"Security-wise, it's one of the best."
"The Intercept X feature is the most valuable feature. You can't find this feature in other firewalls because Intercept X works as if it has an interaction between the endpoint and the firewall."
"The features that I have found most valuable are encryption tools that encrypt the hard disk and the USB sticks."
"In the future, I would like to see is the ability to decrypt equipment."
"They should improve the interface and make it a little more user-friendly."
"Regarding the general topic of support, many have annoyances with it."
"The cost of maintaining the system is high for personal use."
"I rate the support from Check Point Full Disk Encryption Software Blade a six out of ten."

"It needs a management console."
"The solution needs to have better protection and improve its pricing."
"More customization options would have been nice, such as password selection, actions when the screen is locked, etc."
"The implementation of BitLocker is not simple. There are many prerequisites and hours of study and testing."
"The reporting in Microsoft is very minimal."
"It is not good for cross-compatibility, so our Mac users are not able to use it."
"The biggest one for us is revoking access. So, even though someone downloads something to a device, we want the ability to cloak that device or data and bring it back or make that data unusable for that person. Currently, BitLocker doesn't give us that ability. It basically encrypts it. We're seeing if identity management or IAM allows us to do that. We're kind of looking at third-party software that does that for us."
"The initial setup is complex."
"As a tool, Sophos SafeGuard is not optimized."
"The integration could be a little better."
"It would be ideal if the solution had different features within one agent."
"When you have the PPM chipset, you can have the power-on authentication, when you boot up your machine, you can set the six-digit passcode. As of right now, SafeGuard can't manage the six-digit passcode in terms of the expiration, and I need that added as a feature."
"The product is not cheap."
"In the next release, I would like to see more automation with the endpoint logging, but it's a special feature that is quite complicated to explain."
"The cost is rather expensive. It's a pain point for many clients. They should work to see if they can reduce pricing."
"Having a DLP integrated with the encryption engine would be very good."
