobile security of companies that are supporting BYD with their officials.

It has very good stability - if it weren't for the updates that sometimes loop.

Scalability is one of the high points that the tool has.

Support is sometimes very slow.

Positive

The company did not have any tools previously.

The first implementation was difficult since the tool has a fairly high learning curve.

The seller helped us do the implementation and part of the configuration. They gave us the training to be able to make the tool Russian.

The ROI is slow to appear, however, they will provide security to all the company's information.

The tools are a little expensive, however, it is worth making that investment for the installation and it has a medium learning curve.

Some tools were evaluated including:

• Akamai
• Mobile Threat Defense
• Palo Alto

It is a very useful tool for mobile security, thus providing security to the entire company.

After the pandemic, most organizations started working remotely and accessed corporate data from their mobile devices. This increased the risk of breaches from mobile attack surfaces. This product covers all mobile security subjects such as application security, network security, file security, and OS/Device protection. 

You can cover all attack vectors with Harmony Mobile. It is a good add on top of MDM solutions. Harmony Movie can detect jailbreaking and rooting techniques. Also, it can protect you from the latest phishing and zero-day phishing attacks.

If organizations distribute mobile devices to their employees and care about user privacy and experience, they should definitely consider how they can secure the devices. Harmony Mobile is the answer to all the things I have mentioned so far. 

It helps employees become aware of mobile security risks with detailed real-time notifications. It has given detailed visibility for threats and created awareness for improvements. The dashboard is very easy to use and deployment is quite easy for mobile devices.

First of all cloud-based management is easy to use and you never deal with software upgrades. If you want to use another product from Check Point you can still use the same management console. 

This product is difficult to explain if people are not mature enough for mobile security. Sometimes people think if they use MDM solutions they also cover mobile security, however, the fact is not like that. 

Mobile security needs effort from the admins because it is a continuous process. You can block infected devices from accessing corporate data.

If you want a customized feature, it is generally rejected or takes too much time to integrate. 

If you face a problem on your console, only R&D from the support team can check the backend of the product. Sometimes this causes delays in solution time. 

The errors should be more visible to admin users. 

If you are responsible for regulations such as keeping your corporate important data in your country, this scenario is also possible with this product but sometimes it creates problems with viewing encrypted data.

I have been giving technical support to this product for more than five years. 

It should have 100% uptime for the product and is very minimal for false positives. So far it has been a smooth experience.

Scalability is very easy. You can start small and increase after a while. 

Customer service is generally good, however, sometimes if the problem is related to the backend, it can take some time to fix it.

Neutral

Check Point Harmony is the first solution we used.

If you are using all products as cloud, implementations are very easy. However, if you want to use on-premise for regulation purposes, the implementation becomes a little complex. You need to install a connector on your environment to encrypt the data in the cloud.

We generally provide installation support for customers. There is no need for a vendor team. 

It is always worth it if you do not want to face a breach and lose prestige.

You can start small if you want and then increase the license count. Also, most of the time organization needs to change every year so scalability is important.

After trying Check Point Harmony, we did not need to try something else.

All staff were told we had to use it on work devices - yet were allowed to use it on our personal devices also if we were interested in doing so. I accepted the offer and since doing so I have been able to depend on it to prevent me from accessing malicious Wi-Fi spots when someone pretending to be the carrier's Wi-Fi on the underground nearly had me connecting. 

It has warned me about and blocked malicious apps, which was more useful when I was on an Android device, however, it still flagged Apple apps for me also - which was a surprise to me as I had assumed these were vetted and controlled by the Apple App Store. 

Ultimately I feel better having this. I know I can be more laid back about connecting and using apps. The odd time it flags something, it isn't obtrusive - it just lets me know why. 

It has meant that the entire fleet of mobile phones is secure from malicious network connections and that users can freely download apps (within reason) without there being any cause for concern with data loss, malware, theft, and so forth. 

We're able to be an organization that allows users to make the most of their phones, and therefore get more done since everyone can be flexible knowing they're protected. 

Management can see all devices on one panel and easily highlight any devices under threat.

The threatening app feature was super useful when I was on Android. There are so many copies on various app stores; it felt like the Wild West for me, and Harmony was able to help me feel comfortable that if I made a mistake, I wasn't going to hand over the keys to the kingdom. 

On the Apple App Store, it also surprised me by showing me apps that were malicious in ways that weren't flagged by Apple. I was able to report these and be more aware. I also like that when I want to use Wi-Fi in places, I can search for the official network; there's always a concern that it might be a spoofed network. Using this, I can quickly get an alert if things seem bad and I won't be able to accept or send data through that network if it isn't safe.

