Complete solution for Cloud emai and collaboration security

  • March 14, 2023
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
It's a pure cloud solution. Integration with API is very easy. Hence we don't need to change the existing email infra. It has a tight integration with office 365.
What do you dislike about the product?
Price is high., There's no on-premise solution available. Therefore we need to use another solution for an on-premise site which is a big problem.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Email and collaboration security for office 365 is handled by Harmony suite. It gives us one platform to manage and operate within the Infinity portal. It has a superb AI based phishing protection.

Good security and integration but needs better documentation

  • February 25, 2023
  • Review provided by PeerSpot

What is our primary use case?

Our corporate environment requires business protection for email and our collaboration tools to avoid threats, spam, and ransomware, among other threats coming in through email. This could have great effects on our systems and equipment.

With Check Point, we can protect our data in the cloud with tools such as One Drive, among others.

The tool works with different manufacturers, which provides great reliability.

How has it helped my organization?

Check Point has helped us improve our security layer with this complete cloud solution. We no longer depend on a Gateway as it is a complete solution that helps us prevent any type of threat that travels through email.

We have managed to have an impressive reduction in phishing that used to enter our system before applying Check Point.

We also really like its centralized environment since the Check Point Infinity Portal really centralizes everything.

What is most valuable?

The platform offers advanced security measures to protect emails from cyber threats such as phishing attacks, malware, and ransomware.

The platform is cloud-based, which means users can access their emails and collaboration tools from anywhere and on any device.

The security of collaboration tools is great.

The platform integrates with other productivity and collaboration tools like Microsoft Office, Slack, and Zoom.

What needs improvement?

Maybe they could integrate the solution with Avanan. Doing that would really make it a very robust solution.

They could improve Check Point support response times. Sometimes it takes days to resolve or even days to get a first response.

The solution lacks public documentation and some documentation is not so clear, which means that the client does not understand the implementation that must be carried out.

You can only see the costs through a Check Point partner.

For how long have I used the solution?

This is a very productive tool. We used it for a few months. It really helped us protect against threats in email and Microsoft collaborative tools.

What do I think about the stability of the solution?

yes

What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

yes

How are customer service and support?

excellent

How would you rate customer service and support?

Positive

Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?

Previously we did not use more than the security provided by Microsoft itself. We have since changed to Check Point.

What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?

As for the cost, it is per protected user. It seems good to me in that aspect however, the issue of implementation sometimes costs a bit. That's okay if it can be done correctly. The licenses are easy to acquire.

Great tool to fight phishing

  • September 02, 2022
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
What I liked the most was the ease of deployment and integration with our email solution. Also the number of phishing emails we have received since deploying the solution is near to zero.
What do you dislike about the product?
I did not dislike anything about the solution.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We were receiving a significant amount of spam targeting our executives. Also, since we need to comply with PCI, we can now identify and stop credit card information using email.

Collaborate Confidently – Powered by Harmony E&C

  • August 07, 2022
  • Review provided by PeerSpot

What is our primary use case?

Our goal has always been to strengthen our infrastructure. We currently have Microsoft 365. In order to provide a centralized security solution, we use Checkpoint Harmony Email, which provides us with security against phishing attacks, malware, and advanced data protection, among others. Some other features that successfully help provide a robust security infrastructure for all collaborative applications.

It is also important to mention that it is managed under the Check Point Infinity Portal, which is the most modern of the Check Point approaches.

How has it helped my organization?

We have managed to implement this as a totally cloud tool, from the Check Point Infinity Portal. It's super easy. In addition, we have managed to generate DLP policies for the protection of data that is shared to avoid sensitive losses and compliance with regulations.

Also, through the monitoring panel we have been able to see the behavior of our environment and how it is attacked by new threats. We can make decisions to improve our infrastructure thanks to Harmony Email.

What is most valuable?

Check Point Harmony Email tool is very modern. Its characteristics are adapted to the most modern threats. One of its main virtues is its monitoring system, which is very important for decision-making, however, it is also very intuitive, easy to understand, and simple to use.

Its DLP policies are quite easy to implement, which help a lot with compliance with the regulations required by our company in addition to shielding sensitive data.

This tool integrates and protects all collaborative tools, in our case, Microsoft 365.

What needs improvement?

The key improvement for this tool is the inclusion of more collaborative applications. We know that Microsoft has many tools, however, not all of them are covered.

It is also important to validate the documentation. Not all of it is precise. It is very difficult to find the correct ones. In this area, Check Point could generate a more up-to-date library to be able to help customers or companies use their products more.

Finally, the Check Point Infinity Portal sometimes feels a bit slow, and there are performance issues that should be easy to fix.

For how long have I used the solution?

A very modern tool, centralized through Check Point Infinity, this is used by our company on a trial basis during the last semester.

What do I think about the stability of the solution?

