"On Dome9, you can have reports on compliance, users created, and EAM access to the cloud infrastructure. For example, if some machine is exposed to the Internet, importing and exporting to the Internet when it shouldn't, we get immediate alerts if someone does this type of configuration by mistake. Dome9 is very important because AWS doesn't protect us for this. It is the client's responsibility to make sure that we don't export things to the Internet. This solution helps us ensure that we comply with our security measures."
"It has an analytics service that does research for us."
"Auto remediation is a very effective feature that helps ensure less manual intervention."
"The ability to drill down to individual hosts on an account and see which ones are affected is valuable."
"The reporting is quite good. It is the most powerful aspect of this solution."
"Dome9 has improved our organization; we have a centralized view of all of our assets, our visible assets our ECs, our inventories. And then all the policies are centralized, and it is easier to manage because everything is one component console."
"I love the work involved in maintaining and scaling security services and configurations across multiple public clouds using this solution, versus using native native cloud security controls. It is so much better. The different cloud platforms all have their own way that they handle a lot of the stuff that Dome9 handles. Even within their platform, they are in a lot of disparate places, e.g., in AWS, there are five different tools. You have to jump between them to get the same information that you can just pull in automatically on Dome9, which is just one platform. We are using multiple platforms, so that makes it even more complicated and time consuming if you had to just rely on them to get all of your information. Whereas, it's all just summarized and put together on the Dome9 end."
"The most valuable feature of Check Point CloudGuard Posture Management is the training."
"Its total protection has been the greatest aspect since it completely protects all the mail from the cloud."
"We are able to protect sensitive business data and maintain regulatory compliance with advanced data leak prevention (DLP)."
"The setup is very easy. I haven't faced any complexity with the setup of the solution."
"I can count the number of endpoints, emails, and collaborations being used in the environment."
"It is very intuitive. It is a point and click type of deal."
"We need the phishing detection and email quarantine. Once an email is considered malicious, it stays in the quarantine where we can interrogate it. We can check out why it was quarantined and see if it should be delivered to the individual."
"The ease of management and intuitive administration are excellent."
"I like the fact that having granular information about the potential threats is received in email."
"Reporting should have more options."
"Scalability, particularly in workload protection, is an area that needs improvement."
"It should capture more information in metadata including communication detail. Also, Internal IP addresses should not be tracked as this might be having some compliance issues."
"The tool has a lot of potential, but today, it lacks a lot of Scripts/Bots for Azure."
"I am not a technical person, but generically, the user interface can be a little more intuitive. Our staff has trained network security and cloud security professionals, and they get it, but when you are trying to get to the customers to be able to pick it up and maintain it, it can be a bit difficult."
"We have concerns regarding the pricing and would appreciate seeing some improvements."
"The integration process could be enhanced by enabling integration at the organizational level rather than requiring the manual setup of individual accounts."
"There are opportunities for improvement that can be addressed through a roadmap."
"Check Point Infinity Portal sometimes feels a bit slow, and there are performance issues that should be easy to fix."
"Other vendor support teams go after fixing the issue the moment that they join the remote session. The problem that I have faced with Check Point support is that they share the case number with me, then it takes at least two days for them to join a remote session with us, even though we have asked for this timeframe to change. Even though we have already explained the problems that we are facing or the business pain points in our network on the call or email, we have to repeat the problem statements again in the console. It can take four or five days to resolve the issue from the moment they understand the problem. This includes the time to teach their R&D or internal team whatever the issue is. I have faced timeframes as long as seven to 10 days for fixing some issues."
"We have used technical support, but their response time is very slow. It needs to be improved."
"The business team should be further expanded, and more peer feedback should be made available publicly to have better and complete visibility of the application globally."
"A signature-based filter could improve the solution's AI model for spam email."
"From time to time, the system's administrators notice the increase in the false-positive alerts being reported by CloudGuard SaaS."
"The product's pricing needs improvement."
"The implementation could definitely be better."