I would love to see what other features they can add in the future. I would quite like to be able to block ads on my phone by blocking known inbound ad websites and services. 

I honestly am surprised that they have not simply gone to the mobile phone firms that build these devices, to have the solution installed at source and baked into the OS. It feels like the kind of business proposal that would benefit all parties except the scammers and criminals out there. 

A personal use license for my family would also be a handy thing. If you could go into the app store and buy it, then manage from home, that would be ideal. It seems like you need to have management to be able to do that - which is obstructive. 

I have had Harmony installed on my personal phone for around four to five years now and I love it. At first, I didn't think it would be useful, however, it has highlighted and prevented so many threatening situations for me over the years and I feel confident that having it has been a benefit to me. 

The app is extremely stable and unobtrusive. It takes up very little space, and I have noticed no battery impediments at all. 

The solution is extremely easily scaled. You mail all members of staff and ask them to scan the hyperlink in the email, the app sets itself up and shows on your management dashboard. If you have 500 phones, and your dashboard says you only have 490 people installed, you can quickly see who hasn't and then remind them. 

The support on this is very simple since the app itself is elegantly simple. It receives regular updates, and your support partner can access the development team to request features or fixes easily. 

Positive

No, I did not use a different solution. This was the first time I had considered security for my phone.

The initial setup is extremely straightforward. We received an email saying to scan a QR code to install and set up the app. We input the login details provided, and we were done. From the company perspective, they had to log into the management suite, set the rules they wanted to activate, and send the emails. 

It was very brief and fast to set up, and extremely quick to review and ensure compliance was universal. As soon as threats were found they were flagged. Users could not use any malicious apps or networks. The devices are protected immediately. 

The vendor team was our own in-house team and they delivered this extremely swiftly. That said, any team could handle the process, to be honest.

It has meant that I have not lost data or had my phone damaged by malicious apps and network connections so I feel that my ROI has easily been worth two to three phones. For the business, it means peace knowing that all members of staff are secure and cannot accidentally break their phones, damage the company's reputation, and lose customer data, which is a huge ROI for such a small cost per user. 

This is a very low-cost solution, however, it is always important to make sure you are talking to an elite partner to get the best pricing, and that you talk through your needs and have them review the features and how they benefit you as if your needs are more or less extensive than first thought you may be able to make an alternative purchase that gets you what you need most. 

My employer evaluates all solutions available on the market before deciding which one to use. Outside of the likes of MobileIron, I am not sure. 

We require a tool that could control and monitor mobile devices, which was one of the primary factors in our decision to adopt Check Point Harmony Mobile. With this tool, we had that capability. We were able to shut down a security hole that was harming our company. The user can connect to the company and access corporate data via this technology, enabling them to adhere to a more secure standard. With the help of the Harmony Mobile panel, each mobile has implemented policies that govern access. It is used by us to control mobile connections. It is a cloud-based solution that is installed on Check Point's cloud.

Prior to having this solution, our users were vulnerable to infections of any kind on tablets and mobile devices used for business. We have reduced these dangers by utilizing Harmony Mobile's security, which helps both the user and the administrator. With the help of Check Point Harmony, mobile users also have the same level of protection as the business's computers and laptops do and users are also secure to use on both iOS and Android. Observe Point Mobile devices used by employees are protected from dangerous software and attacks on their network or operating system.

Check Point's Sandblast Mobile solution integrates with Mobile Device Management and supports Android and iOS operating systems. Two profiles are created for each mobile device when it is configured. There are two types of profiles - personal and professional - and various security guidelines can be applied to each. 

Real-time scanning is only one of the amazing capabilities offered by this tool. 

The simple navigation offered by the graphical user interface is excellent. 

We value the centralization it brings about.

The tool is excellent for security purposes, and it gives a lot of information. That said, there needs to be some improvement in everything related to administration and assistance. 

The ability to integrate local and cloud technologies to create a hybrid scenario would be an upgrade. 

Making this tool compatible with Google MDM is one of the enhancements that must be made. 

The increased load on an outdated terminal, which slows them down, is another item to consider. 

It would be preferable if they could incorporate application vulnerability management.

This solution is required for one of the internal needs of our organization. We need the product based on our need for the control of access to corporate resources. We were looking for a solution that allows us to generate the management of mobile network devices and something that could secure all systems in the best way possible, thus giving us a solution that allows for general device management. With this product, our organization will be able to monitor and control the devices used by each of our employees in the organization, which gives us an level of adequate security configuration and allows us to comply with internal policies.

