ROI

Sentiment score

Cloudflare enhanced speed, security, and data protection, providing significant ROI and improved operations and client satisfaction for businesses.
Sentiment score
7.4
<p>Check Point Harmony Email &amp; Collaboration provides financial benefits by preventing phishing, increasing returns, and reducing breaches and costs.</p>
Sentiment score
7.1
Netwrix Endpoint Protector provides compliance, data security, and reduced IT workload, preventing breaches and satisfying auditors.
WordPress security can be tricky, and that's where Cloudflare can be absolutely helpful for small businesses.
For the small project I was working on, using the basic tier provided a huge improvement at zero cost.
In terms of return on investment with Cloudflare, it costs my time to set them up, but basically once they're set up, it's done.
The time saved during investigations is significant due to the neat dashboard that organizes everything related to alerts.
We have gone from three to four successful phishing attacks every year to a maximum of one.
There has been a 70% decrease in phishing emails and data breaches since implementing Check Point Harmony Email Security.
 

Customer Service

Sentiment score
7.0
Cloudflare's customer service is efficient for paying users, but responses can vary in speed and effectiveness for others.
Sentiment score
6.8
Check Point Harmony offers strong support with varying response times, suggesting improvements in speed and expertise are needed.
Sentiment score
7.7
Netwrix Endpoint Protector support receives mixed reviews, praised for responsiveness, but some cite delays and communication issues.
This would help us address issues promptly, especially during unforeseen events like DDoS attacks.
Cloudflare does not offer hands-on technical support to fix customer problems but rather a self-service model.
The key factor is the language in which the support is offered, which, in this case, is in Thai.
We opted for the 24/7 premium support, which is very responsive and quick whenever we have configuration challenges or other inquiries.
We understand that with respect to SLA, but we expect they can go beyond SLA and provide quick support for the client.
I ended up with a technician that didn't actually know how to resolve the issue and was just doing basic level one troubleshooting.
I would rate the technical support for Netwrix Endpoint Protector as a nine because we have trained engineers, and I am also trained.
I never needed to contact the vendor for technical support because we faced very few issues.
 

Scalability Issues

Sentiment score
8.1
Cloudflare is praised for seamless scalability, managing enterprise-level traffic efficiently and earning high customer satisfaction during peak events.
Sentiment score
7.8
<p>Check Point Harmony Email &amp; Collaboration efficiently scales with seamless integration for varying user loads and flexible cloud adaptation.</p>
Sentiment score
7.3
Netwrix Endpoint Protector is efficient and scalable, though some face challenges with policy management and non-Windows OS compatibility.
It is a SaaS tool, but the fact that they have workloads deployed across the world proves that it is a highly scalable tool.
The tool offers very good performance, even during high-traffic periods.
I rate the solution’s scalability an eight out of ten.
I would rate the scalability of Check Point Harmony Email and Collaboration as nine out of ten, indicating high scalability.
Scalability is limited, being only integrated with Microsoft Office 365 and G Suite at present.
Everything starts from the endpoint, and we maintain the Endpoint DLP in many cases while working alongside existing DLP systems.
This solution is scalable because prior to onboarding it, we took references from the vendor, the implementation vendor, and the CoSoSys team.
 

Stability Issues

Sentiment score
7.6
Cloudflare is widely regarded as stable and reliable, with improvements noted in uptime and performance on higher plans.
Sentiment score
7.8
Check Point Harmony Email is stable, efficient, and secure, effectively managing large email volumes with reliable uptime and minimal issues.
Sentiment score
8.2
Netwrix Endpoint Protector is praised for high stability, reliable performance, minimal downtime, and excellent support across environments.
For DDoS protection, I would not recommend Cloudflare.
I rate the solution’s stability an eight out of ten.
The service is very stable with no impacts during high-traffic periods.
The product has been around for over 15 years now and is very stable because I started using them from version three.
Stability-wise, the solution is stable; we experienced no downtimes during our two years of usage.
 

Room For Improvement

Cloudflare requires improvements in analytics, CDN speed, API, technical support, DNS management, documentation, pricing clarity, and international and reseller support.
<p>Check Point Harmony Email &amp; Collaboration needs upgrades in performance, integrations, documentation, support, detection, reporting, and user interface.</p>
Netwrix Endpoint Protector needs improvements in customization, installation, UI consistency, alert notifications, and network DLP features across platforms.
There's a need for improvement in areas like AI-based DDoS attacks and Layer 7 WAF features.
Despite these challenges, overall, Cloudflare remains the preferred solution compared to Azure, AWS CloudFront, and Google Cloud Armor.
The timing aspect can lead to it being considered overpriced. This is a particular concern we have with Cloudflare, as they may struggle with accurately detecting the client.
Updates based on AI and reduced administrative overhead by adding or bulk adding new users, along with graphical enhancements to the GUI, would also be beneficial.
Enhancing reporting capabilities with customizable and advanced analytics features would greatly improve our ability to detect trends and proactively address emerging threats.
It would be better if HEC also provides support for third-party email service solutions, such as IBM HCL Notes, creating more opportunities.
Netwrix is known as the best DLP for Apple Macintosh computers, which is noteworthy.
Not all the policies applied to the Linux clients were as effective as those for Mac and Windows.
 

