Find out in this report how the two Cloud Workload Protection Platforms (CWPP) solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."Initially, I liked the telemetry part. But later, we used the microsegmentation features that we were able to deploy and found that they really stood out from other vendors. It allows us to see microsegmentation as distributed services."
"The label-based segmentation is the most valuable feature."
"I found the solution to be stable."
"Application Ring-Fencing and Deception Server, which is basically like a honeypot, are pretty useful features."
"The tool is a complete package that offers many features like visibility. You can get a graph with real-time workflows and visibility into server-to-server communication. We get visibility into many things happening within our environment."
"That is primarily because I've seen increased rules. It's kind of caught us a little off guard. With GuardiCore, I have had to deal with their technical support and engineering team in Israel. They are amazing. They are very quick to adapt."
"The solution is very scalable, especially when connected to the cloud resources."
"The interface and dashboard are amazing."
"The first most remarkable thing is the integration with the Office 365 solution, which is easy, fast, and totally transparent for the user."
"The feature I find to be most valuable is very much the zero-touch provisioning. I was able to be up, operational, and 100 percent functional in less than a half an hour."
"We are able to protect sensitive business data and maintain regulatory compliance with advanced data leak prevention (DLP)."
"The product offers good and easy integration capabilities with other products."
"In my opinion, it's one of the best products. It does protect other things like Slack and Salesforce, which are more about communication."
"Based on domain and URL reputation, it will allow traffic to flow."
"Data loss and data leakage prevention are well deployed which helps businesses to scale and expand effortlessly without any trouble."
"The product is reliable and sturdy."
"It would be very helpful for beginners if the solution had more windows to help with the terms inside instead of going to the documentation."
"Incident tagging could be improved. Other vendors offer semi-automatic tagging, which Guardicore doesn't yet have."
"In our version, when using the terminal server, we cannot exclude user tasks for each session."
"Kubernetes is not installed in the way we need it."
"The maps could go a bit faster. They are useful but slightly slow."
"The long-term management of the security policies could be improved with some kind of automation platform, something like Chef or Puppet or Ansible, to help you manage the policies after day-one... to then manage the policies and changes to those policies, going forward, through some type of automation process is not turning out to be really easy."
"The dashboard needs improvement. It should be more flexible so that I can easily see what I want or need to see."
"Guardicore Centra should incorporate automation so that we don't require to write custom scripts and APIs. The tool also has limitations on rules where it allows only sixty thousand rules. Our clients have also commented that there are too many manual clicks and effort to do changes. I think that the incorporation of automation can help our clients make changes with confidence and without the possibility of human error."
"They must provide security to more email service providers."
"Although it has good characteristics, it should improve the graphical interface and the latency that it sometimes presents."
"Cloud Guard would be a complete solution if Check Point added a comprehensive data loss solution that included capabilities such as bulk data transfer detection."
"The business team should be further expanded, and more peer feedback should be made available publicly to have better and complete visibility of the application globally."
"They could continue to offer more stringent security policy measures for threat point management."
"A phishing simulator would be helpful as a user training module."
"The product's pricing needs improvement."
"They could improve Check Point support response times. Sometimes it takes days to resolve or even days to get a first response."
