Comparison Results: Our users prefer Prisma Cloud by Palo Alto Networks over Check Point Harmony Email & Collaboration. Prisma Cloud offers extensive visibility, continuous cloud compliance monitoring, and seamless integration with other tools. It also addresses a gap in the market by providing container and serverless security capabilities. 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.
"The offensive security where they do a fix is valuable. They go to a misconfiguration and provide detailed alerts on what could be there. They also provide a remediation feature where if we give the permission, they can also go and fix the issue."
"PingSafe's integration is smooth. They are highly customer-oriented, and the integration went well for us."
"The UI is very good."
"The most valuable feature of the solution is its storyline, which helps trace an event back to its source, like an email or someone clicking on a link."
"Cloud Native Security is a tool that has good monitoring features."
"It used to guide me about an alert. There is something called an alert guide. I used to click on the alert guide, and I could read everything. I could read about the alert and how to resolve it. I used to love that feature."
"It's positively affected the communication between cloud security, application developers, and AppSec teams."
"The cloud misconfiguration is the most valuable feature."
"The main benefit is that hackers can't steal information."
"Check Point adds value with east-west protection in the data center."
"The solution helps to block spam emails."
"The product's environment is easy to work and comprehensive."
"The most valuable features would be its ability to intercept phishing emails and emails laden with malware, viruses, false links, etc."
"Email security has improved since we deployed this platform."
"Being able to mass quarantine and remove emails from end users' mailboxes has become extremely important to us as we have grown in size."
"It is very intuitive. It is a point and click type of deal."
"It has improved the overall collaboration between SecOps and DevOps. Now, instead of asking people to do something, it is a default offering in the CI/CD. There is less manual intervention and more seamless integration. It is why we don't have many dependencies across many teams, which is definitely a better state."
"The runtime mechanism on the solution is very useful. It's got very good network mapping between containers. If you have more than one container, you can create a content data link between them."
"Integration is very easy. And because it supports security that spans multi- and hybrid-cloud environments, it's very easy to use."
"It provides good visibility and control regardless of the complexity."
"The first aspect that is important is the fact that Prisma Cloud is cloud-agnostic. It's actually available for the five top cloud providers: AWS, GCP, Azure, Oracle, and Alibaba Cloud. The second aspect is the fact that we can write our own rules to try to detect misconfigurations in those environments."
"Due to the maturity of most companies, security posture management is the most valuable feature."
"I like Prisma's ability to integrate with other tools. We can integrate it with Jira so that when Prisma triggers an alert, it opens a ticket in Jira. That was a big selling point for the product. There's a feature called the guest custom template that allows you to trigger alerts in Jira based on the template. That can also be added as a feature on Jira."
"The most valuable feature of Prisma Cloud is WAF (web application firewall)."
"When you find a vulnerability and resolve it, the same issue will not occur again. I want PingSafe to block the same vulnerability from appearing again. I want something like a playbook where the steps that we take to resolve an issue are repeated when that issue happens again."
"We are getting reports only in a predefined form. I would like to have customized reports so that I can see how many issues are open or closed today or in two weeks."
"Bugs need to be disclosed quickly."
"It took us a while to configure the software to work well in this type of environment, as the support documents were not always clear."
"Sometimes the Storyline ID is a bit wacky."
"There is no break-glass account feature. They should implement this as soon as possible because we can't implement SSO without a break-glass feature."
"It does not bring much threat intel from the outside world. All it does is scan. If it can also correlate things, it will be better."
"The Kubernetes scanning on the Oracle Cloud needs to be improved. It's on the roadmap. AWS has this capability, but it's unavailable for Oracle Cloud."
"The business team should be further expanded, and more peer feedback should be made available publicly to have better and complete visibility of the application globally."
"The left-hand feature can be made more granular for the implementation of the policy."
"I would like Check Point to extend its coverage to include more cloud applications."
"I have learned enough to make the product stable. However, the stability has some challenges."
"Check Point has to continue refining the intelligence engine to minimize the number of false positives."
"Check Point could improve its marketing strategy."
"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."
"There is always room for improvement and growth."
"They are missing some compatibility details in their documentation."
"When there are updates, whether daily, weekly, or monthly, it needs configuration or permission adjustments. There is no automation for that, which is too bad."
"I would like Prisma Cloud to improve its mapping feature to increase usability."
"More documentation with real-world use cases would be helpful."
"It would be ideal if they could somehow reduce the deployment time."
"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."
"While Prisma provides a lot of visibility, it also creates a ton of work. Most customers that implement Prisma Cloud have thousands of alerts that are urgent."
"We'd like to have more native integration with clouds and additional security checks in the future."
