We performed a comparison between Check Point Web Gateway and Netskope Next Gen Secure Web Gateway based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Secure Web Gateways (SWG) solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."On the outside, the main differentiation is because Lookout ingest. They have ingested basically all of the apps for the last ten years and all the versions of all the apps, and we have that in a corporate database that allows us to do very large-scale machine learning and analysis on that data set. That's not something that any of the competitors really have the capability to do because they don't have access to the data set. A lot of the apps you can no longer get them because that version of the app is five or six years old, and it just doesn't exist anywhere anymore, except within our infrastructure. So, the ability to have that very rich dataset and learn from that dataset is a real differentiator."
"The most valuable features are the antivirus as a whole, the anti-malware, and all of the protection features that scan our enterprise devices."
"The solution is stable."
"The protection offered by the product is the most valuable feature. It detects vulnerabilities or traps on our users' phones and then prompts them to clean up their devices. Tools we used previously would only discover, which required us to gather information on the backend, so Lookout is a welcome upgrade."
"It's easy to deploy this tool."
"The implementation of this tool was straightforward."
"You don't have to wander around the tool since it is very simple. You can grab and get a hold of the tool very quickly."
"Application control gives IT teams an opportunity to set suitable policies that can be used by all teams when coding."
"It is very stable."
"Application control allows the administrator to create granular policies based on users to allow, block, or limit access."
"The most valuable feature that I see in the application is the filtering of the URLs."
"It can also be used as a reverse proxy through the checkpoint."
"We've found the solution to be quite stable."
"As Netskope is a cloud-based application, it is possible to analyze and distinguish personal and enterprise instances."
"The solution offers good security functionality."
"We can connect cloud apps and monitor them."
"The solution's CASB, DLP, and threat protection features are very good."
"Prevents data leakage and protects data."
"One of the valuable features of the solution is that everything is on the cloud. It has no on-premise hardware to deal with."
"The solution has some useful features, such as microservices. They have sandboxing that allows the prevention, encryption, and remote browser isolation."
"We just submitted an enhancement request reflecting the main area we want to see improvement in; the APIs. Currently, we're able to build dashboards, but it's somewhat backward because we use our MDM API to create them. Lookout should provide API to customers so we can query our data and use it in our cloud, and this is the only outstanding area for improvement with the product right now."
"Lookout was moving into the SSE space. And so their work on SecureWeb Gateway and SD-WAN is still sort of evolving."
"From the analysis that we've done, they do seem to be maybe a step behind in trying to enter the market with a new solution. But when they do pick up, they do come out with some good products."
"The stability depends on the service from where you access it. Because sometimes, the place you are in, you have Gateway. You don't have Gateway. The gateway is overutilized. At the end, you need to go through their gateways. And this is the key point here. You have a tracking point. If it's not well orchestrated, and it scales up as you add more to the existing team, you will suffer"
"Check Point Web Gateway could improve the user interface. It could be made more modern."
"Most of the time, we are struggling when it comes to getting support."
"It is not user-friendly."
"The tool's response time can be improved since sometimes it lags, but not always...The tool's UI should be made more dynamic."
"There should be an improvement in interface integration."
"Some documents needed to implement with the best practices are difficult to understand, take longer than expected to apply, and sometimes even require support."
"Check Point Web Gateway could add an end point access function."
"I would like to see improvement in the tool's availability."
"The solution needs to improve its on-premise detection technique."
"Netskope Next Gen Secure Web Gateway needs to integrate IoT, which can help to control devices."
"The solution could improve the features for Zero Trust Network Access. They should add more security components to that module."
"The accuracy could be improved."
"The stability of the solution to be very good. It is not the best and could improve but it is better than other solutions, such as Forcepoint."
"Netskope can only provide the high level related to threats."
"There is room for improvement in streamlining policies. So what happens is that when you apply a specific Netskope policy, you never know the kind of content it will automatically block, or it will allow."
"The solution lacks a good reporting feature."
