Nasseer Qureshi - PeerSpot reviewer
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.

Scalable platform with intuitive features for detecting malicious files
The initial setup process is straightforward. We have to install the agent, create a package, and deploy it on servers. It has a prebuilt console managed by the cloud team of Cybereason. We don't have to worry about the console and concentrate on endpoint implementation. It takes ten days to deploy it on 10,000 devices.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The biggest value we found was ease of deployment. I haven't really used it much, so I can't really comment beyond that. I haven't used it much, but it's working."
"It is very powerful tooling that can be tuned a lot."
"It has extended OS support to ensure your legacy endpoints also have zero-day protection."
"It helps us to detect running malicious activity in our network and after the COVID situation, most users are working from home where it becomes very difficult for IT admin to maintain security so such type of solution definitely helps us to prevent cyber attacks."
"The license plans are also very nice and distributed - allowing for a separation between types of users with more basic or more advanced options."
"Check Point Harmony Endpoint offers top tier security, AI-powered threat prevention, and strong scalability, which stand out as the best features."
"We were under an attack in our environment, and the Check Point response was good because we didn't lose anything."
"The most valuable feature is forensics."
"Their EDR solution, the ability to mitigate issues through their command line, is probably the best feature that we've had. We use that all the time. It's very useful for doing investigations."
"Immediately we can pick up the computers in the network if any malicious operation that is triggered."
"We didn't have the visibility that we now have. It has increased our visibility by a lot. So, we put a lot more time into really looking at our environment and what is happening throughout our different networks. It has increased our visibility by around fivefold."
"The interface is user-friendly."
"I haven't had any issues with the solution. Stability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten."
"The dashboard is very good and you can consider it as an interactive UI."
"The solution is efficient."
"They do a very good job of providing multi-stage visualizations of malicious operations that immediately show all attack details across all devices and users. Since it is MalOp-centric model, you can see if there has been a similar operation across multiple machines. If it is the same thing appearing on multiple machines, you see all the machines and users affected in one screen."
 

Cons

"The only drawback is the integration process."
"Legacy VPNs and digital footprints should be minimized."
"The network monitoring features must be improved."
"Areas that have room for improvement are the scope of the product and, while I think the support is good, they can improve support as well."
"The web filter service could be improved."
"The solution needs more alerts to warn of attacks."
"Configuration with some applications did not take place effectively due to setup complications."
"There are a number of features behind paywalls which can be frustrating when you are already paying a premium."
"The network coverage becomes an issue most of the time."
"The integration with Microsoft solutions and Microsoft capabilities needs to be improved."
"Cybereason does not have sandbox functionality."
"Reporting could be a bit more granular so that we had the ability to check regions and countries. I just noticed that, for instance, if I look at our servers, it's either "contained" or it's "not contained". I don't have the option, for instance, to look at countries. It only allows me to look at users as one big group."
"There is room for improvement in the product features related to device control, particularly USB management."
"They need to improve their technical support services."
"Ad hoc higher-level reporting to senior management can be improved or can be implemented. That's definitely an area of improvement that they need to focus on."
"Compared to our previous endpoint, we have a lot more false positives and a lot more duplication of alerts. So we're chasing more alerts."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Check Point Harmony Endpoint is cost effective."
"The tool’s cost has increased by almost 300% in two years."
"In terms of licensing, have a buffer zone around your projects in terms of the amount of endpoints that you want to have. You can always have more, but it is best to leave room for a little increase or growth."
"The price of Check Point Harmony Endpoint is comparable to SonicWall. The price could be a bit lower."
"I rate the product price a four on a scale of one to ten, where one is low, and ten is high."
"The product is averagely priced. The product price is neither very high nor too low. The tool is not really expensive."
"We pay on an annual basis. There are no additional fees, they mostly tell us what we have to pay. We have budgeted for it."
"In addition to the standard licensing fees, there is a cost for support."
"This product is somewhat expensive and should be cheaper."
"Though it is not the cheapest solution but it fits our budget. We pay an annual licensing fee."
"On a scale of one to ten, where one is cheap and ten is expensive, I rate the pricing an eight."
"The pricing is manageable."
"In terms of cost, this is a good choice for our needs."
"In terms of pricing, it's a good solution."
"I do not have experience with the licensing of the product."
"I had to go through a third-party to purchase it, which I wasn't really pleased about."
