Remote Access Security Reinforced with Real-Time Device Protection
Dashboard customization is needed for improvements. While the centralized management is strong, the dashboard could offer more flexibility. It would be helpful to tailor views for different roles, such as IT or security support. Regarding needed improvements, custom report building could be enhanced. Current reports are informative, and a drag-and-drop builder would allow teams to create tailored views for compliance, executive summaries, or operational metrics. For further improvements, enhancing threat simulation and testing would be valuable. Building a threat simulation tool and adding native capabilities to simulate phishing, malware, or ransomware scenarios will help teams validate protection and train users without relying on third-party tools.

User-friendly solution with good blocking
I mainly use Security Premium as an antivirus.  Security Premium's best features are blocking, notifications, and the user interface. Security Premium's cost could be lower. I've been using Security Premium for a year. Security Premium is stable - I haven't faced any issues or bugs while using…

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The set of features is quite comprehensive."
"They have pretty much everything you can ask for as far as features are concerned. That is because they know their market. They are focused on what they do and they do only that."
"We can say that Check Point Harmony Endpoint is a fast solution, easy to install, simple to manage, and, above all, when in use, it is not very intrusive with users' daily activities."
"The platform's most valuable features are the ability to build API, which meets our business requirements, and the VPN client, which provides VPN access from a single client."
"If we talk about ROI, then the solution is good, as we are getting a sandbox feature in it plus the VPN licenses if we have the Check Point firewall."
"It's a scalable product as it is a cloud offering."
"This software incorporates security AI features and effectively manages bandwidth with its DRS capabilities."
"This antivirus has powerful security features that online threats cannot compromise."
"The ransomware protection that they have now is worth considering."
"Flexible antivirus and antimalware software. It also provides protection against ransomware. It's flexible, easy to handle, scalable, and stable."
"The most valuable feature is the multifunctional protection."
"The internet security was a plus, and it's pretty good."
"Norton Security Premium is good, and it's pretty simple to install."
"We like how it can check for issues, including files and web browsers, as it is a full-stack solution for antivirus for personal use and it is pretty effective."
"The dashboard is good."
"The product is called Norton 360 all-in-one. It is a full product."
 

Cons

"The pricing for Check Point Antivirus is a bit higher compared to other vendors or standalone antivirus options, and my request to the company is to consider reducing the licensing costs."
"I think Check Point Harmony Endpoint could be improved as I dislike the management interface because it's not intuitive, it lacks real-time reporting without configuring smart events, and it made administration less efficient."
"Check Point should improve on their patch management by releasing patches more frequently, such as on a weekly basis, to stay ahead of potential vulnerabilities."
"Check Point Harmony Endpoint's agent is a bit heavy."
"I would like to see support for a policy in the appliance that will refuse to create a connection if it does not detect an active virus scanner."
"The management console could be made more intuitive and user-friendly, with simplified navigation and clearer visualizations of threat data and security statuses. Improve the performance impact on systems, especially for older hardware."
"The services of EDR consumption should be reduced and the support needs to be improved."
"Check Point Harmony Endpoint poses a steep learning curve and has high resource consumption, requiring high-performance PCs on our endpoint site."
"They say Norton Security Premium is an all-in-one solution, but we don't know exactly what's in it, e.g. they didn't make an effort to explain the difference between a virus scan and a ransomware scan."
"I do not find it to be scalable."
"The product is an antivirus, it should be updated automatically when needed."
"As far as improvement to the product, perhaps the price could be better."
"Having a dashboard that shows the different functions of Norton Security Premium can convince end users that the software is more than just an antivirus solution. This product offers several features, but end users think that it's just one out of the box solution, because the different functions are not explained in detail."
"During scanning, sometimes, there is a heavy load on the workstation. This needs to be improved."
"The product could always be more secure."
"The only problem with Norton Antivirus is that it consumes a lot of resources like CPU and memory in the background. Whenever it's scanning, my laptop becomes very slow, and the worst part is you cannot do anything about it. As this product is secured by my local IT team, you cannot even kill that process, and that's what I've felt about many other antivirus solutions. I'm using McAfee for personal use, and I have the same problem."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"We implement this solution with a yearly subscription and there are no extra costs."
"In terms of licensing, have a buffer zone around your projects in terms of the amount of endpoints that you want to have. You can always have more, but it is best to leave room for a little increase or growth."
"Check Point Harmony Endpoint is cost effective."
"In comparison to other software solutions available on the market, it comes at a higher price point."
"The solution is too pricey."
"The price is good."
"The pricing is reasonable."
"I rate Check Point Harmony Endpoint's pricing a seven out of ten because it is a little high."
"Security Premium costs around US$100 for three years, which is a little expensive."
"The solution gives the value for the money."
"I don't pay for a license."
"As I have been a long-time customer, I was given a fair price of $49.95 per month for the first four to six months."
"Pricing for this software is competitive."
"The licensing fee for this solution is not expensive."
"Security Premium is highly-priced."
"If they could come down in price that would be good. It's not exactly the lowest."
