Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"Check Point has enabled us to detect a lot of threats and prevented a lot of threats from entering our environments. It has kept us safe.""Very few false positives are detected, which gives the confidence to raise flags when needed, ensuring the IT department is aware of threats and acting fast.""When our workers are downloading software, SandBlast Cloud is useful to emulate the downloads that the workers are doing. Then, there are no threats coming into the company.""The forensics reports and the ability to sandbox malware are its most valuable features.""The zero-day protection is its most valuable feature.""The main feature of the solution is that it protects against malicious threats from the outside.""The Check Point SandBlast Network uses caching and static analysis to actually reduce the time it takes to scan and isolate the same file for incoming data compromises.""Threat extraction can help us to remove malicious content from documents by converting them to PDF."

Cons
"I would like to see some speed improvements, e.g., how quickly you can get through all the menus. It crashes sometimes because we push so much through it. Therefore, I would like to see more small things behind the scenes, such as, back-end stability in terms of the management application.""I would like if it could emulate bigger files and somehow improve this usability. I don't know if this would be possible. However, if it was able to scan or emulate bigger files, then it would be safer for a company using it.""Today, we have it as part of a solution or a package. However, we'd like there to be a way where we can have the solution's features available to us in a cheaper way in the future.""There should be some customized price reductions in the offered packages.""Most of the time stability is okay, but sometimes, we're not able to contact the cloud. It won't last for long. The product could be faster.""We would like to see this solution reach mobile devices more efficiently, through apps or more specific products.""There have been a couple of things that we've tried where we read through the documentation, and we were really looking for some help in implementing, and technical support wanted me to try it first, then call them if it breaks. It would be nicer if they would hold my hand a bit more. It makes me nervous in production, as I don't have a lab.""The technical support could use some work, but it's okay. It's a little bit of a tedious process to get through."

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "We have seen ROI."
  • "We would like to try the Threat Extraction blade, but you need to buy a license. Check Point is expensive. I would like to buy things, but I would need the funding."
  • "Choosing the correct set of licenses is essential because, without the additional software blade licenses, the Check Point gateways are just a stateful firewall."
  • "I think the overall cost for introducing Check Point with SandBlast was reasonable and competitive in the market."
  • "The cost is not significantly high and it can be negotiated during any purchase of NGFW."
  • "The cost of Check Point SandBlast Network is annually, and there is only a standard license."
  • "The pricing is quite effective, not excessively high. On a scale of one to ten, where ten is the highest price, I rate the pricing a nine."

    Top Answer:The configuration could be optimized. The usability could improve. They need to make the guides more specific with images, as it is very complicated to guess where each option is located. The… more »