Yes

What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

Yes

How are customer service and support?

Great experience with support.

How would you rate customer service and support?

Positive

Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?

Previously, we used Microsoft security tools. However, we needed to centralize the security environments, and it was perfect with Infinity.

What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?

It is important to evaluate the tools before going into production to verify that everything works correctly.

Which other solutions did I evaluate?

We carried out a previous validation of the functions and current tools of the market. It convinced us to move towards Check Point.

What other advice do I have?

Security applications are validated and I would recommend the solution.

Integrates with Office365, strengthens security, and provides visibility

  • July 26, 2022
  • Review provided by PeerSpot

What is our primary use case?

Our company uses Office 365 and clearly, we use Outlook. We needed a tool that had the functionality to verify and validate the emails that enter and leave our organization. With this tool, we can solve security problems since many of the collaborators work from home. With this, we have decreased phishing attacks. It offers quite a few types of analysis and reporting that help to clear up security doubts and how to counter these gaps.

Check Point Harmony Email & Collaboration is workload protection in the cloud. This firewall helps us provide controls on our organization's devices and has become our main tool in the analysis and coverage of the infrastructure and also maintains fairly reasonable scalability.

How has it helped my organization?

Check Point Harmony Email & Collaboration has helped our company with perimeter security and securing our employees from wherever they are working. It's strengthening security as it is able to stop phishing attacks on Office 365 accounts and block possible account hijacking. It is also responsible for detecting malicious files in both OneDrive and SharePoint. This makes the product more robust and also gives us visibility into suspicious access, and provides the areas from which they are trying to enter. With this other feature, it provides more integrity to our company.

What is most valuable?

We have found several features that are very valuable. One of them is the integration with Office365. In addition to that, it is fast and has a very simple, easy integration. In addition to that, it integrates with other Office 365 products. The false positives are minimal, almost nil. That is very important since it will not generate an absurd amount of emails. The functionality of the tool is very easy to configure and manage. The platform is friendly and makes its integrations even more, so this tool is very efficient.

What needs improvement?

Check Point Harmony Email & Collaboration presents a problem similar to the other Check Point tools that it was able to manage, and that is the access to its administrative functions. Since the portal to the management and administration entry sometimes has performance problems and takes a long time to respond to what has arrived, the handling of the tool is difficult.

It presents problems in the management of technical support since the SLA is not optimal, causing delays. This means that security problems may arise since it does not provide a quick response or a concrete solution.

For how long have I used the solution?

I have been using it for approximately 4 years.

What do I think about the stability of the solution?

The tool stability is very good.

What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

The scalability that the solution presents is very good. It is quite scalable.

How are customer service and support?

The experience has not been very pleasant since we have opened cases and they take too much time to respond or schedule a meeting even to provide a solution.

How would you rate customer service and support?

Positive

Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?

There was no other solution implemented.

How was the initial setup?

The initial configuration was very simple and fast.

What about the implementation team?

During the implementation, the provider's team helped us, and it was very efficient; they knew what they were doing

What was our ROI?

The functionality that the tool presents with its characteristics and capabilities helped us a lot in our organization.

What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?

Like all security tools, they are expensive tools. However, Check Point competes in the market and its accessibility is good, so paying for a tool that provides security is worth it.

Which other solutions did I evaluate?

The company has already had several Check Point tools. For this reason, this tool was implemented to keep in line with the same brand and hopefully not present us with problems if we implement another one.

What other advice do I have?

The only advice is to improve the technical support for your users since it is not very efficient.

Check Point Has Us Covered and We are Better for it!

  • May 06, 2022
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I learned of Avanan and then found out Check Point purchased and is using their back end. This product is absolutely the best in the market and is partner friendly.
What do you dislike about the product?
The only dislike I have is that I have to purchase through Synnex or other resellers instead of direct. Service and Support have been excellent when needed.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
This is a crucial shield in front of our staff when it comes to protecting them from modern-day phishing attacks and BEC attacks. I would feel less safe without this in our environment today.

Email security that doesn't cause hair loss

  • February 07, 2022
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The simplicity of the interface: everything is where you'd expect it to be and all of the options make sense. I am fine with "learning a new system" when necessary but I don't want to spend hours each day fumbling with a convoluted mess of a system trying to figure out how to do simple tasks. Check Point Harmony Email and Office has been a breeze to work with.
What do you dislike about the product?
As is the case with most top tier solutions, you'll spend top tier prices to obtain and use them. There also doesn't appear (unless it's hidden) to be a way to only license specified accounts so basically anybody in your tenant that is licensed will consume a seat.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We came from using Mimecast previously and found that solution to be an absolute nightmare to manage. It did 100% what we needed it to do but it also demanded a TON of our time just to manage and maintain. There were days when I felt like I should just change my title to "Mimecast Administrator" with how much time I'd spend in their UI trying to do simple tasks.
