We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"SandBlast updates the threat signatures frequently.""One of its characteristics that we liked the most was its analysis and emulation of activities in the emails since it manages to review them and inspect them if they have an infected attachment.""Threat Emulation gives networks the necessary protection against unknown threats in files that are attached to emails. The Threat Emulation engine picks up malware at the exploit phase before it enters the network. It quickly quarantines and runs the files in a virtual sandbox, which imitates a standard operating system, to discover malicious behavior before hackers can apply evasion techniques to bypass the sandbox.""It enables my IT system to apply threat detection intelligence and diffuse the endpoint and potential threat attacks and phishing attacks onto the system in the most proactive and secure manner.""It has caught some harmful attachments and downloads.""In terms of the scalability, it's expandable across the cloud.""We didn't really have any IPS before. So, Check Point has improved our security posture. People get used to doing things certain ways, which might not be the best or most secure way, and they can't do that now, which just requires more education of the user base. With the endpoint client, we've started to use Check Point for remote access.""The Check Point SandBlast Network uses caching and static analysis to actually reduce the time it takes to scan and isolate the same file for incoming data compromises."

"One of the most valuable features is the performance, since, so far, we have not faced any issues with Deep Discovery.""As a security product, managing threats is crucial for my clients.""Deep Discovery is scalable and compatible with other products. It's crucial to have that compatibility because it's an integral part of our security solution. It integrates smoothly. The interface is user-friendly, so administration is simple.""The most valuable features are monitoring for advanced persistent threats, the system runs in a sandbox allowing for effective zero-day exploits management, and the Inspector has a built-in sandbox.""The solution has extension-based features that help it to analyze the environment. The environment can have different platforms like Windows, Linux, and Mac. The tool will give a report which can confirm the analysis of the issues. You can also get clear information on threats or suspicious files.""Initial setup is easy. It can be done by yourself.""The HTML file sandboxing is very good.""The product's initial setup phase was not difficult."

Cons
"The guides or best practices of Check Point are difficult to find for the client. Therefore, it is sometimes difficult to make better implementations.""The technical support could use some work, but it's okay. It's a little bit of a tedious process to get through.""I would like to see some speed improvements, e.g., how quickly you can get through all the menus. It crashes sometimes because we push so much through it. Therefore, I would like to see more small things behind the scenes, such as, back-end stability in terms of the management application.""The file types that can be scanned are limited, which means that if the file type is not listed or enabled for the sandbox, they are bypassed and it can lead to a security issue.""We would like to see this solution reach mobile devices more efficiently, through apps or more specific products.""They need to improve the GUI interface.""In Check Point SandBlast, improvement has to be made with respect to the GUI.""Today, we have it as part of a solution or a package. However, we'd like there to be a way where we can have the solution's features available to us in a cheaper way in the future."

More Check Point SandBlast Network Cons →

"Trend Micro Deep Discovery's technical support could be improved, and it could be made more active.""Trend Micro can improve the pricing in general. There is nothing else they can add or improve in the solution.""The scalability is sometimes limited.""The solution could be more stable and offer more security.""The solution should support multiple platforms in Windows, Linux, and Mac. Customers can have different software types. The virtual environment should be able to install and analyze them. The tool also gives only a minimum level of extension support. It may not be able to extract files and give details about them. I would also like to see third-party product integration in the tool. The solution's current integration is only with Trend Micro products only.""The tool's configuration can be made easier.""Some of the end users may not be technically proficient, so they occasionally face problems due to a lack of knowledge.""Trend Micro Deep Discovery is a very expensive solution, making it very hard to sell."
