Featured Reviews

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.
Carlos Snel - PeerSpot reviewer
Allows our IT department to easily analyze any connection issues
There is room for improvement regarding the price of Zscaler Client Connector, as it is one of the most expensive solutions available. Additionally, more data centers are required globally to reduce latency, especially in areas like South America and Africa, though this does not directly relate to the Client Connector.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Compared to its competitors, Check Point Harmony Endpoint has advantages in areas like EDR and behavioral detection."
"One of the characteristics of this antivirus that is valuable is the detection of ransomware."
"Check Point detects files containing malware, which some users are trying to download or access. Additionally, it can consolidate multiple emails into one."
"New viruses emerge day after day, and this EDR system helps action be taken before viruses affect the internal system."
"It has blocked many malware attacks aiming to corrupt and damage company data."
"It prevents the most imminent threats to the endpoint such as ransomware, phishing or drive-by malware, while quickly minimizing breach impact with autonomous detection and response."
"A unique feature with this product is that it will detect if the user is entering their password on a website, and then block it."
"The communication with the console is very dynamic and remote, without the need to return to the computer locally."
"Zscaler Client Connector is quite scalable, and I would rate its scalability as nine or ten out of ten."
"The solution operates in the background seamlessly without the user noticing."
"I'd rate the solution nine out of ten."
 

Cons

"They must focus on performance and efficiency since this tool sometimes consumes many machine resources and leads to machine performance problems."
"Technical support can be a bit slow at times."
"More posting of user feedback is requested across all websites and Google so that more traction can be attained. Seeing reviews helps create more confidence with clients and partners."
"Sometimes, the Cloud Management Portal can become unresponsive or take a long time to process a query. This in turn will cause the browser to freeze, which will require closing and reopening of your browser."
"Sometimes the Check Point Harmony Endpoint performance slows down when we use scanning and update sessions."
"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."
"The next release can focus more on timely upgrades to enhance computing compatibility."
"The next release should consider a strong threat detection mechanism that can categorize various levels of attacks for faster analysis."
"There is room for improvement regarding the price of Zscaler Client Connector, as it is one of the most expensive solutions available."
"There is room for improvement regarding the price of Zscaler Client Connector, as it is one of the most expensive solutions available."
"The stability of Zscaler Client Connector needs improvement, as it often disconnects and reconnects."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"I rate the solution's pricing a five out of ten. It costs around ₱2,200 per endpoint."
"The price of Check Point Harmony Endpoint is comparable to SonicWall. The price could be a bit lower."
"The tool’s cost has increased by almost 300% in two years."
"Check Point Antivirus is a good solution, but it's a little costly."
"The product is averagely priced. The product price is neither very high nor too low. The tool is not really expensive."
"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."
"In comparison to other software solutions available on the market, it comes at a higher price point."
"The price is good."
