Offers robust threat protection and saves costs significantly
One area for improvement in Check Point Anti-Spam and Email Security Software Blade involves the firmware updates; sometimes, until I update the firmware of the Check Point Quantum Sparks, I cannot access the GUI to see my data usage. If Check Point resolves this issue, everything will be much better.
Joji John - PeerSpot reviewer
A simple and easy-to-handle solution that does not need multiple configurations, but its pricing could be improved
Trustifi Inbound Shield is a simple and easy-to-handle solution where we don't have to go for multiple configurations. A single IT admin supporting over 100 or 200 users can easily understand everyday reports. Trustifi Inbound Shield is a user-friendly solution that even simple lay people can understand. The product helps our customers avoid 95% of unwanted phishing emails.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Since the engine is made to block by IP, domains, and reputation, we minimized the spam threats that end up in the user's mailbox."
"Using Check Point has helped us to safeguard our environment and help to protect against spam, as well as other types of attacks against our network."
"Check Point Anti-Spam and Email Security Software Blade provides an extra level of security against threats and malware along with 2FA support for multiple platform collaboration and integrations in a single click."
"This product integrates well and is easy to manage."
"It refreshes the dynamic database regularly to ensure IP addresses that no longer misbehave are not blocked by mistake."
"It helped us to achieve process compliance with over 90% effectiveness."
"Check Point Anti-Spam and Email Security Software Blade positively impacts my organization by protecting our network from cyber threats such as malware and unauthorized access, helping control traffic and keeping our data safe, thus making our internet more secure and reliable and providing peace of mind."
"Anti-spam and malware phishing are valuable features of the solution."
"Trustifi Inbound Shield is a simple and easy-to-handle solution where we don't have to go for multiple configurations."
 

Cons

"The cost is high when putting through Check Point Blade in your Gateway."
"They should upgrade support services and make a more user-friendly database."
"Check Point Anti-Spam and Email Security Software Blade has been stable for me; I only faced downtime twice in seven months due to automatic restarts for firmware updates, which is a downside."
"It would be useful to have more logs and in aggregate mode, perhaps through a specific report, that can be more easily used for troubleshooting."
"It does not provide for standalone configuration on the security gateway. Instead, you need to have a management server/smart console for managing it."
"Check Point Anti-Spam and Email Security Software Blade could improve by focusing more on promoting and marketing its products. Despite having a great solution, it hasn't captured a larger market share, possibly due to insufficient promotion. It should also incorporate a module to monitor client identities, similar to CrowdStrike. It could also improve by systemizing and simplifying their documentation to make it easier to find needed information."
"Recognizing spammers and spam email sourcing is extremely lagging these days, and the performance could be improved to provide better efficiency."
"The support language is only English."
"The solution's pricing is very high compared to other products like Barracuda and should be improved."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"This is a simple system with a very low cost and basic functions, which surely is ideal for a small company."
"Reasonably priced solution."
"I rate the product pricing a seven out of ten."
"I rate the pricing as an eight on a scale of one to ten, where one is cheap and ten is expensive."
"The cost is competitive with other security products on the market."
"For licensing, my company makes yearly payments, which is expensive."
"Choosing the correct set of licenses is essential because, without the additional software blade licenses, the Check Point gateways are just a stateful firewall."
