We performed a comparison between Check Point Quantum SASE and Perimeter 81 based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Secure Access Service Edge (SASE) solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The solution is stable."
"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 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."
"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 characteristics that I have liked the most are the ease of implementation and administration."
"It is a very stable solution."
"The monitoring and granular policies are very helpful."
"The tool is easy to use and set up."
"It's improved the security of every single OS in the organization as well as the visibility and security capabilities."
"The product's initial setup phase is very simple."
"The solution has many valuable aspects, including anti-Phishing, which blocks phishing attacks in all applications (email, messaging, and social networks)."
"Now that we use Harmony Connect, the files are inspected and we are sure that no malicious content is inside the company."
"It has provided a seamless gateway to much-needed platforms."
"The solution provides us with an easy way to configure and join the VPN with Perimeter 81."
"Our operators can work from home without any problems."
"The benefits are really built into the underlying protocol, however, Perimeter81 makes these available in a user-friendly way."
"Their split tunneling feature has been very valuable to our company since implementing the Perimeter 81 solution."
"It keeps us all accountable and ensures secure internet connections while we all work remotely."
"It connects quickly and stays connected. The user interface is pretty neat too. The app has in-house support with user guides that give you step-by-step walkthroughs on navigating the app. In addition, there is a live chat feature that offers prompt assistance on the go."
"Scaling Perimeter 81 was easy to do."
"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"
"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."
"Sometimes, the product is very slow."
"Support is one of the points of improvement."
"The product needs to work on the integration of alerts with different SIEM or security solutions."
"In mobile devices, there is also sometimes a bit of tear when it is via LTE, however, that must be due to connectivity."
"Automation and scalability are areas where the solution lacks and needs to improve."
"Harmony lacks this ability when anything more than a vanilla access policy is used (we use layers and source user objects in our policy which make this impossible according to Check Point)."
"There is an issue when installing the Check Point client."
"My customers want more remote functionality. They need another routing option after they connect to the enterprise intranet. For example, let's say a user tries to connect to a remote branch office and headquarters through Harmony Connect. They need a local breakout after connecting to the headquarters, especially in China. They need to put local breakout in the Chinese internet. The current version cannot do something like this."
"Its initial setup process is complex for a hybrid environment."
"Perimeter 81 could enhance its reporting and analytics capabilities to provide more detailed insights into network activity."
"The overall UI could be improved and updated to bring a simpler feel to the application."
"There is a very small amount of downtime."
"The solution's speed of upload and download is an area where it lacks"
"In the future, maybe P81 can improve the network traffic balancing and redundancy."
"Offering in-app explanations detailing what each feature does, its benefits and potential use cases can help users better understand and utilize the tool to its full potential."
"One of the more negative experiences using Perimeter 81 is the fact that I am logged off after a pre-determined amount of time which cuts off access to some of my company's resources."
