"The security is its most valuable feature."
"It's great for securing our endpoints from any external attacks."
"The most valuable feature of Check Point Harmony Endpoint is centralized management."
"We were under an attack in our environment, and the Check Point response was good because we didn't lose anything."

"We've contacted technical support several times. They've been very good. They have been able to help us resolve our issues."
"It is very easy to use, and its usability is great. The use cases are also very easy. The visualizations of the use cases are magnificent. You cannot find this in any other solution. From my point of view, it is great."
"Ability to isolate the machine when there are malicious files."
"It is stable. We have been using it for some time, without any issues."
"This solution allows us to locate the malware in real-time."
"It helps our security team respond more accurately when there are threats, then we get less false positives or negatives."
"It's a scalable solution. We have around five to eight customers using RSA NetWitness Endpoint, and we hope to increase the number of users."
"Integration with Azure and SaaS provisioning tools could improve Fortinet FortiEDR."
"There's room for improvement in the quick response time and technical support for integration issues, especially when dealing with multiple vendors."
"We find the solution to be a bit expensive."
"I would like the solution to extend beyond endpoint protection and include other attack surfaces such as other network components."
"Making the portal mobile friendly would be helpful when I am out of office."
"They can include the automation for the realtime updates. We have a network infrastructure with remote sites. Whenever they send updates, they are not automated. We have to go into the console and push those updates. I wish it was more automated. The update file is currently around 31 MB. It could be smaller."
"I haven't seen the use of AI in the solution."
"Everything with Fortinet having to do with their cloud services. They need to invest more in their internal infrastructure that they are running in the cloud. One of the things I find with their cloud environment compared to others' is that they go cheap on the equipment. So it causes some performance degradation."
"It blocks safe URLs sometimes when there are network interruptions."
"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 more automation."
"SandBlast Agent had moments in which it had a high load, we escalated it to the CheckPoint support that helped us to stabilize it. We had a problem with the parameterization of the solution. Once corrected by following the CheckPoint instructions, everything worked normally again."
"As of now, product-wise, we haven't found any major concern that needs to improve, although it does not support full MDM and this is something that should be there."
"The only thing that our customers want, is lower prices."
"There was a learning curve for our general population of employees (the user)."
"Check Point Harmony is definitely pricier compared to other endpoints."
"The solution is modular, for example you can buy the RSA ePack, which you buy as a module is not part of the conduit solution. They could include it and have it as an all-in-one solution."
"RSA NetWitness Network could improve on integration with non-native application integration."
"The deployment process is complex. I don't know why, but this solution will suddenly stop working. Logs stop coming. Often, one thing or another stops working. Most of the time, one of my team members is working with troubleshooting and working with technical support. Log passing is also one of the biggest challenge."
"This solution needs an upgrade in reporting. I have heard from RSA that they are working on this, but as of yet it is not available."
"The threat intelligence could improve in RSA NetWitness Endpoint."
"The contamination feature could be improved."
"Threat detection could be better."
"NetWitness Endpoint's blocking feature does not work properly - if there's a malicious process, it's not possible to kill it via a custom rule unless and until it's flagged as malicious."
