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.
GANESAN K - PeerSpot reviewer
Distributors highly benefit from advanced data monitoring and seamless integration features
The Machine Learning capability could be improved, particularly in data discovery. When given sensitive data expressions, the system retrieves files that are not always related. The system should adhere strictly to the given expression rather than just focusing on keywords within the expression. In endpoint features, while the detection rate is good, there could be improvements in remediation and rollback solutions during attacks. Other solutions now include such options since providing 100% security is impossible. The flexibility varies across environments. Enterprise customers find the product performs well without affecting their data, with scans running as scheduled. However, SMB customers experience some performance issues during scanning. Since EDR is integrated, users must access the EDR console to check endpoint detections. It would be beneficial if this functionality were incorporated within the EPO console, as the current threat graphs link doesn't display endpoint threat graphs.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The anti-phishing feature is the solution's best feature."
"The threat management database provides consistent updates."
"It seems quite scalable. We don't anticipate any scaling issues. We have it deployed in the cloud."
"We need the phishing detection and email quarantine. Once an email is considered malicious, it stays in the quarantine where we can interrogate it. We can check out why it was quarantined and see if it should be delivered to the individual."
"Encryption of emails enhances safe communication that ransomware attacks cannot compromise."
"Its analysis or emulation in the review of each file using the cloud and Check Point helps make each interaction via email more secure."
"In my opinion, it's one of the best products. It does protect other things like Slack and Salesforce, which are more about communication."
"I appreciate the ease of deployment and the intuitive dashboard. Even someone with basic IT knowledge can easily understand the dashboard and identify potential threats."
"Trellix DLP offers many features, using EDR, EPP, disk encryption, and other features."
"The solution involves implementing the confidentiality, utility, and availability principles."
"The solution is stable and does not have glitching issues."
"The most effective aspect of Trellix DLP is that it does what it's supposed to do. It is fairly simple to use compared to Proofpoint."
"Trellix DLP has an agent that continuously scans the endpoint and sends the data to the portal. From there, it continuously leverages data from its threat intelligence."
"Scalability is feasible since it's on-premises. It's easy to scale there."
"I rate the product an eight out of ten."
"It prevents enterprises from installing external software and devices and can block specific network pathways."
 

Cons

"Check Point should integrate with features available in Barracuda - like more advanced threat management."
"Check Point should integrate with features available in Barracuda."
"Harmony Email & Collaboration could be improved by making the whitelist available on the website and application level."
"Some files are not scanned thoroughly due to occasional network failures."
"After updates, the internet connection fails, and I have to restart my desktop to resume initial functionalities."
"Although it has good characteristics, it should improve the graphical interface and the latency that it sometimes presents."
"Integration is currently limited to Microsoft Office 365 and Google G Suite."
"Check Point has to continue refining the intelligence engine to minimize the number of false positives."
"I would rate the solution seven out of ten based on my last experience within the last six months. It's a bit of a fallback, and I know they are working on improving scalability."
"Trellix DLP can improve by addressing the lack of features such as deep drive DLP and email notifications present in other solutions like Forcepoint."
"Trellix needs to improve customer support."
"Virtualization is complex and requires proper training. However, once you get trained, it is a very good product."
"Coverage for Mac OS is lacking as features like clipboard and print protection don't function as expected."
"In future releases, I would like to see like to see encryption available on the cloud-based version."
"It's not very user-friendly for a beginner, so it would be easier if the platform or console were manageable or user-friendly. The dashboard could be simplified."
"Having someone within a region who understands the countries and how they approach data and information security is sometimes where the problem lies."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The cost is similar to other competitors. It's not much higher."
"This is a very good product if you are on the cloud, but the price is a little more expensive."
"Cost is the main concern that every customer takes into consideration, and Check Point always negotiates a price that is affordable."
"The difference between [Check Point and its competitors] boiled down to money. Price-wise, Check Point was very good, it was very competitive."
"The pricing is competitive."
"I rate the platform’s pricing a seven and a half."
"I rate the product's pricing a five on a scale of one to ten, where one is cheap, and ten is expensive."
"The price is very good, based on what they deliver."
"The pricing depends on the number of users in a company."
