Nasseer Qureshi - PeerSpot reviewer
Ensuring remote work security with effective protection for Mobile device access
Check point harmony mobile is strong but could improve in reducing alert fatigue, sometimes we get too many notification which can overwhelm users and IT staff. Making alerts smarter or more customizable would help focus attention on the most critical threats. Also enhanced reporting with more detailed insights and easier integration with other security tools would be great. In the future versions adding AI-driven threat prediction and automated remediation could take the solution to the next level.

A market leader that integrates nicely with other McAfee security products and is quite stable
We are just customers and end-users. We are using the most up-to-date version available at this time. I'd advise potential new users that the key thing is to clearly understand what your requirements are and what your use cases are, and both your business requirements, your technical requirements, and your regulatory requirements. It's important to understand all of those. A company needs to clearly understand all the use cases it needs to manage and make sure they do the appropriate due diligence to find a product that can achieve all those requirements and handle all those use cases. It was an extensive process for us. We did about four to six months of paper-based due diligence - not even a field trial - to make that we were picking the right product. We leveraged a lot of outside vendor-neutral sources like Gartner. So far, I'd rate the solution at 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:
 

Pros

"I really like the application scanning feature that scans all of the installed applications, and not only what appears in the add or remove apps, and then reports the results in the console."
"Check Point Harmony Mobile has significantly improved our mobile security posture."
"It has been a reliable solution for our organization, significantly improving our mobile device security without excessive maintenance requirements."
"Management can see all devices on one panel and easily highlight any devices under threat."
"The most valuable features of this solution are the filtering, interface configuration, and threat management."
"I really like the application scanning portion where it scans your current applications and any new applications that you add to the device to let you know if it is malicious."
"As a security solution for devices, it can benefit us in many ways, including providing us with data security, access control, network security, and more."
"The simple navigation offered by the graphical user interface is excellent."
"The product is one of the market leaders, according to Gartner, on mobile protection."
 

Cons

"Check Point Harmony Mobile is strong but could improve in reducing alert fatigue, sometimes we get too many notifications which can overwhelm users and IT staff."
"There are certain shortcomings in the integration capabilities that a product offers."
"If possible, it would be better if they can include vulnerability management for applications. When a user installs many applications, if there is a way to manage a pack of applications, it would be helpful."
"There could be more automation features for the solution."
"The ability to integrate local and cloud technologies to create a hybrid scenario would be an upgrade."
"For SandBlast Mobile, the only thing that is lacking is that it wasn't available for all types of users. However, Check Point has since fixed this, with ZoneAlarm."
"While it's great, there's always room for improvement. Adding capabilities for automatic deployment in an enterprise environment would be useful."
"The one area where Check Point Harmony Mobile can be improved is cost-wise because compared to other vendors, the cost is a little bit higher."
"The one thing that I know that they're working on, that's not quite there in the product, is the artificial intelligence aspect."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Pricing is a little high."
"We pay between 300 and 600 Rupees per year, around seven dollars per month."
"Check Point provides a separate license in cases where organizations want to use this only on mobile devices, or laptops/desktops."
"Check Point Harmony Mobile's pricing is good."
"The cost is huge compared to other products, and it seems this solution is only for companies with a large budget."
"We didn't actually purchase the software. It was given to us by Check Point. We are using it as a test bed for possible future customers."
"Regarding the cost of licenses, each device consumes one, even if it has both professional and personal profiles."
"Users have to pay a yearly licensing fee for each device, which is cheap."
