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.

While being easy to manage and create reports, the tool also offers a good UI
I rate the ease of use and management of Panda Adaptive Defense 360 an eight on a scale of one to ten. The tool's ability to provide information about the vulnerability is the most impactful feature of the product that has an impact on our company's security posture. Speaking about scenarios where the solution effectively prevented the security breach, I would say that our company sees how the tool blocks when our customers accidentally click on some malware, after which it quarantines that file. My company makes a playbook with the SOAR tool that Panda Adaptive Defense 360 uses to block and isolate attacks. In our company's system, if there is a big event that occurs, then to block the endpoint, we use SOAR with Panda Adaptive Defense 360 to block and isolate attacks or threats. The solution's real-time monitoring has improved our company's ability to detect threats if we use it in our company with Panda SIEMFeeder. Only if in my company there is a need to do some research, prepare a report, or if we want to change the policy, so it is not very often that we use the visualization part of the tool in our company. The reporting and analytics part of the tool has helped with the decision-making in our company since we combine different kinds of logs and situations from different ingestion logs, and we can configure a specific alert. In my company, we use the tool's data search functionality if required to check the information we need. Presently, our company uses the configuration alert and SIEMFeeder in our system. I rate the tool a nine out of ten.

Quotes from Members

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

"The best thing is that it fits into all environments, which gives any organization a chance to use it intuitively without worrying about the nature of their industry."
"I use Check Point Harmony Endpoint because it is an easy solution to implement and a good solution overall."
"Check Point Harmony Endpoint has positively impacted our organization, and the ROI has been great."
"The main advantage of the solution is the ability to implement complete security policies for the terminals in order to address how apps are installed on corporate devices."
"Its ability to rollback anti-ransomware once an attack has started is the most valuable feature."
"Panda Security solution has a feature to block any unknown process and that is what is best about it."
"I like the Panda Security Adaptive Defense cloud usages. Everything is on a single plane of glass like the dashboards. I also like the information I can get about the computers itself."
"We have control over our devices, specifically USB ports, allowing us to block or control the traffic."
"I would give the overall solution a rating of ten out of ten."
"The most valuable features of the solution stem from the fact that I like the tool's UI, ease of management, ease of making reports, and the ability to export information easily."
"It is easy to manage."
"It is stable, and the performance is good."
"It's very easy to deploy, we don't have any problem or issues. It's most full automatic. It basically takes the assumption that everything is supposed to be a suspect; files, processes, URL accesses, and so on."
 

Cons

"The price of the product could be more friendly."
"They could improve memory consumption."
"Enhanced behavioral analytics would provide a deeper understanding of endpoint activities, fortifying our defenses against sophisticated cyber adversaries."
"They should provide bandwidth regulation, so we can monitor and regulate bandwidth."
"The Infinity Portal login is "iffy" at times."
"We need a higher maximum file size in the sandboxing feature."
"The solution could be improved in the future with a way to provide online training to customers for free, as other providers do."
"They should also add new functions such as threat hunting."
"They need to expand their offering of add-ons to enhance capabilities further."
"Panda Adaptive Defense 360 is not compatible with certain network devices like access points, switches, or routers, which would be an area for improvement."
"The implementation was difficult."
"The solution should have additional endpoint protection."
"Panda Security Adaptive Defense is stable. However, when updates are being done on the computers we can experience some troubles because the computers need to be restarted. When we start the computers they are not functioning correctly and we have not received proper feedback regarding this random issue."
"t would help if it would monitor the network better."
"We do get the odd false positive when we're trying to install the software."
"For some urgent updates, I don't like the need for the tool to be frequently restarted."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"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 cost is huge compared to other products that are available on market."
"Licensing comes free in that first year or is included in the base package. From a commercial point of view, it really just is the renewal cost, rather than a one-time fixed cost or buy-in."
"The solution is reasonable, but there are cheaper solutions out there."
"In comparison to other software solutions available on the market, it comes at a higher price point."
"I bought them for 12 months and I genuinely cannot remember what I paid for them. I think it's about 100 pounds per user per year, so about 10 pounds a month per person."
"Check Point Harmony Endpoint's pricing is more competitive than any other vendor."
"I rate the product price a four on a scale of one to ten, where one is low, and ten is high."
"Our licensing fee is 1M Euro per month, so it is about 80 Euro's per user."
"Customers need to pay monthly licensing costs for Panda Security Adaptive Defense, which is not expensive."
"There is a license needed to use this solution and it is approximately $30 annually."
"The solution is priced well for what features it provides."
"The price of this solution depends on the number of licenses that you are purchasing."
"I don't think Panda's license is too expensive, but they're charging more than it's worth. It's a yearly license. For 1,000 endpoints, it's around $18,000."
"Panda is cloud-only and comes at a reasonable cost. It is a set price per seat."
"The licensing costs are not too high. We pay about 20 Euros a year. It's a reasonable amount to pay."
