Unified across devices and mobile threats are automatically blocked before damage occurs
The best feature of Check Point Harmony Mobile is the Mobile Threat Defense because it detects and blocks phishing attempts, malicious apps, man-in-the-middle attacks, and device exploits, which is especially critical in BYOD and remote work environments. The Mobile Threat Defense feature in Check Point Harmony Mobile has been very effective, especially in catching threats that target employees outside of traditional email channels. For example, there was a smishing attempt where a user received a text message with links disguised as package delivery updates. Check Point Harmony Mobile analyzed the link in real-time, flagged it as malicious, and blocked access before anyone could enter credentials, which prevented what could have been a widespread credential harvesting attack. Device Management and Remote Work Support are two additional aspects of Check Point Harmony Mobile that are especially valued. Device Management continuously checks device posture, including things like OS version, patch level, and whether a device is jailbroken or rooted. Remote Work Support allows employees to securely access email, collaboration tools, and files from anywhere without worrying about phishing links, malicious apps, and unsafe Wi-Fi networks. Check Point Harmony Mobile has positively impacted the organization, especially with phishing protections, as SMS or messaging-based phishing attempts are now blocked before users can click, preventing credential theft. Measurable outcomes since deploying Check Point Harmony Mobile highlight its impact on both security and compliance. Mobile-related security incidents have dropped by approximately 40 to 50 percent compared to before deployment.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The blade is easy to enable and configure, and it provides great benefits with the help of the built-in SSL VPN Portal."
"We've found that the product is quite stable."
"It also enables us to see where privacy is a concern, apps that are leaking privacy. Having an idea as to how these apps are being protected offers some level of security to the device and back into our corporate network."
"We like the URL content filtering, that is one of the most valuable features."
"The ease of use, along with comprehensive protection for all devices, is a key advantage. It provides visibility into malicious applications installed on the phone."
"It has provided us with an easy-to-use solution that protects our corporate data on all our iPhone mobile devices."
"Harmony Mobile is a unified security solution for user devices and internet connections. It protects devices from sophisticated attacks, including malware, and implements Zero Trust Access for comprehensive security."
"Check Point Harmony Mobile has significantly strengthened the mobile security posture, especially as more employees rely on smartphones or tablets for work."
"The biggest advantage it has is the VPN product that is incorporated into the solution."
"Your endpoint protection depends on the signature piece, so it's mainly for virus and malware protection, as well as also to control devices and applications."
"The solution has a lot of extremely useful features, is reliable and makes search engines more powerful, and the user interface, managing, and monitoring tools are also good."
"There is no issue with the stability of Endpoint."
"One of the features I found very nice in Symantec Endpoint Protection Mobile is that it's good at scanning and fixing issues on its own."
"The most valuable feature is to be able to power up a device and wipe the data remotely."
"Symantec Endpoint Protection Mobile is very easy to deploy, and it is really easy to set up the policies."
"The patch management alerts are the most valuable, and whenever they have one, I get a notification and can then handle the upgrades or updates."
 

Cons

"The solution should improve passive scanning and provide regular updates. Also, during business hours, users should not experience any slowdown on their devices."
"While Check Point Harmony Mobile is a strong solution, there are a few areas where improvement could make it even more effective and user-friendly, such as more granular policy controls."
"The feature set between the Android and Apple devices is not fully equal."
"From a user's perspective, of course, it is always better when it is cheaper in price."
"At times, when configuring policies, the tool takes some time to apply the policy."
"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."
"Compatibility with other Mobile Device Management (MDM) products on the market should be improved, ensuring correct operation between SandBlast Mobile and MDM."
"Also, we found configuring device groups & mapping a policy is quite confusing. There should be a simpler interface."
"The price is too expensive for the Egyptian market here. Compared to other products or the other competition here in the local market, they need to be more competitive cost-wise."
"It would be nice to have more flexibility regarding deployment."
"Application and device control needs to be improved. We also need to enhance login features for management to have good visibility of the events."
"I'm not sure if there's anything lacking; I personally don't use the solution too much, so I'd have to look at it a bit and do some more research. I'm more on the operation side of things."
"A lot of the problems my team has been having from Symantec Endpoint Protection Mobile were associated with Outlook for endpoint users who were being locked out of the Outlook application."
"Having better, real-time support would be an improvement over having to send an email."
"Application and device control needs to be improved."
"The product price is too expensive relative to the Egyptian market here."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Check Point Harmony Mobile's pricing is good."
"Pricing is a little high."
"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."
"The price is okay. Per user, it should be something like five or ten dollars. But, we usually get discounts that drive the cost down."
"When I purchased the product for one of our company's clients, I realized that the price of the product was competitive."
"The product pricing is reasonable for the security it provides."
"I rate the tool's pricing a three out of ten."
"Check Point pricing is better than Symantec."
"You get the solution for free if you purchase the complete endpoint security licensing."
