We performed a comparison between Check Point IPS and Trend Micro TippingPoint Threat Protection System based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Intrusion Detection and Prevention Software (IDPS) solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."It is also worth noting that many IPS signature comes with detailed background about the vulnerability, and potentially how the vulnerability would affect the network security."
"IPS signatures can be set quite granularly depending on your environment. You can filter on performance impact, severity, and confidence which makes sizing and adapting easier."
"It offers robust protection with features such as Next Generation firewall capabilities, mobile solutions, and proactive threat prevention."
"It protects against specific known exploits but also, with SandBlast integration, it is able to protect against unknown or zero-day attacks at the perimeter level."
"The number of the IPS protections is amazing - after the latest update I see more than 11000 in the SmartConsole."
"Its event analysis and centralization features are very important for any organization."
"The integration is a valuable feature."
"The tool's most valuable feature is its detection panel. Managing and updating policies within Check Point IPS is easy and without issues. It provides a secure network."
"A standout feature of TippingPoint is its strong integration with various solutions. It stands out as one of the leading network Intrusion Prevention Systems (IPS) in the current market and is known for its seamless integration with other solutions. For instance, when it identifies a potential threat within the traffic stream, it meticulously analyzes the data. Even in multilayer security scenarios, Tipping Point's network IPS can serve as a bypass for the basic firewall. If a threat is identified by Tipping Point, it promptly shares this information with the other systems. This ensures that they're updated and can employ the necessary solutions from their signature databases. The entire network gets safeguarded automatically. This integration extends to components like security and FX. This linkage streamlines our operations, offering a consolidated point of control for managing threats effectively."
"I would rate TTPS's stability eight out of ten."
"For intrusion detection and mitigation, it has helped us in sort of known signatures and all sorts of things. So, we're very happy with the engine. That's the work."
"You don't need any hardware because the solution is on the cloud. I like that Trend Micro TippingPoint Threat Protection System is easy to install and manage."
"It integrates easily."
"The solution's IDS functionality filters the traffic and blocks malware by blocking the connections."
"The most valuable feature is the central command center, where we can control and manage the solution."
"The IPS signatures and the IPS database that are given are much better than what is commonly available."

"Sometimes Check Point documentation is not always updated, which is why when some implementations change, it generates confusion about details."
"It would be good to update the public documentation of Check Point so that we can generate improvements and best practices based on the documentation."
"I hear from my admin that the firmware upgrade process is quite cumbersome."
"The tool's pricing could be better."
"We want the solution to continue to move towards cloud-based and portability focused for telecommuting users."
"What I would like to improve in IPS would be the capacity of the hardware. I would also like to be able to sort signatures by severity. This would greatly impact how well I can manage my environment."
"Having additional reports available would be helpful."
"The solution’s deployment could be easier."
"It integrates well but it takes time."
"The solution should provide the possibility to mix traffic and the traffic's geographical source to have improved functionality."
"An area for improvement in Trend Micro TippingPoint Threat Protection System is the complexity of its interface."
"TTPS is a bit behind in visuals, the UI, and some data elements."
"It takes a lot of time before you're connected to an engineer, so an area for improvement in Trend Micro TippingPoint Threat Protection System is the response time of its technical support team."
"I find Trend Micro TippingPoint Threat Protection System a bit clunky, and updating it can be a pain in the neck because you need to do it from time to time, so this is what needs to be improved in it. I would also rather have an all-in-one system that does intrusion detection, protection, web filtering, and also serves as a firewall, and my company is moving to an all-in-one solution, but I'm unsure of how soon that's going to be. Trend Micro TippingPoint Threat Protection System also doesn't have enough bandwidth to handle the required traffic within my company, so it's going to be replaced."
"We need more integration. It would be good if Azure IPS and TippingPoint IPS and other products from Trend Micro like their DBI and IWSVA could talk between each other."
"The firewall rules are limited."
