Consultant at ITQS

It is important to note that an EOL product may not have the latest security and support features. That said, it has very good scalability.

It depends if you buy the hardware from Check Point or not. I didn’t, so I didn’t have any issues with scalability.

At the moment, we are using two devices, but according to workloads, you can add more devices as you need to. It's scalable. We have 1001 branches/sites right now. And each branch has at least four users. Our application spread all over the country and we are in all the provinces and districts. Right now we have not less than 3,000 users that must access all our environments through this device.

Also, right now, I only have one Institution, included in this solution. Currently, I'm going to the other government institutions and each one has is own concurrent users/branches.

Yes, it's very scalable. Also, if I have a Check Point firewall, and I want to use a Cisco ASA firewall too, these two firewalls can communicate together. I can put them together and that is great. I have plans to increase usage. If the users increase we have to increase the boxes and all of the hardware.

They are in line with the rest of the on firewall vendors these days. Because you have to implement a software blade or a hardware blade and then if you go beyond a certain range you have to replace the blade with the solution that comes after. It is supported by them and goes from the advanced layer to the intermediate layer.

The scalability is very good. We have we had to upgrade the platform during that time because we needed some additional performance when deploying the application and it was working with the platform.

It is scalable. We can increase users.

Currently, we have around 2000 users. If we increase our students, then we will increase our usage.
