Cloud security has improved remote access and has reduced costs for smaller client sites
I have used Cloudflare One's Identity-Aware Proxy, and it is quite straightforward from what I have seen so far. The app registration on the Azure side integrates fully into Cloudflare, and I am very satisfied with that part because it is easy to set up. The integration of Cloudflare One's Secure Web Gateway and Zero Trust Network Access works without any issues. That part is pretty automatic, and if you complete the rest of the setup, it comes together by itself with no issues from my side. What makes it nice is that we can actually start replacing on-site firewalls at this stage for the smaller clients because it does not matter if they go to a coffee shop or work from home; they are still secured by the same connection. The hops get shorter and you get better latency. We have done testing to see if it is better. One thing that we did notice with our proof of concept with our current client is that they have people connecting from the UK. When they used their previous VPN solution, uploading CAD drawings and other files to the server took a long time. They mentioned that it is much quicker on Cloudflare One's solution. I definitely believe that is part of the improved performance, and I am satisfied with that as well. What is nice about Cloudflare One is that it makes the setup easier and also easier to train technicians to maintain it. Compared to legacy systems, we do not need to get fancy firewalls in place that are costly. That is definitely also a cost-saver with Cloudflare One.

Email security effectively detects a wide range of threats and improves productivity
Since we have been using Check Point Harmony Email & Collaboration for a year, we haven't encountered significant challenges. However, it would be beneficial if it could support other email security services beyond Microsoft and Google. Integration with other platforms would enhance its appeal since the features are commendable. While the analytics are commendable, they don't provide deep dive insights. They show the overall counts of malware, phishing, and business compromise emails, but there isn't a robust ability to dive deeper into those categories to see specifics. Analytics should allow us to explore which users received malware emails the most or trends among departments. Currently, we have to sift through manually, which is not ideal. A more profound analytical capability would elevate the tool to become the complete email security solution for any user.

Ease of deployment and cost-effectiveness boost operational efficiency
I have recommendations for increasing dashboard customization. Currently, we are using custom dashboards, but they are not effectively customizable. If they provide better customization options, it would be easier to understand everything in a single dashboard instead of navigating through dropdown menus to see reports. Additionally, log retention is currently 30 days, but some customers request to extend it to 60 days. Having 60 days of log retention would be helpful for maintaining logs.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The simplicity of the solution is its valuable features as almost no effort was needed to learn the configurations. It is also one of the cheapest firewalls available in this category."
"I'm very satisfied with the environment and the dashboard."
"Clover is the best product globally."
"Cloudflare DDoS mitigates DDoS attacks."
"Cloudflare DDoS is better than its competitors for its security, deployment, and scalability."
"Cloudflare, in my opinion, was easy to implement."
"Cloudflare Zero Trust Platform removes the risk of exposing the applications to the public."
"Cloudflare Access is part of the Zero Trust philosophy."
"The solution has a very effective anti-phishing algorithm that detects a significantly higher number of phishing emails compared to the default Microsoft solution."
"It has just been phenomenal."
"The most valuable feature is the sandboxing feature. It provides a sandboxing environment where you can open links and see where they lead. You can see what is presented in the link after opening it."
"It seems quite scalable. We don't anticipate any scaling issues. We have it deployed in the cloud."
"In my opinion, it's one of the best products. It does protect other things like Slack and Salesforce, which are more about communication."
"The fact that we can share documents without emailing them and still be confident they will go through the corresponding scrutiny is great."
"The product's environment is easy to work and comprehensive."
"The dashboard provides information to investigate more about malicious activity and blocked emails."
"Trellix Email Security has positively impacted my organization because we previously experienced a data leak due to an email virus, but now we are secure and not experiencing any of these issues, which is beneficial for the company's important data that we can now protect from threats."
"Compared to other email solutions such as Cisco, price-wise, we get this solution within 50 to 60% of the average."
"Trellix Email Security is one of the good parts because all our organizations are very aware of email security and they are maybe using some exchange server, which is related to that email security purpose."
"Overall, I find Trellix Email Security to be a mature and ready solution, delivering very good protection, and scalability-wise, it is very promising."
"Even in my brief experience, I can clearly see how automation, AI-based analysis, and real-time monitoring improve response time and strengthen overall email security."
"Trellix Email Security is quite valuable and definitely provides a massive return on investments."
"Trellix Email Security has positively impacted my organization as it is user-friendly and does a good job detecting malicious attachments in email, providing complete email protection against all users and working well to stop advanced threats."
"For email spam and malware threat prevention, Trellix Email Security just works and I really appreciate the product."
 