As a security solution for devices, it can benefit us in many ways, including providing us with data security, access control, network security, and more. The kinds of features on offer provide us with confidential access to information, ensuring each of the different devices is protected while improving the productivity of employees. In summary, this solution can help us protect business resources in the best way possible, which can be translated into efficient and profitable security.

A very important feature that is outstanding and helps our organization is the ability to protect the business data stored on each device. This is especially important since these devices are used to create information, catalogs, products, customer information, and inventory. Every time they are outside the company, the solution provides us with a secure connection from the devices to the database, thereby keeping data safe. In addition, we can improve the productivity of each of the employees remotely. This benefits to the company in terms of sales or productivity even from different locations. 

One thing that should be improved in the future of the ability to ensure that mobile devices are protected from connections in environments with unlimited connectivity. 

In some cases, devices may be found in areas with little or no signal, which can make it difficult to connect to the network. That makes it difficult to use the solution. We ned to ensue we have something that allows users to work effectively even without a strong network connection. This would allow us to have a solution that adapts to the challenged presented by limited connection environments.

I've used the solution for one year.

We were busy protecting many of the devices used today by managers, sales teams, and those departments that have to be moving very frequently due to all these uncertainties. 

We were busy protecting the content, data, and information that was downloaded and all those objects or information that is shared with different departments to be secured in a simple way on the mobile devices to which access was given. 

For this reason, we have searched for solutions that could allow us to secure the departments' devices that have permissions outside the institution (based on the role or position they have).

One of the features that have given us additional value is being able to encrypt and block how data is shared within cell phones or mobile devices. This means that the data that belongs to the corporation will be encrypted and protected in a portion of the phone, with access to interactions against the data further protected within the device. It's a safe way to encapsulate, within a device, security to protect an organization's information.

The most valuable feature is being able to encrypt corporate data on devices that are not company devices (like personal cell phones), and being able to manage it remotely. This way, fired users can be removed and eliminated corporate data without affecting the personal data of its other users, thus being an efficient way to safely manage and administer the information that belongs to the corporation. 

We can easily secure the information of the company and the user's device so that if we find a vulnerability or some insecurity breach in these cell phones, the solution will indicate that the device is compromised and it will remove the corporate data to ensure the integrity of the data.

I would like to see management and remote administration functions in the same portal. I would like us to see it from the same centralized portal and be able to share its rules, its characteristics, and the advantages of cloud computing power. That way, we would have a more central way to manage the computers that belong to or are managed by us. Check Point Harmony Mobile is one of the features that we can see that is easy to install. We would like to have that same flexibility when it comes to managing it on the same platform where we share it with other features of Harmony Endpoint, Harmony Browser, or the NGFWs.

I've used the solution for one year.

My main use case for Check Point Harmony Mobile is to support some of our power users who, even with the security provided by their laptops, need to access their workspace using mobile phones.

The power users, mostly tech administrators, are accessing sensitive company data and web connections through mobile versions of VPN to log into devices and routers, allowing them to quickly check issues without needing laptops.

The best features Check Point Harmony Mobile offers us include comprehensive threat prevention, which stands out for our team because we often forget to monitor phone activity, leaving us vulnerable to rogue malware and connections to rogue Wi-Fi networks.

Check Point Harmony Mobile has positively impacted my organization by simplifying IT operations, allowing quick check-ins without needing laptops, which provides peace of mind, knowing it's safe.

While it's more about the convenience, the speed at which support tickets are resolved has improved, marking a noticeable tick in efficiency.

One area Check Point Harmony Mobile can improve is the cost for the solution itself, which I find a bit expensive, but other than that, most of it should be okay.

Cost is indeed the main thing I would like to add about the needed improvements.

I have been using Check Point Harmony Mobile for one year.

Check Point Harmony Mobile is stable.

The scalability of Check Point Harmony Mobile depends on the number of users that you have.

My experience with customer support was smooth when I had to reach out to them.

I did not previously use a different solution before Check Point Harmony Mobile.

I have seen a return on investment in the form of time saved, as incidents are now easier to check-in on quickly, leading to reduced time spent fixing issues.

My experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing for Check Point Harmony Mobile was smooth.

I did not evaluate other options before choosing Check Point Harmony Mobile.

