Check Point Harmony Mobile Reviews

The most valuable features of the solution are threat emulation, threat extraction, URL detection, antimalware, antivirus, and IPS. Check Point Harmony Mobile is a good option for users who want only incoming and outgoing traffic security for their Android and iOS devices.

Check Point Harmony Mobile lacks MDM capabilities, which are present in other MDM products, like IBM Security MaaS360, AirWatch, and Google Workspace.

Check Point Harmony Mobile is a stable solution.

I rate the solution a nine out of ten for stability.

Around two to three customers are using Check Point Harmony Mobile.

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

The technical support team's response time should be faster. Also, the engineers should come up with a proper solution plan, which is currently missing.

I have previously worked with Azure MDM, IBM Security MaaS360, and VMware AirWatch. The solution has better threat detection capabilities and catch rates than other mobile security vendors.

The solution’s deployment takes around five minutes. To deploy the solution, you need to deploy the agent to the endpoint Android. It will then be listed in the Infinity portal, and you can start configuring.

You need to download the agent from the Infinity portal, put it on your mobile, install it, and activate it. It will be reflected in the Infinity portal, and you can then configure the policy.

Check Point Harmony Mobile can help you with regulation compliance. Customers will secure all infrastructure that belongs to them because they are managing that infrastructure. However, they don't have any control over mobile devices connected to their network. Any threats to those particular devices can also affect your infrastructure if they are connected without any protection.

Check Point Harmony Mobile will ensure the device is clean in such cases. Even if the device gets connected to your infrastructure, there won't be any infection or any impact happening to your infrastructure.

Users have to pay a yearly licensing fee for each device, which is cheap.

Check Point Harmony Mobile is not so attractive and provides security only for mobile devices. Customers can use Check Point Harmony Mobile to secure their mobile devices, such as Android or Mac smartphones. However, it has less capability than an MDM (Mobile device management).

Check Point Harmony Mobile has a good advantage in terms of security posture and security threat detection and prevention. Check Point Harmony Mobile will help prevent 99% of attacks on mobile devices. It is easy to manage Check Point Harmony Mobile.

People bring their own devices and connect them to all the other unwanted networks. This causes traffic to flow to these devices from any network source, such as Wi-Fi, LAN, or other public networks. Deploying Check Point Harmony Mobile can ensure the endpoint is sanitized and clean for use at home and the workplace.

Overall, I rate the solution a six out of ten.

We used the solution to provide mobile threat defense for mobile devices (predominantly Apple iPhone/iPad). We evaluated numerous solutions from competitors including IBM, Better Mobile, Trend Micro, and others. Check Point is attractive since they are a market-leading firewall vendor and therefore we trust their filtering in terms of web and link protection beyond others who may rely on smaller or third-party feeds. We also found that the breadth of protections including app analysis and WiFi spoofing validation were helpful.

The solution was easy to deploy and provided a useful security enhancement for mobile devices. It allowed us to extend filtering technologies that we would generally expect to be available within an edge firewall to mobile devices - such as web content filtering and URL protection. With the prevalence of mobile phishing (including SMS phish which circumvents email filters), we felt that this was a useful security layer. Check Point is also a provider that we felt we could trust when adding products to our security stack.

The integration with Microsoft Intune scoped to the security group made deployment a breeze. Certainly, once the initial configuration was in place the process was smooth and devices began to appear in the Check Point Harmony portal automatically. Adding web and link protection was considered to be a valuable security enhancement and is a key benefit of using mobile threat defense. The fact that the product can also highlight changes in public IP addresses for known corporate WiFi SSIDs also helps to alert or prevent spoofing of internal WiFi networks.

We had some issues with loopback VPN DNS filtering stopping working periodically, however, this is something that we could probably iron out with support. In the end, we ended up disabling this feature and using Umbrella (which we also use). It is of course highly possible that we could have addressed this with their support team but in our scenario, it was easier to disable the functionality and run with a separate product that we already had available. Certainly, everything else worked fine and the alerts were very useful.

