Comprehensive defensive features boost daily protection and efficiency
I see a need for improvement especially in policy management and policy customization with Check Point Harmony Endpoint. As a new user, I find it somewhat difficult to customize and apply policies due to the various options available. I would appreciate improvement in fine-tuning those policies and integrating with other tools, such as being able to send logs from Check Point to our SIM or syslog solution. The user interface is good, and I really appreciate it, but improvements are needed in policy customization and integration with third-party products. Additionally, I would prefer to see a mechanism to send agents directly from the console to an endpoint during installation.
Abhimanyu Raj - PeerSpot reviewer
Alerts and notifications have enhanced malware detection capabilities
These features are probably the most essential for me. I find the notifications and alerts received from CrowdStrike server to be invaluable. They analyze Falcon and provide output regarding any kind of infected malware devices or files. We have seen returns on our investment in more than thousands of instances, which is the most important part for us.