My advice for others looking into using Check Point Harmony Mobile is that if you're trying to secure a mobile workforce, this is definitely the solution for you, as Check Point is a trusted cybersecurity entity with feature-rich offerings. I rate Check Point Harmony Mobile 10 out of 10.

One of the main reasons why the implementation of Check Point Harmony Mobile was chosen was due to the fact that we needed a tool that had control and monitoring over mobile devices. Harmony Mobile provided us with that functionality. In this way, we were able to close a security gap that was affecting our organization. 

With this solution, users could connect to the organization and access the corporate data and thus comply with a more secure standard. 

Each mobile has applied policies through the Harmony Mobile panel and control the access

One of the great improvements that Harmony Mobile gave us is that it was possible to protect the mobile devices of each one of the users and thus not depend on the users to implement adequate security themselves. With a simple mistake or moment of carelessness, a user can accidentally cause great damage to sensitive company information.

With Harmony Mobile, users do not worry. It transmits all the security to this tool. Currently, with what has been happening in the world with Covid, many workers are working from home and with this solution, we can limit third-party access to devices.

It's important for it to have the main functions of Mobile Device Management (MDM), such as task automation, automatic application updates, they should also improve compatibility with other mobile device management (MDM) products on the market, ensuring correct operation between SandBlast Mobile and MDM. It's important for Point Harmony Mobile to be included in a broader offering so that it is not just a standalone product.

Harmony Mobile introduces many innovative features. One of them is URL filtering, which is very valuable in this tool. It offers to filter apps, protect privacy, and reject malicious or unauthorized downloads. It allows us to get an idea of how it protects the application through certain security levels that are threats, network applications and devices. Its administration and configuration is very simple. It is easy to use with its friendly interface, the solutions helped a lot to the security of the company.

Harmony Mobile is one of the first tools that we implemented in the organization when we entered into the protection of mobile devices. For many years all our staff did not have any restrictions on mobile devices. 

An improvement would be the compatibility of linking local and cloud solutions to create a hybrid scenario. They should allow adding a SIEM for additional functions. That said, in relation to the characteristics that it currently presents, it satisfactorily complies with the security of mobile devices.

One of the improvements that can be made is that they become compatible with Google MDM. 

When it comes to scanning the network, sometimes my SSI ID does not appear; it would also be a great plus if they could make a unified console where you can manage several Check Point products and thus not be opening different consoles to manage different products.

I have been using about three years..

The stability of the product is very good and it generates an excellent amount of monitoring reports.

It is a very scalable tool.

With the support, we have had good and bad experiences. Sometimes they take time to respond. Sometimes they give an accurate solution to the error presented.

Positive

A mobile device solution had not previously been implemented.

One of the parts that worried us was its configuration and administration, however, it was extremely simple.

The installation was done with a seller who demonstrated his ability and handling of the tool.

The investment made with this tool is very good. The information will be guaranteed, therefore, every penny invested is a good investment.

The cost is affordable. It competes with other technologies and the installation is easy to implement.

We have not opted for other technologies since we have implemented the Check Point line into our company.

It is a good tool that can be implemented in the organization and be sure that it will protect your mobile devices.

Our primary use case for the product is to secure corporate mobile devices, particularly those containing critical information or used by VIPs within our organization.

The platform's app scanning feature is valuable as it checks app reliability and identifies potential security risks, which is crucial for maintaining secure mobile environments.

The solution's false positive detection could be improved to reduce unnecessary alerts, the app's performance optimized to minimize device impact, and policy management simplified for easier deployment.

I have been using Check Point Harmony Mobile for approximately one and a half years.

The platform is scalable for larger organizations, but customization complexities in policy management can make deployment more challenging for extensive device quantity.

We used other security solutions previously but switched to Check Point Harmony Mobile due to its comprehensive feature set and reputation for effective mobile security.

The setup was relatively straightforward but could be challenging for less technically inclined users due to policy customization requirements.

We implemented the product with the help of our internal team, leveraging our cybersecurity and mobile device management expertise.

The improved security and reduced maintenance overhead contribute to a positive return on investment for our organization.

The product pricing is reasonable for the security it provides. 

We evaluated several alternatives, including SentinelOne and CrowdStrike, but ultimately chose Harmony Mobile for its robust security features and ease of deployment.

Harmony Mobile has significantly enhanced our mobile device security by effectively scanning apps for reliability, monitoring network connections for threats, and ensuring data protection.

It has been a reliable solution for our organization, significantly improving our mobile device security without excessive maintenance requirements.

I rate it a nine out of ten.
