Reliable backups have protected our manufacturing data and now provide confident disaster recovery
Acronis Cyber Protect Home Office is used to take care of the data for our manufacturing company and its users. I work with CrowdStrike only for antivirus. We have antivirus products, but not as a main solution. The antiviruses we are using are from another vendor. For antiviruses, we are using Falcon CrowdStrike. My main experience is with CrowdStrike antivirus and Palo Alto firewall. These are the two things for security, and we are exploring other software solutions that will be beneficial for us. I track two levels of ransomware protection: one from Acronis Cyber Protect Home Office and one from CrowdStrike. I do not work with Cortex cloud by Palo Alto; I have the hardware on-premise at my location. I do not work with WildFire, Prisma Access, or Prisma SD-WAN, but I will be looking forward to it. This is the only firewall I am using, but very soon, I will be opting for another Palo Alto firewall of the same model that will be working on high availability. I am not knowledgeable about the CN-Series firewall; I can only talk about the one I have. We have acquired one particular brand, a company called Pernod Ricard, which manufactures products like Chivas Regal whisky and Beefeater. Endpoint Detection and Response is something we will explore after a certain period of time and we are looking for it very soon. I would rate this review an overall eight out of ten.

Dashboard customization is needed for improvements. While the centralized management is strong, the dashboard could offer more flexibility. It would be helpful to tailor views for different roles, such as IT or security support. Regarding needed improvements, custom report building could be enhanced. Current reports are informative, and a drag-and-drop builder would allow teams to create tailored views for compliance, executive summaries, or operational metrics. For further improvements, enhancing threat simulation and testing would be valuable. Building a threat simulation tool and adding native capabilities to simulate phishing, malware, or ransomware scenarios will help teams validate protection and train users without relying on third-party tools.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"The customer service and support are excellent."
"Acronis schedules in the background and does incremental images so it doesn’t take forever to backup."
"When it comes to backup, the biggest benefits of Acronis Cyber Protect Home Office are its reliability and the assurance it provides, which we have specifically tried and tested during disasters as it saved us from losing data."
"The reliable tool allows for quick restoration from backup copies, meaning I do not have to reload Windows or programs."
"The malware feature is most valuable."
"Check Point Harmony Endpoint has one of the most user-friendly dashboards I've seen."
"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."
"They have pretty much everything you can ask for as far as features are concerned. That is because they know their market. They are focused on what they do and they do only that."
"It offers a really simple and minimally invasive installation for users."
"We love that we don't have to upgrade it anymore. They take care of that."
"The product improved the overall security of our organization with the features like sandboxing and phishing prevention."
"The standout features are primarily EDR and MDR."
"Check Point Harmony Endpoint has positively impacted our organization by both improving efficiency and reducing incidents."
 

Cons

"I had a couple of false positives, but that’s it."
"I originally intended to use Acronis for cloud backup, however, the cloud backup had major problems."
"The configuration needs improvement."
"I originally intended to use Acronis for cloud backup, however, the cloud backup had major problems. After struggling with it for about two years, I switched to Carbonite and have not gone back."
"Acronis Cyber Protect Home Office needs to improve their reporting part, and the support provided is sometimes inadequate, which causes issues for customers."
"Dashboard customization is needed for improvements. While the centralized management is strong, the dashboard could offer more flexibility."
"It's not easy to investigate an incident that you find in the company. Users often face trouble when downloading files, so it is very slow in terms of how it works."
"The documentation of Check Point Harmony Endpoint needs improvement because it is very hard to find on the internet and it is not intuitive."
"There should be an indication when you assign an endpoint to be a local proxy for other endpoints. The current system doesn't clearly indicate whether the assignment was successful."
"Check Point Harmony Endpoint's GUI is old. It needs to have a modern dashboard for logging activities. Compared to other products, the solution is slow in terms of deep scanning."
"We know that Check Point has a very good database about threats even Check Point tries to make this EDR stable still there are some issues we were facing after upgrading or taking TAC to help its got resolved but Check Point really needs to work on metadata."
"The response from the tool's support team, which starts with L1, is something my company doesn't find helpful, especially when compared to the other solutions that we use."
"The documentation of Check Point Harmony Endpoint needs improvement because it is very hard to find on the internet and it is not intuitive."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"We pay roughly 80,000 Swedish krona per year. When it comes to the firewall, it's roughly 150,000 Swedish krona yearly. There's also maintenance, of course, which is roughly 10,000 krona per month."
"Initial monies replacing all AVs with a single product is about £10k."
"Licensing comes free in that first year or is included in the base package. From a commercial point of view, it really just is the renewal cost, rather than a one-time fixed cost or buy-in."
"The solution is reasonable, but there are cheaper solutions out there."
"The product is averagely priced. The product price is neither very high nor too low. The tool is not really expensive."
"We pay on an annual basis. There are no additional fees, they mostly tell us what we have to pay. We have budgeted for it."
"Check Point Harmony Endpoint is cost effective."
"Check Point Antivirus is the most economical solution."
