Find out what your peers are saying about Check Point Software Technologies, Lookout, Zimperium and others in Mobile Threat Defense."I would rate the stability a ten out of ten."
"It has been very easy to implement and deploy."
"The usability is the most valuable feature. It's really easy to use. It's a durable solution. I don't have any breaches. It is a good solution from that angle."
"The anti-phishing and scanning of SMS are the most valuable aspects of the solution. Sometimes we will get some SMS and they will try to redirect you to malicious links. If you have SandBlast Mobile, it helps you prevent clicking on those malicious links."
"First, the granular visibility of apps & traffic which we get through Check Point SandBlast Mobile are good. We can see each & every installed app & information for each app about severity & risk."
"The best thing about the product is that it is transparent and does not impact the users."
"The solution is very user-friendly."
"The solution has clients for both Android and Apple devices, so all of our employees' devices are protected."
"The tool is easy to configure and use. We integrated it with Active Directory to manage user authentication. It's intuitive and transparent, making it simple for users to use. It connects automatically to the VPN whenever users turn on the laptop. The product is efficient and offers centralized control."
"The solution offers great security features, including zero-day protection, malware protection, anti-phishing, et cetera."
"The ability to create your trigger data domains is the solution's most valuable feature."
"Technical support has been excellent."
"It keeps us safe when browsing the internet and when sharing confidential information with our colleagues."
"Our number of users working remotely vastly increased during the COVID 19 pandemic. Check Point Remote Access VPN allowed us to quickly make the transition from in-office to remote work."
"One of the most outstanding features is the ability to deliver third-party services and achieve double authenticity with integrated identities."
"The solution implemented in the cloud allows us to easily scale in cases of user increase."
"Compatibility with other Mobile Device Management (MDM) products on the market should be improved, ensuring correct operation between SandBlast Mobile and MDM."
"It does the process in the background and it does a wonderful job but the methodologies don't pop up. They should make it more interactive."
"The product needs to improve its user awareness."
"We don't have Google MDM being supported by the solution as of yet. It is a feature requirement... They are aware that it is something that I need. My objective is to be able to have the MDM integration and to have some level of control over the asset itself."
"The deployment in the Android system is very simple but in the case of iOS, it is more complicated so the users require attention from our CAU."
"I would like to see management and remote administration functions in the same portal."
"One of the improvements that can be made is that they become compatible with Google MDM."
"At times, when configuring policies, the tool takes some time to apply the policy."
"Sometimes it causes the consumption of machine resources, and also improves the scanning since they consume many resources in the clients' machines."
"Generally, the license is included with the Check Point gateway licensing, however, in terms of the number of users that can be activated for use, it is generally five users."
"Improved scalability would allow the solution to handle larger numbers of users and devices without a significant impact on performance."
"You have no ability to reserve a total number of licenses. The VPN user licenses are assigned per gateway, and if you enable MEP function is not so easy to size the gateway licenses."
"We would like to implement HTML5 (clientless access) in the product without installing any additional software."
"When you want to deploy a new Check Point agent, it is really a pain in the butt. For example, Windows 10 now has updates almost every couple of months. It changes the versioning and things under the hood. These are things that I don't understand, because I'm not a Windows person. However, I know that the Check Point client is installed on the Windows machine, and if the Check Point client's not kept up-to-date, then it's functionality breaks. It has to be up-to-date with the Windows versions. Check Point has to update the client more often. Now, the problem is that the Check Point client is not easy to update on remote computers and it's not easy to deploy a new client."
"A characteristic to improve is the communication service under the SMTP scheme."
"There is always room for innovation and the addition of new features."
