While Check Point Harmony Email & Collaboration is praised for its API-based integration and advanced data leak prevention, users say they want better integration, performance, and support.
"It is very intuitive. It is a point and click type of deal."
"The first most remarkable thing is the integration with the Office 365 solution, which is easy, fast, and totally transparent for the user."
"The stuff that it's picking up and blocking and stopping from coming into our environment has been fantastic."
"Its analysis or emulation in the review of each file using the cloud and Check Point helps make each interaction via email more secure."
"It is fast and has a very simple, easy integration."
"Its total protection has been the greatest aspect since it completely protects all the mail from the cloud."
"The setup is very easy. I haven't faced any complexity with the setup of the solution."
"Encryption of emails enhances safe communication that ransomware attacks cannot compromise."
"The most valuable feature of Prisma Cloud by Palo Alto Networks is the CSPM, which we use the most. Additionally, the investigation and alerts are useful, and the creation of queries."
"The ability to monitor the artifact repository is one of the most valuable features because we have a disparate set of development processes, but everything tends to land in a common set of artifact repositories. The solution gives us a single point where we can apply security control for monitoring. That's really helpful."
"Prisma scans things and shows all the vulnerabilities and packages that are vulnerable, and which layers, by default, have vulnerabilities. So developers can easily go into the package or a particular layer and make changes to their code. It's very transparent."
"The most valuable feature is that the rule set is managed and that it can be run on a regularly scheduled basis."
"I like Palo Alto's threat protection and Wi-Fi coverage. It has advanced features like DNS security and sandboxing. The automation capabilities are excellent."
"It is a good solution. Each team should utilize it. Every good organization is now moving towards or trying to be provider agnostic, so if you are using multiple providers, you should at least give Prisma Cloud a try."
"Prisma Cloud's most important feature is its auto-remediation."
"I would say Twistlock is a fairly sophisticated tool."
"There are a few areas for improvement. One is the occasional sluggishness or latency, which is likely due to the cloud-based nature of the solution. So, the performance can be better."
"There is too much functionality, which makes it difficult to use. More guidance for users would be helpful."
"We have used technical support, but their response time is very slow. It needs to be improved."
"At this time, the two-factor authentication does not work for Active Directory."
"The NAVEX metrics that I have been using on the CloudGuard dashboard cannot be exported. If they were to add report exporting capabilities on each of metric objects on the dashboard, that would be awesome."
"Harmony Email & Collaboration could be improved by making the whitelist available on the website and application level."
"The product's pricing needs improvement."
"They should consider a module that allows the customizing of reports so we can generate executive information for the client (to explain in simple language the general security situation in the SaaS environment)."
"We are encountering issues with the new permissions required for AWS integration with Prisma."
"For some custom policies, we need more features."
"The UI could be improved."
"One definite area for improvement is the auto-remediation or the CWP area. The second one is the RQL language. It is still not very flexible and does not cover a lot of use cases. The RQL language could be dramatically improved to add more options."
"The visibility on the SIEM needs to be streamlined so we can get the data without any issues."
"Some of the usability within the Compute functionality needs improvement. I think when Palo Alto added on the Twistlock functionality, they added a Compute tab on the left side of the navigation. Some of the navigation is just a little dense. There is a lot of navigation where there is a tab and dropdowns. So, just improving some of the navigation where there is just a very dense amount of buttons and drop-down menus, that is probably the only thing, which comes from having a lot of features. Because there are a lot of buttons, just navigating around the platform can be a little challenging for new users."
"When it comes to protecting the full cloud-native stack, it has the right breadth. They're covering all the topics I would care about, like container, cloud configuration, and serverless. There's one gap. There could be a better set of features around identity management—native AWS—IAM roles, and service account management. The depth in each of those areas varies a little bit. While they may have the breadth, I think there's still work to do in flushing out each of those feature sets."
"They should improve the user experience."
