"We have more control over the activity that users have on the internal network, thanks to the monitoring offered by Check Point and the security provided by the gateway."

"GoodAccess has significantly improved security in our organization."
"The solution has easy-to-use administration and offers an easy implementation."

"It has become an integral part of our remote work toolkit, as it enables us to overcome USA IP restrictions, ensuring our global teams can collaborate effectively."
"We love the simple interface and speed and reliability of the system."
"There must be a more easy-to-use GUI."
"It would be good to have Remote Access VPN solutions for Check Point edge services."
"The maximum it is giving us is only 5 licenses and if you need more, they must be purchased separately."
"The product’s architecture is a bit distributed."
"The non-standard setup is quite complex as you have to do changes via GUI and CLI."
"Sometimes we have some small problems with Check Point Remote Access VPN. For example, problems with authentication."
"The connection has gotten less smooth as the number of users increases. The issue is that the logs fill up quickly. Too many users are connecting remotely. It worked great when we only had a few remote connections. Now, it is disconnecting people and dropping the internet connection."
"When you want to deploy a new Check Point agent, it is really a pain in the butt. For example, Windows 10 now has updates almost every couple of months. It changes the versioning and things under the hood. These are things that I don't understand, because I'm not a Windows person. However, I know that the Check Point client is installed on the Windows machine, and if the Check Point client's not kept up-to-date, then it's functionality breaks. It has to be up-to-date with the Windows versions. Check Point has to update the client more often. Now, the problem is that the Check Point client is not easy to update on remote computers and it's not easy to deploy a new client."
"The interface itself needs improvement. When you need to create something, you have to go through a lot of steps. It needs to be simplified."
"This past year, I did not like having to purchase an upgrade to a plan with a minimum number of seats to get the features we needed. We do not use all of the seats."
"The product could improve by extending its chat support beyond 8-5 CET, Monday to Friday, to a 24/7 service for better accessibility and immediate assistance."
"There is one minor drawback to mention: occasionally, the Internet connection tends to slow down noticeably while using the VPN."
"The logs do not go back very far."
"Their recent revision in pricing was a jolt. Though any business understands the need for periodic pricing evaluations, a clearer communication strategy and more gradual changes might have been more palatable for long-term clients like us."
"The interface information could show more information about how threats have occurred. Right now, it only shows basic threat information."
"Currently, the pricing structure is functional yet could benefit from more refined scalability calculations."
"For small organizations, it works great. However, the larger the organization, the more scalable the pricing model, the better, since gateways can be very expensive if an organization needs multiple gateways."
