Enhanced Internal Security and Efficiency
Check Point Security Management can be improved by addressing a negative challenge I face: sometimes it does not show internet utilization in the GUI. When I ask support, they tell me to upgrade the firmware, which happens quite frequently. Since I deployed the device in my on-premises environment 1.5 years ago, I have experienced this issue three times. Check Point Security Management has not impacted my daily work or decision-making in any negative way. As an IT person, I occasionally need to check how much internet bandwidth has been used in the internal network over the past month, day, or week. During those times, when I open the data utilization column, it shows nothing available. Each time this happens, I need to upgrade to the latest version of the firmware, and this frequent updating affects my productivity negatively. If Check Point addresses this issue in the future, it will be beneficial for all customers using Check Point SMBs.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Each department can easily share data with the management without fear of data compromise."
"Key features include the ability to include logs for everything that you do for admin. Also, it has web filtering built in and VPN."
"We are now able to monitor the different VPN communities in real-time."
"Regarding the tool's valuable features, I would say that Check Point is a very accessible and fast tool, especially when dealing with logs for the first time."
"One of the most outstanding characteristics of its centralized administration is its great computing power."
"Check Point Security Management has improved our organization because all corporate firewalls can be managed with a single interface."
"The reporting system provides real-time insights into the security situation and shows measures that can be taken to protect our data."
"Having the possibility to use Smart Event to check for threats on a broader scale helps after a security incident and also makes it easier to check - instead of looking through different logs."
"​I would rate the technical support very well as they are knowledgeable and quick to respond​."
 

Cons

"Installing a policy takes a very long time to complete."
"Support is the main area that they need to improve. Our support experience is not very smooth. We are based in Africa, and we don't know whether it is because of our region. I would like a feature where there is a workflow to provide authorization to some users before they're able to create and apply rules. Such a feature should be integrated with the management. It should not be in the box that comes with it."
"The management API can be further developed so that all functions offered by the dashboard are also available via the API (for example, Network Topology)."
"In the future, I would like the platform to be able to integrate or manage appliances or third-party equipment."
"It could improve by showing DNS-specific information for connections to unknown public IPs."
"The tool is expensive."
"I would like this solution to be integrated directly into the Cluster XL equipment."
"The usability of the solution could be improved."
"​It needs to have better reporting. ​"
"​It was very complex. There was poor native correlation. ​"
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The solution is expensive and there is an annual license."
"Do the homework because Check Point is rather expensive."
"The solution is expensive."
"Price-wise, it is an expensive solution."
"If one will be very expensive, and ten means low price, I rate the tool's price as a three out of ten."
"This product can be used for 25 security gateways on a basic license."
"Check Point is much cheaper than the competition ($4/server as compared to $17/server)."
"The pricing can be estimated around 3 or 4 out of 10 in terms of expense."
"Do a PoC. Make it detailed so it can help later."
