Check Point UTM-1 [EOL] Stability
Its stability is excellent. However, you have to see its initial configuration, this is where all its functionality depends.
View full review »Upgrades are quite troublesome, even more so when you have bigger appliances, with special modules like SAM. Not everything goes according to the procedure suggested by Check Point, causing clusters to fail. There are too many unexpected problems.
View full review »Since I was a beta tester, it had a lot of bugs, which I helped fix.

It's a stable and good community. You can use it, plus you have all the information that you need from the vendors. You need updates sometimes, but not frequently. It's good to use.

The solution is very robust. That is one thing I really like about it. And the durability is also a great thing. With a Check Point solution, we can connect to other solutions and I really like that capability. Right now I have two hundred users.
View full review »I have two clusters, so even in the rare situation that I have a problem with the stability, it will switch to the cluster. The end users would not notice a switch.
View full review »We do have stability. I have only had issues a couple of times. Regarding the synchronization of events between the management platform and the firewall itself, because it was on the huge port and sometimes the management didn't report the loss in time, because it was overwhelmed with the event. In one period, it happened twice.