Setup Cost

Cloudflare offers cost-effective, scalable plans with no setup fees, starting from free for small businesses to enterprise-level solutions.
<p>Check Point Harmony Email &amp; Collaboration offers competitive pricing with flexible licensing and robust security, though some find it slightly higher.</p>
Netwrix Endpoint Protector offers competitive pricing, flexible subscriptions, and aligns costs with features for organizations of various sizes.
That's where Cloudflare shines for smaller businesses – it's ten times cheaper than Akamai.
I find it to be cheap.
I think they should consider reevaluating the pricing for support, as it can be quite high.
Pricing is a bit expensive, but it is worth it considering the features that Check Point provides.
I consider the pricing to be a bit expensive, similar to other solutions.
The pricing is lower compared to what I used before.
 

Valuable Features

Cloudflare enhances security, speed, and SEO with easy-to-use features like CDN, SSL, DDoS protection, and centralized management.
Check Point Harmony Email provides advanced threat protection, easy Microsoft 365 integration, real-time insights, and AI-driven email security.
Netwrix Endpoint Protector offers device control, content-aware protection, robust compliance, and security controls for cross-platform data protection.
The most valuable features of the solution are performance and security.
Techniques like minification and image compression reduce the size of assets, leading to better performance and faster user load times.
The solution has been able to compare it to the market, and I think the product has taken great strides in automating quite a bit of things, and they use a lot of AI.
The most valuable feature is spam detection and phishing site prevention, which Microsoft couldn't catch, yet Check Point does.
Check Point Harmony Email and Collaboration offers online support and has tight integration with Microsoft.
The protection and scanning of emails are also appreciated, as they secure everything in the email spectrum.
Assuming if there's a breach, we will be able to know exactly where the breach has occurred and what has occurred, and they are quite granular in how they report their information, including their logs.
Netwrix Endpoint Protector works on Linux and macOS to block USB ports, control internet access, and manage other peripheral ports.
License utilization was a concern as when we were changing the hostname from asset category to asset tag and from personal hostnames to asset tags, it started taking multiple licenses.

Carlos Alam Hernandez Baruch - PeerSpot reviewer
Fast and secure deployments simplify operations for government and fintech clients
It is a fast and secure DNS. It is very easy to deploy, and my customers are happy with this tool. Additionally, the CDN performance in Mexico is excellent, providing fast service and tools. It offers reliability during high-traffic periods, ensuring no impact on the environment. It helps my clients avoid using on-premise boxes, simplifying operations as they only use the prices on Cloudflare.
Nasseer Qureshi - PeerSpot reviewer
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.
Sivakumar Mahathevan - PeerSpot reviewer
Provides robust compliance with advanced threat protection and user-friendly interfaces
The features of Netwrix Endpoint Protector that I have found most valuable so far are the two main key modules which are Content Aware Protection (CAP) and Device Control (DC), which is the hottest selling item from my perspective as a consultant. I find CAP and DC valuable because they are very granular in nature and it's easily understood and easily configured. That's why it's easy for us to actually position this product to any organizations with no complications. My impression on the multi-layered protection features of this solution is quite positive because now they've expanded to more things in the DLP itself, that are as good as an enterprise DLP solution. Therefore, I feel that in terms of its pricing values and so on, it is very competitive. I assess the value of the comprehensive reporting and auditing capabilities provided by Netwrix Endpoint Protector as very good because I am a user myself prior to this, before becoming a reseller and now a distributor. I am actually a walking dictionary for this particular product. The comprehensive reporting and auditing capabilities are quite granular in terms of gaining insights. We can actually deep dive into quite a lot of things and find a lot of information that they already have. Assuming if there's a breach, we will be able to know exactly where the breach has occurred and what has occurred, and they are quite granular in how they report their information, including their logs. Therefore, they conform to all compliance regulatory bodies too. My impression of the centralized management console feature of Netwrix Endpoint Protector is that it is one of the simplest centralized monitoring features that even a kid would understand, which is what we need in today's world—nothing complicated. My impression of the data encryption and control over portable storage devices features of this solution is that they are very good, especially the device controls, which I really enjoy using, particularly when it comes to portable devices USBs and the encryption tools that they have, which is another module called E-lock, or enforce encryption, that they do have. They are well-protected along those lines.
