Find out what your peers are saying about TeamViewer, Microsoft, Citrix and others in Remote Access."The policies are easy to use."
"One of the most outstanding features is the ability to deliver third-party services and achieve double authenticity with integrated identities."
"Access is browser-based only and requires no additional client installation."
"The tool is easy to configure and use. We integrated it with Active Directory to manage user authentication. It's intuitive and transparent, making it simple for users to use. It connects automatically to the VPN whenever users turn on the laptop. The product is efficient and offers centralized control."
"It is easy to install the Endpoint Remote Access VPN client to different platforms."
"The IPSec VPN, Mobile Access, and Identity Awareness are three of the blades with which we have been working with since the pandemic. This has given us great mobility, making our network more dynamic."
"For us, it was essential to integrate with Active Directory, which is our credentials repository."
"Our number of users working remotely vastly increased during the COVID 19 pandemic. Check Point Remote Access VPN allowed us to quickly make the transition from in-office to remote work."
"The most valuable part of N-able Take Control is being able to remotely access your customer's site. You are able to view their network. Once you have it set up, it's always available. N-able Take Control can be used even when other remote access controls have been made."
"Take Control enables you to collaborate with end users. It's for supporting a workstation where you want the person on the other side to see you moving their mouse, and you can work with them."
"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."
"There was complexity in the initial setup."
"The product’s architecture is a bit distributed."
"I would like the support to be faster."
"Check Point Remote Access VPN's connectivity and establishment takes time and needs to be faster."
"The non-standard setup is quite complex as you have to do changes via GUI and CLI."
"The authentication that we handle is through a .p12 certificate, however, we have integrated it with a 2MFA service through another provider. Something that could improve Check Point is if it had its own 2MFA service through a blade or some sort of application."
"The client-side UI is fundamental, and there is nothing to see."
"The dashboards I do not use because there are issues. The solution monitors your antivirus and other programs but it does not seem to work well."
"We've seen some latency problems in AWS environments. Aside from that, it's a pretty solid service."