I first used the solution several years ago.

We had no stability issues with the solution save for the periodic VPN loopback internet outages with iOS agents that I'm sure could be resolved with support.

We don't foresee any obvious limits with the scalability of the solution for all but the largest of organizations.

Support engineers were friendly and communicable.

Positive

We had previously trialed better mobile but the minimum onboarding/barrier of entry costs were too steep. We are also more familiar with the Check Point brand. We've also used Trend Micro before yet found the feature set for iOS devices to be slim.

The solution has a straightforward setup - especially with Intune integration.

We did an in-house implementation.

ROI is impossible to compute.

Setup and recurring costs seemed reasonable and in line with other Check Point products.

We did evaluate IBM, Trend Micro, Better Mobile, and others.

Many clients have the product on their Android and iOS cell phones.

The product's VPN solution is super efficient, and our clients highly value ransomware protection on mobile. These two features are probably the most valuable aspects of this product. Check Point Harmony Mobile responds very fast to any cybersecurity attack. With that product, your mobile response is super fast.

It's very intuitive and allows fast deployment on many devices. Recently, the platform has become easier to configure and implement. It's a very good platform and very easy to use.

Some areas that could be improved with Check Point Harmony Mobile include embedding SD-WAN in mobile device products. Our clients are interested in this feature, so it could be a good idea if Check Point Harmony Mobile includes it in the mobile product.

I have been using the product for 15 years. 

The solution's stability is very good; I rate it a ten out of ten. 

The product's scalability is good. We may have some problems with some MDMs, such as I don't remember the brand of the MDM. We have also had many problems with delivering or installing the product. But it's easy and fast to implement or set up for our clients.

The solution's support is very good and fast. 

Positive

I rate the tool's ease of deployment a nine out of ten. 

Check Point Harmony Mobile's pricing is good. 

I recommended the solution. It's the only mobile product that I sell to our clients, so we trust Check Point Harmony Mobile 100 percent. I rate the overall solution a ten out of ten. 

I like the product's ability to offer IPS protections for mobile security.

There are certain shortcomings in the integration capabilities that a product offers. In the future, I would like to see the product offer more integration features.

I have experience with Check Point Harmony Mobile. My company has a partnership with Check Point.

Considering that the product is easy to use, user-friendly, and offers complete protection, I rate the product's stability an eight out of ten.

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

It is very easy for my company to get information from the product's support team. I rate the technical support a nine out of ten.

Positive

The product's deployment is easy. You only deploy the tool on the mobile device for the client or customer who wants to use it.

When I purchased the product for one of our company's clients, I realized that the price of the product was competitive.

I need to check with the clients in the industry who use Check Point Harmony Mobile and integrate it with other mobile management solutions. I simply managed the product and used it to protect and ensure that scanning processes were in progress while also checking the branch office security, reviewing CVEs, checking the implementation and interventions with the tool. The product offers ease of blocking. The solution also offers integration with Samsung, Microsoft, BlackBerry, and other solutions. The solution can be used for mobile protection and to protect applications.

The product is user-friendly for its customers. The solution also offers complete protection and simple management. The tool provides its users with the capacity to prevent malicious activities and phishing threats while also checking the mobile for malware or any other attacks on the device.

The solution is easy to deploy and to check for attacks in mobile devices.

The product's ability to adapt and offer security against the evolving threat landscape is good because it is easy for a user since there is only one application that they need to use.

I rate the overall tool an eight out of ten.

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. 

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.

Mobile device security is a top concern for our company today - and for good reason. In the new normal, remote workers increasingly access corporate data from their mobile devices, which means the company is more exposed to data breaches than ever before.

This product keeps corporate information safe by protecting employee mobile devices from all areas of attack: applications, networks, and operating systems. Check Point Harmony Mobile has enabled easy-to-manage, scalable security for any mobility management team.

