I definitely recommend it, but unless you're fully trained and experienced on Check Point, you should get the better support program. 

Check Point has support rep programs that go all the way up to putting one of their own people in your business to help you. Then, they have support programs. If you're an expert, you just need to be able to download updated files and stuff. They have support programs like that, too. The worst possible situation is if somebody isn't really skilled with the thing and they cheap out on the support program, and they'll just flounder.

Overall, I would rate the solution an eight out of ten.

I'm glad we made the decision to use a Check Point appliance and am sure that we will stick with Check Point when we replace our current system.

Overall, this is a very good solution.

I would rate the product overall at 8 out of 10, mentioning that while functionalities are there, improvements could be made to make it more user-friendly for laymen, such as incorporating drag-and-drop functionality.

If we want to troubleshoot, we just have to log in to the SMS. Everything is listed there. We just have to log in to the gateway we have an issue with. We need not go to the server rooms. I see no improvements needed in the product. The other gateways and SD-WAN could be improved. If someone wishes to use the product, they have chosen the best option. It provides security, reliability, and support. Though it is expensive, it is the best. It has all the features we need. The product is absolutely excellent. Overall, I rate the tool a ten out of ten.

Top companies in the firewall and software market include Check Point, which recently entered the hardware manufacturing sector. However, this move did not significantly impact its market share as other competitors were already offering more powerful hardware. As a result, the product became more complex, requiring separate handling of hardware and firewall components within the product. This adds additional layers, including network settings, connectivity, and firewall, which can make deployment and configuration more challenging for network engineers. Despite these challenges, Check Point is known for its stability and advanced threat prevention techniques, making it a valuable choice for cybersecurity.

We recommend smaller businesses explore alternative security partners, such as Fortineteen. Fortinet offers an affordable solution with all the necessary security features that customers need, making it a cost-effective option. For larger-sized companies we recommend Check Point Security Management to have visibility of their infrastructure.

I rate Check Point Security Management a seven out of ten.

It is an excellent tool to implement in the organization.

I strongly recommend this solution because it's a highly effective and reliable choice. I would rate it nine out of ten.

I recommend the solution to those planning to use it.

I rate the overall product between nine to ten out of ten.

I can recommend the Check Point solution.

It is an excellent administration tool.

If you have a manageable security infrastructure, the cost, pricing, or licensing will be far outweighed by the reliability and stability. It's great in terms of what a properly managed environment can bring.

If you have a manageable security infrastructure, the cost, pricing, or licensing will be far outweighed by the reliability and stability of how a properly managed environment is.

I rate Check Point Security Management eight out of 10. 

There's a demo of the Security Management available for free - just download and install the SmartConsole application, and you could see the interface and most of the features available.

For us, there are more benefits than failures; it really is an exceptional tool, and I recommend it.

Check Point is one of the top leaders in security solutions.

I rate Check Point Security Management seven out of 10. I recommend it if you're a technical person experienced in WFM security devices. 

This is the best platform for reducing phishing and blocking malware attacks.

I have observed great performance since we deployed this platform.

They should improve the support and the stability of the system. When there are issues, it is not very easy to solve problems using the support they offer. Other vendors like Cisco have better support. This is very important for Enterprise companies - even more than new features.

I would advise others to properly apply good design concepts by engaging professionals. They should properly scope their environment to ensure that they are deploying the solution to optimized standards. They should also ensure that they train their personnel to be able to handle the first level and even second level support when it comes to the management of Check Point.

I would rate Check Point Security Management a seven out of ten considering the skills that are required and the ease of use and management.

On a scale of one to ten, I'd give Check Point Security Management a nine because it is not yet available in our country.

I would rate this solution an eight out of ten (nine for its antivirus capabilities).

We're still in the testing phase in terms of using the solution. Soon, it will be one year since we have fully deployed it. So far, it's been very good. I would rate it eight out of ten.

Do the homework because Check Point is rather expensive. There are better firewalls on the market now that are cheaper and provide better functionality and security.

I rate it a six out of 10 because the user interface is overly complicated.

I would definitely recommend this solution to anybody thinking of implementing it. I would give it a rating of nine out of ten.

This solution is overall our favorite Check Point product. It's a product that you need to have if you have a Check Point Firewall. If you have a Check Point Firewall, you need to have to Check Point Security Management. You cannot manage the firewalls directly, you need to have the manager.

I think it's the best product Check Point has and is the one that makes the difference. When you compare it to, for example, Fortinet, which has a manager that is web-based, it's not as easy to use and easy to drag and drop objects. The way to see the logs is not as good. It works better than web-based FortiManager, for example.

Palo Alto is also web-based, but me and my team, all of us prefer the SmartConsole over the way we have to manage FortiGate. It's very easy to search for rules on the policy, Check Point is much easier than the competition.

The competitors work well but Check Point works better.

If you refresh the page, you will lose what you did. Even the screen resolution is dependent on the browser. Drag and drop is not as good as with Check Point. It's by far the best product we have to manage firewalls. I think the thing that makes the difference on the other Check Point firewalls.

My advice would be to try the SmartConsole before deciding if you want to go ahead with buying Check Point Firewalls and the manager. You can install the application in any Windows, computer, or Windows server and try the SmartConsole in demo mode.

I would rate Check Point Security Management a nine out of ten. 

We're using the on-premises deployment model.

I'd rate the solution seven out of ten.

We are using the on-premises deployment model.

I would rate the solution eight out of ten.

Pay attention to the stability of the solution because it's very critical.

I would rate this solution a nine out of 10. They need to improve the usability. It's good but it can always be better.
