We performed a comparison between Check Point Quantum SASE and VMware SD-WAN based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Secure Access Service Edge (SASE) solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The most valuable features are the antivirus as a whole, the anti-malware, and all of the protection features that scan our enterprise devices."
"The solution is stable."
"On the outside, the main differentiation is because Lookout ingest. They have ingested basically all of the apps for the last ten years and all the versions of all the apps, and we have that in a corporate database that allows us to do very large-scale machine learning and analysis on that data set. That's not something that any of the competitors really have the capability to do because they don't have access to the data set. A lot of the apps you can no longer get them because that version of the app is five or six years old, and it just doesn't exist anywhere anymore, except within our infrastructure. So, the ability to have that very rich dataset and learn from that dataset is a real differentiator."
"The protection offered by the product is the most valuable feature. It detects vulnerabilities or traps on our users' phones and then prompts them to clean up their devices. Tools we used previously would only discover, which required us to gather information on the backend, so Lookout is a welcome upgrade."
"The tool's implementation marks a significant step forward among our enterprise clients, showcasing our commitment to staying ahead in the rapidly evolving landscape of blockchain technology. The robust security measures implemented not only protect the integrity of financial transactions but also contribute to maintaining the trust and credibility of our clientele."
"The product’s ability to block phishing sites is valuable."
"It's improved the security of every single OS in the organization as well as the visibility and security capabilities."
"The application control and granular access feature are very easy to use, intuitive, and effective."
"What I like about Harmony Connect is that every packet through the network is screened and filtered so that only clean packets can enter the PC. This is useful for a variety of security reasons because you no longer need to worry about things like DDoS attacks."
"The solution provides high performance along with ATP prevention, policy management, remote activity, and IoT support."
"Review of exported and imported packages and protection and content filtering have been useful."
"I find it very easy to implement and deploy in the organization."
"When extra capacity is needed, we can get it very quickly."
"If one circuit crashes, we are able to switch to a second circuit without any disruption in connection."
"When we upgrade to one of the edges, it goes very smoothly."
"I would absolutely recommend VeloCloud because it's user-friendly and because the integration is easier than with other solutions."
"Anyone can migrate over to VeloCloud, it's that simple, just plug in the necessary cables and it's done."
"VMware is the only SD-WAN solution that integrates with Azure Virtual WAN."
"This solution is as stable as most firewalls. VMware is a reputable vendor."
"I love the solution because of its many features like cluster and cloud VPN."
"From the analysis that we've done, they do seem to be maybe a step behind in trying to enter the market with a new solution. But when they do pick up, they do come out with some good products."
"The stability depends on the service from where you access it. Because sometimes, the place you are in, you have Gateway. You don't have Gateway. The gateway is overutilized. At the end, you need to go through their gateways. And this is the key point here. You have a tracking point. If it's not well orchestrated, and it scales up as you add more to the existing team, you will suffer"
"We just submitted an enhancement request reflecting the main area we want to see improvement in; the APIs. Currently, we're able to build dashboards, but it's somewhat backward because we use our MDM API to create them. Lookout should provide API to customers so we can query our data and use it in our cloud, and this is the only outstanding area for improvement with the product right now."
"Lookout was moving into the SSE space. And so their work on SecureWeb Gateway and SD-WAN is still sort of evolving."
"While the product has been instrumental in enhancing security, continuous improvement is essential. Feedback from users and ongoing technological advancements should guide the refinement of these security measures."
"Providing USB control in a Linux environment will give more control over data security."
"An improvement could be made in terms of achieving better coverage in such complicated regions as the Asia Pacific, China, and Russia."
"In order to be able to invite users, send the agent and implement it, the user input must be generated manually."
"Sometimes downloading PDF files can be slow."
"More report and alert options would be useful."
"Support is one of the points of improvement."
"The product needs to work on the integration of alerts with different SIEM or security solutions."
"VMware SD-WAN could improve by having more partnerships with other vendors."
"The dashboards could be improved."
"It needs better security."
"I would like for them to upgrade to 5G integration. Our customers have 4G now and the connectivity isn't good. It should be much faster."
"I would like to improve the tool’s cloud security features. I would like to see high-throughput hardware requests in the product’s next release. The solution should also support multiple gigs which could be around ten."
"There are a number of customers we have that require a fully mashed SD-WAN on VeloCloud that is not available currently."
"There might be potential enhancements in better integration with other platforms, increased stability, and heightened security."
"The solution doesn't offer failover between their own devices. If I want to, I should be able to put the two devices at the side, so there can be a failover."
