Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"The initial implementation was accomplished easily and without deployment problems.""Infinity has come to give us total protection.""The product's excellent scalability features have allowed our organization to seamlessly adapt to the growing demand. The consensus mechanism and smart contract capabilities have optimized our workflow, resulting in an overall reduction in the complexity of our organization.""The most valuable features of the solution stem from factors like ease of use, visibility, and cost to the enterprise.""It provides fantastic visibility of security incidents through deconstructing and dissecting the threat's infection protocol.""The sandblast threat emulation is great.""It has come to reinforce the security architecture of the organization since it covers all the necessary pieces of security.""New Check Point technologies can be found via this portal."

"It can scale from 100 to 10,000. There's no problem with the scalability.""Some of the features that are highly appreciated are its robust data loss prevention capabilities, flexible deployment options, and the ability to monitor data transfer across multiple vectors.""The technical support is really terrific.""It has the added advantage of offering forensic analysis.""We have been able to monitor access to files from each of our workstations.""There is a built-in endpoint detection response that helps save money.""It has been scalable.""The feature we call desktop recording is the most valuable aspect of the solution. Not only can we collect data from the user's usage, but we also capture his screenshots when he is trying to steal the data."

Cons
"I think that the pricing for the Check Point products should be reconsidered, as we found it to be quite expensive to purchase and to maintain.""The endpoint solutions offered by Check Point are not prominent enough in the market due to Check Point's poor marketing efforts.""The portal is provisioned in AWS. They should improve the cloud to make it faster.""We'd like to see support for fiber connections.""In the future, I would like to see new developments that allow us to centralize the cloud.""The management console has given us some trouble, and the documentation is a little bit rigid in its solution paths.""Technical support is something that needs improvement.""It seems that the performance varies, likely influenced by the client's size and the provisioning of resources."

More Check Point Infinity Cons →

"Technical support could be better.""The room for improvement with Digital Guardian is that it will be better with the Linux agent because it is the only DLP solution for Linux workstations. It still needs to upgrade the agents to the latest version for the Linux kernel.""When considering potential areas for improvement, it may be beneficial for Digital Guardian to optimize its processes and reduce the computational demands on the system, particularly with regard to high CPU usage. Although Digital Guardian offers numerous benefits, it can consume a substantial amount of RAM and CPU power.""I would like to see the workflow, to get all the rules and policies set up, be less complicated.""There are a lot of issues with the current version of the Endpoint agent. It's not stable, it's resource-consuming, and there are some performance issues. If they could improve the stability of the agent it would be great.""The initial setup is a bit more complex than other solutions.""Some features on Mac and Linux are not complete currently. For example, some device control features haven't been transferred over to the other systems. If they could have their Windows features also available on Mac and Linux, that would be perfect. Some of our customers have a Mac environment for their RD environment. Having the solution fully capable of handling everything in a Mac environment is crucial.""The solution has complexities around policy creation and deployment."

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "Choosing the correct set of licenses is essential because, without the additional software blade licenses, the Check Point gateways are just a stateful firewall."
  • "Check Point should provide an enterprise-wide license where the organization should be provided free hand of using any license or services for an agreed period of time (EULA)."
  • "The pricing of Check Point Infinity could be better. There is a license needed to use the solution and we pay annually."
  • "The product has good pricing considering the features and a global approach."
  • "I rate the product's price a six on a scale of one to ten, where one is cheap, and ten is expensive."
  • "The flexibility in pricing is advantageous, and being a special partner allows for negotiating special rates based on the project requirements."
  • "While the initial payment might be perceived as relatively higher, the absence of hidden supplementing charges contributes to a straightforward and clear pricing model. The pricing is cheap and moderate."
  • "When it comes to price, the paramount consideration is the strength of the security. If the security measures provided by the product, such as Check Point Infinity, are robust and meet our requirements, price becomes a secondary concern."
  • More Check Point Infinity Pricing and Cost Advice →

  • "Digital Guardian has both, subscription and perpetual licenses, but I think when everything (all technologies) will go to the cloud they will only offer subscriptions."
  • "If I compare Digital Guardian with Symantec, the license cost is lower, but McAfee can be cheaper than Digital Guardian. It depends on how many licenses you plan to buy and how big the project is. The cost is not so high as Symantec, but not as cheap as McAfee. They can easily sell the solution for price."
  • "The price of Digital Guardian is expensive."
  • "The cost was around $300,000."
  • "The price of Digital Guardian is on the higher end compared to other vendors."
  • "I rate the solution's pricing an eight out of ten because Digital Guardian is expensive."
