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.

Reliability and threat intelligence make this solution competitive, but AI improvements can further enhance its effectiveness
The best features of Trend Micro Deep Discovery Email Inspector include its reliability. The second valuable feature is its built-in sandbox feature, allowing for inspection of incoming emails and attachments. The sandbox is an appliance that opens any attachment in an enclosed environment to assess its impact and potential for viruses. This protects the network from harmful threats. Trend Micro has a very large R&D team with excellent threat intel, allowing them to provide better solutions than some competitors. They understand emerging threats based on the information from their EDR. The key strengths can be summarized as reliability, a good integrated one-box solution that includes a sandbox, and their R&D capabilities and good ratings, which lead to better threat intelligence. The detailed threat intelligence provided by Trend Micro Deep Discovery Email Inspector is valuable in understanding the behavior and tactics of potential email threats.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The product is a fairly complete and centralized solution accessible through the Infinity Portal."
"We are able to protect sensitive business data and maintain regulatory compliance with advanced data leak prevention (DLP)."
"The API is its most valuable feature. On the API side, relative to the rest of the market, Check Point is decades ahead of its competitors."
"We have managed to have an impressive reduction in phishing that used to enter our system before applying Check Point."
"It helped us to bring security compliance and ensure system robustness throughout."
"Based on domain and URL reputation, it will allow traffic to flow."
"Check Point's technical support is very good."
"It's very easy to use, and the onboarding process is straightforward."
"I highly recommend Trend Micro Deep Discovery Email Inspector due to its security and scalability features."
"I find Trend Micro to be a good solution for security purposes."
"I would rate the solution's stability at ten out of ten."
"The best features of Trend Micro Deep Discovery Email Inspector include its reliability."
"It can effectively monitor outbound and inbound devices."
"Trend Micro is a very good product."
"The solution's most valuable features include visibility into the network and fast sandboxing technology for alerts, though response time can vary."
"I like that it is very user-friendly and easy to install."
 

Cons

"The solution fails to support hybrid deployments."
"There is always room for improvement and growth."
"From time to time, the system's administrators notice the increase in the false-positive alerts being reported by CloudGuard SaaS."
"I would rate the customer support a four, maximum, because I have had to reach out to them, and it wasn't great. I ended up with a technician that didn't actually know how to resolve the issue and was just doing basic level one troubleshooting, so it was very time-consuming to work with them."
"Harmony Email & Collaboration could be improved by making the whitelist available on the website and application level."
"For tech people who want to dive deep into self-servicing capabilities, Check Point could improve in this area."
"A phishing simulator would be helpful as a user training module."
"Support can be a bit quicker in helping the customer."
"It could be more user-friendly, easier to install, and lighter on the network. I would say that for all products because you do not need technical expertise to take care of it. When you have a user-friendly solution, it makes it easier for the vendors or companies like us. We do not have to go to the client's site to attend to issues all the time. Because it is user-friendly, they can take care of it after some training."
"The tool needs to incorporate faster response times for issue detection, more detailed reports, and better compatibility with older operating systems (e.g., Windows 7, 8, Server 2012)."
"Trend Micro's technical support has room for improvement."
"To improve Trend Micro Deep Discovery Email Inspector, it should have updates with better AI and ML-based integration."
"Trend Micro Deep Discovery Email Inspector could improve by making it easier to use. Microsoft solutions are easier to use."
"The dashboard could be improved to match the quality of Check Point Harmony's dashboard."
"The product's feature for message processing and blocking devices for bulk emails needs improvement."
"Trend Micro's technical support has room for improvement. More efficient support should be provided, especially for standard support."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The price is very good, based on what they deliver."
"Usually, we pay for the licensing part on a yearly basis and not on a monthly basis. If Check Point's team is providing a good amount of discount, then it is very easy for us to select it since its competitors are also giving the best prices or best discounts."
"The product’s price is very high."
"The pricing and licensing are always negotiable."
"I rate the platform’s pricing a seven and a half."
"The difference between [Check Point and its competitors] boiled down to money. Price-wise, Check Point was very good, it was very competitive."
"I rate the product's pricing a five on a scale of one to ten, where one is cheap, and ten is expensive."
"The pricing is expensive."
"It's an expensive solution, and you may not see a return on investment in a short period of time. However, you will see a return over a long period of time."
"The solution's pricing is high, and I would rate it an eight out of ten."
"We pay for an annual subscription for this email security solution."
"The price of Trend Micro Deep Discovery Email Inspector is less expensive than Microsoft solutions."
