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

"Harmony Mobile's most valuable feature is the variety of capabilities in the platform, including allowing you to track device status."
"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."
"You can block infected devices from accessing corporate data."
"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."
"It has been a reliable solution for our organization, significantly improving our mobile device security without excessive maintenance requirements."
"The product's VPN solution is super efficient, and our clients highly value ransomware protection on mobile. These two features are probably the most valuable aspects of this product. Check Point Harmony Mobile responds very fast to any cybersecurity attack. With that product, your mobile response is super fast."
"The easy deployment is the key for us. I can simply send a link through email to a user, then they install the software and are protected."
"It doesn't allow you to activate some of the applications until your mobile is malware free. That way we come to know that the device secure and only then do we deploy the business application."
"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."
"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."
"The user interface is good. Managing and monitoring tools are also good."
"Integration is good. You can integrate them with an off-brand endpoint solution. It has quite a few integration features you can use."
"The biggest advantage it has is the VPN product that is incorporated into the solution."
"Symantec Endpoint Protection Mobile is very easy to deploy, and it is really easy to set up the policies."
"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."
"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."
 

Cons

"Compatibility with other Mobile Device Management (MDM) products on the market should be improved, ensuring correct operation between SandBlast Mobile and MDM."
"There could be more automation features for the solution."
"Some configuration options inside the management console are a little confusing because the interface is not always user-friendly."
"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 product needs to improve its user awareness."
"Integration needs improvement. We use Check Point for email. We use Check Point Capsule Workspace and I wish that it tied into that better and was integrated with their email application so that when it's secure, then they're able to access their email and it could be deployed as one group instead of two separate applications. It's a little bit more work for us to deploy both of those so it'd be nice if they could be integrated."
"Support for Check Point Harmony Mobile is only available in English, which is limiting. Support in other languages, such as Spanish, would be preferred."
"The errors should be more visible to admin users."
"Having better, real-time support would be an improvement over having to send an email."
"When there is an attack attempt on mobile, there doesn't seem to be much of a notification."
"The product price is too expensive relative to the Egyptian market here."
"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."
"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."
"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."
"It would be nice to have more flexibility regarding deployment."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"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."
"Pricing is a little high."
"We pay between 300 and 600 Rupees per year, around seven dollars per month."
"There is a need to make yearly payments towards the licensing costs attached to the product. You can opt for a one-year, three-year, or five-year license."
"Its cost depends upon the number of users."
"The price is not so high. I would rate the pricing a three or four out of ten."
"Users have to pay a yearly licensing fee for each device, which is cheap."
"Regarding the cost of licenses, each device consumes one, even if it has both professional and personal profiles."
"You get the solution for free if you purchase the complete endpoint security licensing."
