Remote Access Security Reinforced with Real-Time Device Protection
Dashboard customization is needed for improvements. While the centralized management is strong, the dashboard could offer more flexibility. It would be helpful to tailor views for different roles, such as IT or security support. Regarding needed improvements, custom report building could be enhanced. Current reports are informative, and a drag-and-drop builder would allow teams to create tailored views for compliance, executive summaries, or operational metrics. For further improvements, enhancing threat simulation and testing would be valuable. Building a threat simulation tool and adding native capabilities to simulate phishing, malware, or ransomware scenarios will help teams validate protection and train users without relying on third-party tools.

User-friendly solution with good blocking
I mainly use Security Premium as an antivirus.  Security Premium's best features are blocking, notifications, and the user interface. Security Premium's cost could be lower. I've been using Security Premium for a year. Security Premium is stable - I haven't faced any issues or bugs while using…

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"I strongly recommend this solution to all IT businesses and professionals."
"It has improved the detection of malware."
"We now have so many capabilities we did not have before, as follows: We are able to manage all our endpoints from a single cloud console."
"The graphical interface is very easy to use and intuitive, which greatly facilitates the work and greatly facilitates the work and the location of threats on the users' computers."
"Check Point Harmony Endpoint has one of the most user-friendly dashboards I've seen."
"Heuristic detection scans for suspicious characteristics that can be found in unknown, new viruses and modified versions of known viruses."
"The most valuable feature of this solution is the VPN."
"Check Point Antivirus is capable of scanning files uploaded from the internet or running through the network via Check Point gateways/clusters."
"We like how it can check for issues. That includes files and web browsers."
"We tried a few: Kaspersky, Trend Micro, we used McAfee, we used Norton; we tried them all on our entire fleet of computers, and we realized that in terms of ease of use and resource consumption, Norton is something that is acceptable to us."
"The product is called Norton 360 all-in-one. It is a full product."
"In general, technical support has been helpful."
"The internet security was a plus, and it's pretty good."
"It does not take many resources during scanning."
"The dashboard is good."
"The most valuable feature is the multifunctional protection."
 

Cons

"If you're using an endpoint that does not have sufficient resources, it would be very tough to use."
"It's not easy to investigate an incident that you find in the company. Users often face trouble when downloading files, so it is very slow in terms of how it works."
"I would like to see them implement a system that would enable us to do certain things from our mobile like applying policies, opening up and blocking ports, and restricting connection. It is because IT personnel are not always around on the premises. We can instantly do these things from our mobile. They should also consider the price so that many people will go for the solution."
"The antivirus is not as friendly as other solutions and can be improved."
"It is very difficult to get ahead of what's coming in terms of new threats, however, I think that Check Point Antivirus must improve against zero-day attacks."
"Dashboard customization is needed for improvements. While the centralized management is strong, the dashboard could offer more flexibility."
"It took me time to learn how to configure endpoint security."
"They should also add new functions such as threat hunting."
"As far as improvement to the product, perhaps the price could be better."
"The only problem with Norton Antivirus is that it consumes a lot of resources like CPU and memory in the background. Whenever it's scanning, my laptop becomes very slow, and the worst part is you cannot do anything about it. As this product is secured by my local IT team, you cannot even kill that process, and that's what I've felt about many other antivirus solutions. I'm using McAfee for personal use, and I have the same problem."
"The product is an antivirus, it should be updated automatically when needed."
"Security Premium's cost could be lower."
"It would be helpful for me if this solution works on our cloud backup data."
"They say Norton Security Premium is an all-in-one solution, but we don't know exactly what's in it, e.g. they didn't make an effort to explain the difference between a virus scan and a ransomware scan."
"Having a dashboard that shows the different functions of Norton Security Premium can convince end users that the software is more than just an antivirus solution. This product offers several features, but end users think that it's just one out of the box solution, because the different functions are not explained in detail."
"I don't like the password manager of Norton Security Premium. I really dislike it."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"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."
"The pricing is reasonable."
"The pricing is very expensive. You need to buy the appliance and subscription as well."
"Initial monies replacing all AVs with a single product is about £10k."
"One of the key factors that made us go with this solution was the pricing. On the licensing part, there was an initial complementary set of licenses offered in the initial onboarding package, either 15 or 20. Then, we had some complementary licenses in the initial purchase of the package. That was pretty useful."
"The tool’s cost has increased by almost 300% in two years."
"Check Point Antivirus is an expensive solution, especially for clients that don't have as many endpoints. Check Point Antivirus has a free trial for one month, and within the trial period, there's no limit to the number of endpoints it can support, but when the trial expires, you'll have to buy the license, which covers one year. You can't buy a license for the solution without being a Check Point partner first."
"Check Point Antivirus is the most economical solution."
"The licensing fee for this solution is not expensive."
"Security Premium costs around US$100 for three years, which is a little expensive."
"As I have been a long-time customer, I was given a fair price of $49.95 per month for the first four to six months."
"Pricing for this software is competitive."
"The solution gives the value for the money."
"I don't pay for a license."
"Security Premium is highly-priced."
"We have a yearly license, and each license is around 20 or 30 Jordanian Dinars plus taxes."
