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.

Effective threat predictions, simple to deploy, and light on resources
Malwarebytes's initial setup is simple. It is easy to deploy and configure the policies and the configuration. I deployed Malwarebytes for one customer and I did it in under two days. They had approximately 50 users, it took approximately an hour. The steps I took for the implementation were downloading the Malwarebytes management console from the site, installing it, then running the discovery tool, scanning my network, and checking all of the PCs on my network. It's already pre-configured, you don't need to configure anything. The only configuration that I did on the administration console was some of the exclusion from the scan. This is the only rule that I have created. I rate the initial setup of Malwarebytes a ten out of ten.

Quotes from Members

Pros

"Check Point Harmony Endpoint protects our company by warning us against clicking any malicious links and prevents our hosts from becoming vulnerable to cyber attacks."
"The real-time threat prevention capabilities stand out as a fortress against malware, ransomware, and evolving cyber threats, offering a proactive defense that safeguards our organization's critical assets."
"It's great for securing our endpoints from any external attacks."
"In terms of network usage, it actually reduced the amount of malicious attacks that we had. Before, we really didn't have a secure network. Each endpoint had to protect itself and probably most of them were not actually protected. Now, it's an entire process in which we've been able to cut down significantly the amount of malicious attacks by 60 percent that we get in the organization. It helps us to adequately monitor what has been going on with our network traffic and stopping individual attacks from accessing certain sites where we want to have restrictions or limitations."
"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."
"Its ease of use is the most valuable feature. We had existing endpoints and it was an easy upgrade process. The interface board is also easy to use."
"The solution has all the standard features you would expect for endpoint protection."
"The solution has good threat intelligence features."
"The most valuable features of the solution are malware scanning and malware removal."
"The technical support services are good."
"The dashboard actually is good and it is simple."
"The endpoint protection and response that allows us to restore a machine back to a pre-infected state are the most valuable features."
"Ten times a day, improved signatures will be downloaded, so it is very up-to-date in terms of malware experience."
"We have seen a decrease of approximately ninety percent in the number of events."
"The most valuable features of Malwarebytes are the agents, user experience, efficiency of the findings, and MDR features."
"The product provides notifications for suspicious events. We have several public access points. The product helps to prevent unauthorized entry. Its most valuable features are pre-installation procedures and a cloud console. The console's interface is simple and can be viewed easily to take action. It covers everything in terms of security threats."
 

Cons

"The solution can be made lightweight in order to keep the systems more effective during the background operations of the scanning and security checks."
"The price of the product could be more friendly."
"As I understand there will be a URL filtering feature included with the browser agent in the future. This will allow URL filtering without the need for a Gateway Device. This is something I am looking forward to and would be a great addition to list of features."
"The solution has limitations if it's hosted on-prem or as a SaaS."
"The application control and URL filtering features are not very strong."
"Unfortunately, the web (cloud) management system and log search performance are quite bad."
"There are a number of features behind paywalls which can be frustrating when you are already paying a premium."
"It blocks safe URLs sometimes when there are network interruptions."
"It's not good in search hunting."
"Malwarebytes is not there in the reports from Gartner or IDC...If we look at the market trends and the industry, most customers look at Gartner's reports to identify whether a product is a leader, challenger, or a big product, depending on which they choose."
"The product has major problems in almost every facet of setup and use including setup, configuration, lack of functionality, lack of stability, false positives, questionable reporting, inability to protect from randsomeware and poor technical support and development."
"Notifications are lacking."
"Malwarebytes should improve its mobile compatibility."
"The free version is effective, however, the paid version is pricey compared to it."
"They should make it faster, less taxing on the processor."
"I would like to see a little more detail in the log. So, when an event occurs, I'd like to know not just when it happened and on what device, but what activity was taking place on the machine at the time so that we can drill down. If we get a false positive, we have to do a lot of research and go back and forth with our end-users to know why it was a false positive. So, having a little more detail around detections and events would probably be my most asked feature."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"There are three different licensing models including basic, advanced, and complete, and it needs to be selected according to the endpoint."
"Price-wise, the product is affordable. There are no additional costs apart from the licensing charges that are attached to the product."
"I rate Check Point Harmony Endpoint's pricing a seven out of ten because it is a little high."
"In comparison to other software solutions available on the market, it comes at a higher price point."
"I rate the product price a four on a scale of one to ten, where one is low, and ten is high."
"Check Point Harmony Endpoint's pricing is more competitive than any other vendor."
"The price of Check Point Harmony Endpoint is comparable to SonicWall. The price could be a bit lower."
"We pay roughly 80,000 Swedish krona per year. When it comes to the firewall, it's roughly 150,000 Swedish krona yearly. There's also maintenance, of course, which is roughly 10,000 krona per month."
"Malwarebytes is a cost-effective product."
"Its cost is around $60 a machine. The cost of the total solution for 250 people is about $8,500 a year. If we add EDR to it, it will bring that cost up to about $15,000. The cost for Carbon Black is about $25,000, which is $10,000 more, but you get all AI functions with it."
"We expect to pay $1,000 USD a month, depending on the number of users."
"The platform pricing is competitive with other antivirus products."
"Yearly, it is around $50 per client."
"I would say that it's affordable. It costs much less than Sentinel One, CrowdStrike, or anything of that nature. But, at the same time, you are getting what you pay for. So I would say it's one of the best when you're comparing traditional NextGen AVs like Webroot that aren't the best in the bunch."
"The cost may be something in the ballpark of $20-25 a year per computer."
"On a scale of one to ten, where one is a low price and ten is a high price, I rate the product's pricing a seven."