Cons

"Our customers no longer use Cloudflare because its service is subpar."
"The pricing is an area that can be improved. Pricing, as far as I recall, was the source of our problems."
"The pricing is an area that can be improved. Pricing, as far as I recall, was the source of our problems."
"They don't have a person to provide support for customers using the solution under their free plan."
"The tool should provide on-premise versions. Currently, all versions are cloud-based."
"Feedback could be enhanced."
"Feedback could be enhanced. While I work efficiently with Clover as a partner in Mexico City, sometimes the information and requests are easier to manage with more concrete solutions."
"The response time for support must be reduced."
"We have used technical support, but their response time is very slow. It needs to be improved."
"We have only encountered some false positives that required us to whitelist certain third-party domains, mostly due to their poor email configuration preventing DMARC or SPF alerts."
"We still get some false positives. There are times when legitimate stuff gets flagged and it could be that somebody is expecting a very important email but they don't end up getting it. On the flip side, when we alert Check Point about stuff like this, it is corrected, so they are improving. That's a plus."
"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."
"Stability has been a pain point. I was going back and forth with my product engineer and project manager for a couple of months."
"There is too much functionality, which makes it difficult to use."
"They should consider a module that allows the customizing of reports so we can generate executive information for the client (to explain in simple language the general security situation in the SaaS environment)."
"Navigating between quarantine, threat logs, and policy settings sometimes feels clunky, requiring too many clicks to get to commonly used features."
"However, it was somewhat difficult to block URL-based threats and the security settings were complex, making it difficult for us to use features beyond basic security."
"For potential areas of improvement, Trellix can enable proper single sign-on as opposed to a local username and password."
"The biggest area for improvement in Trellix Email Security is the pricing. The solution is quite expensive."
"I think Trellix Email Security needs to improve different sides of email security, especially the filtering process."
"The main issue right now with Trellix Email Security is price-wise."
"Threat intelligence is adequate because they are using Microsoft GTI threat intelligence, but we need to increase protection against phishing and spam mails."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Cloudflare Zero Trust Platform's pricing is good."
"My company has to make yearly payments towards the licensing costs attached to the solution. There are no hidden charges apart from the licensing costs of the solution."
"The price tag is no longer $200,000, but rather $300,000 to $400,000. It's twice."
"The pricing of the solution is cheap. The licensing cost is also very low. I rate the cost and pricing a three out of ten."
"The pricing is somewhere in the middle. I would rate the pricing a seven out of ten."
"The solution's pricing lacks transparency."
"The solution is not that expensive."
"The prices are slightly expensive."
"I'm in this business as a system integrator, so I need to suggest Check Point to some customers who are comparing products. I sell Check Point, Fortinet, and Palo Alto solutions. In terms of licensing, this solution is quite competitive but very costly. For someone looking at security as a primary concern, they should only invest in Check Point. For a customer who is looking at security combined with pricing, Check Point might not be the core solution for them. In today's market, customers are looking for effective security with efficient pricing, and Check Point is not suitable for these types of customers."
"Cost is the main concern that every customer takes into consideration, and Check Point always negotiates a price that is affordable."
"The product is expensive."
"Due to its pricing, I would say that Check Point Harmony Email & Collaboration is more suitable for medium to enterprise organizations."
"The pricing is competitive."
"Being able to keep the phishing campaigns out of my company has been ROI for me."
"Having information stolen by a hacker would be more expensive than purchasing a license."
"The pricing and licensing are always negotiable."
