Nasseer Qureshi - PeerSpot reviewer
Delivers seamless and secure remote access while enhancing security posture
Check Point Harmony SASE (formerly Perimeter 81) offers strong features, but there are areas that could be improved. One area for improvement is integration with third-party identity providers. It works with standard SAML and SSO, but we would prefer deeper integrations with solutions such as Ping for more advanced identity-based policies. Additionally, a mobile-specific client or lightweight agent would be helpful for securing access from smartphones, especially in BYOD environments. We would appreciate more granular reporting and analytics, including better drill-down capabilities to investigate specific users or app activity. The logs are comprehensive, but filtering them can sometimes feel messy. The user interface on the management portal could be more intuitive, especially when managing multiple sites or remote offices. Some of the policy configuration steps are nested and could be streamlined.

Useful quarantining features but can be tedious to configure
I use SPAMfighter to monitor and quarantine any abnormal emails and to maintain a whitelist and blacklist SPAMfighter's best features are the specific quarantine and the website where you can release your spam whitelisting and blacklisting. SPAMfighter is a little tedious to configure and…

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Even after restarting, it tries to quickly reestablish connection which is very helpful."
"I find it very easy to implement and deploy in the organization."
"The benefits are really built into the underlying protocol, however, Perimeter81 makes these available in a user-friendly way."
"Its software solution also ensures connectivity and protects against NSF filtering."
"Protection against threats like ransomware is very effective."
"The solution offers ATP features and management features."
"The solution provides high performance along with ATP prevention, policy management, remote activity, and IoT support."
"The product’s ability to block phishing sites is valuable."
"SPAMfighter's best features are the specific quarantine and the website where you can release your spam whitelisting and blacklisting."
 

Cons

"Sometimes downloading PDF files can be slow."
"The complex initial setup phase of the product is an area that can be improved"
"My customers want more remote functionality. They need another routing option after they connect to the enterprise intranet. For example, let's say a user tries to connect to a remote branch office and headquarters through Harmony Connect. They need a local breakout after connecting to the headquarters, especially in China. They need to put local breakout in the Chinese internet. The current version cannot do something like this."
"The solution requires you to buy a minimum of 50 licenses and that is not practical."
"What would be useful would be a notification/warning that a session is due to timeout after exceeding the default connection limit."
"Although the interface is user-friendly, further simplification and customization options tailored for non-technical users would benefit smaller firms without dedicated IT teams. Intuitive dashboards and guided setups can help in reducing the learning curve."
"I'd love to learn more about all of the features. Maybe a monthly spotlight of features or having a banner that explains more ways certain features could be used would be helpful."
"The support is not very good."
"SPAMfighter is a little tedious to configure and requires some technical knowledge to understand it."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Regarding pricing, I can say that the more the number of users, the less they have to pay."
"The product is neither cheap nor expensive."
"The pricing of Check Point is relatively high when compared to other competitors like Palo Alto and Fortinet. While Palo Alto may be on the higher side in terms of cost, Check Point's pricing is similar to that of Fortinet. In some cases, Check Point offers better value for the features it provides. We initially considered other options but ultimately decided to purchase hardware that came with three years of iOS. This approach eliminated the need for any additional costs associated with Check Point. I would rate it 10 out of 10."
"I consider the product to be a medium-priced solution. There are no additional costs attached to the tool."
"The product is reasonably priced."
"Overall I am very happy with the solution’s flexibility and pricing."
"Annual licenses cost $30 to $40 each."
"The solution is priced appropriately considering its uses. For an essential license, a user pays only 30 USD per month. For an enterprise version, the prices can be negotiated with the company."
"SPAMfighter has yearly maintenance prices."
