"The interface is really friendly. It's simple to understand."
"It is pretty stable."
"The simplicity of the SDP platform is a standout feature; instead of navigating through intricate details, users can seamlessly connect to the company's network or switch to the internet with minimal effort."
"The flexibility of the tool is valuable. It is very robust. It has a very robust configuration capability."
"One of the most important features is stopping lateral movement across our network."
"For a basic setup, implementation is quite easy."
"The secure hotspot access for enabling good network connectivity is great."
"The most important feature of Check Point Remote Access VPN is the multiple factor authentication."
"It is stable most of the time."
"It operates effectively, particularly during challenges like adversities or infrastructure issues."
"For us, it was essential to integrate with Active Directory, which is our credentials repository."
"The safety of online interactions when working with this product has enabled members to convene productive meetings without fear of being attacked."
"The biggest advantage of Check Point Remote Access VPN is that we already use the Check Point firewall. We only needed to enable the feature and do the configuration in order to enable the VPN feature. We didn't need to buy or manage new hardware. This was a big advantage."
"The user interface should be improved as it is not very easy to work with the updates."
"One thing that kind of sticks out to me is the ability to do a proper non-split tunnel. VPN tunnel-wise, it is not really a true unsplit tunnel, but I think that's just because of the way it's designed. A split VPN basically allows your system to talk to other systems without being forced down the tunnel. A VPN running in a non-split tunnel mode forces all the traffic down the tunnel to wherever you're VPNing to. It forces the traffic down so that the traffic is subject to the firewall and rules that you have in your corporate environment and such. It helps to prevent remote malicious folks that may be talking directly to that box from piggybacking into the corporate environment through it. They do it partially, but it would be nice to see more of an enterprise-level solution there."
"They could provide a single-box solution to manage tools for 4000 users. Additionally, they could add extra features to enhance remote micro connection."
"One limitation is that it's harder to provide access to multiple applications in the company with Appgate, but that's probably because of poor management."
"It would be better to connect to an application portal from any device. Documentation and support could be better."
"On the cloud, when you make some changes, it may be difficult."
"There was complexity in the initial setup."
"The Linux version may have an app (similar to Windows) instead of a shell script."
"Improved scalability would allow the solution to handle larger numbers of users and devices without a significant impact on performance."
"In my organization, there aren't Linux users, however, I know it has difficulties offering secure access for customers who use this operating system."
"They need to increase their timeout. Right now, it will fail after ten seconds, however, it shouldn't fail until after 20. If you don't get on your phone right away and check on your authentications, it will kick you out."
"In an environment with multiple cluster checkpoints, the global properties common to all clusters in some cases give problems."
"We have noted some stability issues."
"We'd like to integrate Check Point into the Remote Access VPN solution and have the ability to integrate multiple devices as access points through the solution."
