Centralized management with full disk encryption and helpful authentification capabilities
They should improve the interface and make it a little more user-friendly. They should also improve performance in encrypting and decrypting data more efficiently. A lot of machine resources are consumed; they should improve the audit area of the tool and make it more It is also efficient to add some type of remote access functionality for data recovery or integration with policy management tools.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"We never had any complaints about the performance of computers with this tool to be able to manage the protection of disks and drives."
"It is a cross-platform tool."
"It keeps the devices well monitored."
"Encryption prevents data loss which can cost the organization a lot of resources."
"The solution provides complete security for one's workstation."
"They have Disc Encryption, Anti-Malware, and a VPN Blade which is beneficial for us."
"It's easily scalable and adaptable to the needs of the business."
"The encryption ensures each of our drives is not invasive and that the user does not have a bad experience even while the drive is being encrypted."
"The integration features are the most valuable. The integration is specific to each solution. It works well with SQL and Oracle databases and so on."
 

Cons

"The price is high for small scale business enterprises."
"When I changed the way I connect to the tool to the SMS option, I did it because I bought a new phone, and it had a problem connecting with the tool, after which I had to go to the settings to change it, so I felt it was not very intuitive."
"I rate the support from Check Point Full Disk Encryption Software Blade a six out of ten."
"They could improve the latency in the platform when entering the portal."
"They should improve the interface and make it a little more user-friendly."
"I would like to bring centralized management to mobile devices."
"The encryption is fast; however, when it comes to generating decryption of the OS disks, it is sometimes very slow, generating a loss of time."
"There are a few cases of security breaches when the networking system fails and can lead to malware attacks. The next release should focus more on data virtualization and support for all computing devices."
"On the exchange server, you do not have the best options for adjusting your mailbox. This feature is not included. Also, disaster recovery backups can be improved. Some other solutions, such as HP Data Protector, have more features."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"As it costs $125 per workstation per year, something which is above the price of what the competition is charging, the solution is definitely too expensive."
