Vice President at Korchek Technologies
Has provided secure remote access for years but inconsistent support delays resolution
Regarding logging and management, while some of the logging is really good, other times it's not so great, and we've had to reach out to Check Point a few times for assistance, and the support we've gained hasn't been up to par with what Check Point usually offers as part of their support. When it comes to improvements, not specifically the remote access VPN, but the support associated with Check Point products has fallen over the last two years, and the response time is much worse, with the first layer of support lacking sufficient knowledge on how to troubleshoot issues.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The team has full visibility of the users that connect allowing them to keep control of who is in the network and what data they are allowing to come in and out."
"The ability to create your trigger data domains is the solution's most valuable feature."
"Scalability is great. We have been able to grow as a corporation due in part to this type of solution."
"Check Point Remote Access VPN offers multi-factor authentication when connecting to organizational networks, which adds an extra layer of security by requiring multiple verification steps when users connect."
"This solution allows users to connect from any location, is very flexible, lets us easily control access and view usage statistics, and we are happy with the overall stability, easy configuration on the gateway side, and ease of deploying clients to endstations."
"Overall, I rate Check Point Remote Access VPN a nine."
"This platform has developed a reliable communication infrastructure that employees can use to communicate with remote workers."
"The complexity is hidden within a full mesh network, allowing seamless user-to-application connectivity with minimal delay."
"The solution is easy to use and has a straightforward user interface."
 

Cons

"It needs to improve the capability of the Secure browser VPN connections."
"The scalability needs improvement."
"It would be good to have Remote Access VPN solutions for Check Point edge services."
"Check Point Remote Access VPN could be more user-friendly."
"They could add more features, like the security to block off the doors, or create another hatch, something like this."
"In my organization, there aren't Linux users, however, I know it has difficulties offering secure access for customers who use this operating system."
"Sometimes it will be disconnected, but it's a good solution."
"Check Point Remote Access VPN can be improved by having more granular options to steer traffic, like easier configurations for split tunneling, which is currently complex."
"The design of the user interface could be improved."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Regarding pricing, as a global customer, we get a big discount. For us, it's a good return on investment. We need to pay for additional features we want to enable. It seems cheaper than other vendors, but I can't say what it would cost an average customer."
"My company makes yearly payments only towards the licensing costs attached to Check Point Remote Access VPN, as there are no extra costs attached to the product."
"Check Point Remote Access VPN is not expensive and the cost is annual."
"The solution is pretty expensive. The rating is an eight."
"There is a license required for this solution."
"I give the price of the solution a five out of ten."
"Organizations that already have the Check Point NGFW need to purchase an additional license to have access to the VPN functionality."
"My understanding is that the pricing and licensing are very competitive, and it's not one of their more expensive products. We buy licenses for the solution and have licenses for the endpoint servers."
"On a scale from one to ten, where one is expensive and ten is cheap, I rate the solution's pricing an eight out of ten."