Our companies have seen the need to give their collaborators the flexibility to work remotely yet the number of cyberattacks has increased in recent years due to the complexity of the administration and visibility of cross-device risks for security managers. This is where Check Point Harmony Mobile is supporting us very closely. With this solution, it is immediately securing the equipment that is connected outside of our organization and thus protects the equipment and data.

Check Point Harmony offers an almost intuitive implementation. The use and management of our portal is easy. It is integrating six security products in a unified way to protect all users, connections, devices, and access. Users get protection regardless of where they are, applications they access, or any device they use. Users face endless cyber threats such as malware, phishing, malicious emails, or ransomware zero-day attacks. In addition to detecting unauthorized use of SaaS applications and preventing data leakage, we get instant threat visibility.

Having a unified solution developed by one of the most reliable brands in the market gives our organization the peace of mind that data is safe anytime, anywhere. 

We know that for many companies, the management and administration of device and data security have been complex. However, Check Point Harmony Mobile solves and supports is in all this with solutions made for this need. At the moment, I would not change anything; from my perspective, it is complete.

Something that could be improved is the compatibility with older versions. In distribution centers where Android devices with version 4.4.0 used, the solution gives many errors. In newer versions, the tool complies with its proper functioning.

I've used the solution for one year.

With the support teams, it is a bit complex due to the absence of support in Spanish. Also, the guides that the support service provides us in many cases are complex and make it difficult to solve problems.

Positive

Harmony is not only great security for devices, it is a great analytics network that protects us from various attacks and that you can try with a simple and easy-to-configure agent on mobile devices.

We are mainly using it to manage mobile connections. It is a cloud solution, and it is deployed on the Check Point cloud.

We can manage different mobiles in the Harmony portal. For example, we can fix the version of the OS system that can connect to our network. Some applications are not authorized to be installed by the user. So, we can block those applications or versions.

Network protection, OS protection, application protection, and file protection are valuable. It is also easy to implement and manage.

If possible, it would be better if they can include vulnerability management for applications. When a user installs many applications, if there is a way to manage a pack of applications, it would be helpful.

I have been using this solution for two years.

There is no problem with stability. We have had no issues since we started using this product.

It is very easy to scale. We have 10 users, and it is for our internal use. We are also a Check Point partner, and we use it on our mobile phones to show it to our customers during seminars or presentations.

I'm a support engineer, and I have contacted their technical support. I was with a customer who needed some information about the mobile UEM integration of Harmony Endpoint, and I had to contact their technical support to find out how we can do this easily. 

Their support is very easy to contact. We are a partner, and when we contact their support, they always respond on time. Their support is very good.

We were providing Kaspersky and Bitdefender to our customers before becoming a partner of Check Point. I don't know if Bitdefender has protection for mobile, but I know that Kaspersky has recently started developing for mobile. Check Point Harmony Mobile is better and more secure for mobile protection because of its stability and all the functionality. It is easy to deploy and manage.

Its initial setup is very simple. If any additional configuration needs to be done, I just receive an email. When a user is added to the portal, you receive an email with information about the server and the password. You can just click and start the application. It is very easy.

It is pretty fast. It just takes one minute for the installation and the first scan.

I do it myself from the office. I don't need an assistant from Check Point or anyone else. I just need to read the documentation. I can download the documentation from their website, which contains the information for installation and troubleshooting.

The maintenance can be done from the tenants in the cloud. You can do the updates and patching of the product in the portal.

At the moment, the price is good, but there is always scope for amelioration when it comes to pricing. When pricing is lower, it can make a customer buy the product. Customers ask us about the price of the product before allowing us to explain the functionality to them.

I would recommend this solution to others. It is easy to implement, and it is easy to manage. It covers OS protection, network protection, file protection, and application protection. It provides the best protection.

I would rate it a nine out of ten.
