Find out in this report how the two Cloud Workload Protection Platforms (CWPP) solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The setup is very easy. I haven't faced any complexity with the setup of the solution."
"The API is its most valuable feature. On the API side, relative to the rest of the market, Check Point is decades ahead of its competitors."
"Based on domain and URL reputation, it will allow traffic to flow."
"In my opinion, it's one of the best products. It does protect other things like Slack and Salesforce, which are more about communication."
"The first most remarkable thing is the integration with the Office 365 solution, which is easy, fast, and totally transparent for the user."
"It is fast and quite effective in terms of preventing any security incidents."
"Check Point adds value with east-west protection in the data center."
"The product's environment is easy to work and comprehensive."
"A complete and powerful micro-segmentation solution."
"It's stable."
"The product offers great visibility into the network so we can enforce security measures."
"The most valuable feature of this solution is security."
"The most valuable feature of the solution is that we don't have to do packet captures on the network."
"Instead of proving that all the access control lists are in place and all the EPGs are correct, we can just point the auditor to a dashboard and point out that there aren't any escaped conversations. It saves an enormous, enormous amount of time."
"Scalability is its most valuable feature."
"By using Tetration insight, we are able to get the latency on our level accounts and we can determine whatever the issue is with the application latency itself."
"Check Point Infinity Portal sometimes feels a bit slow, and there are performance issues that should be easy to fix."
"The NAVEX metrics that I have been using on the CloudGuard dashboard cannot be exported. If they were to add report exporting capabilities on each of metric objects on the dashboard, that would be awesome."
"I would love it if they would do some work on the Postgres definition on the back-end."
"if a phishing email were to get through and bypass the product — which very few do — it would be nice if, when a user clicked on that phishing email, they got a second-chance opportunity, a chance to double-check that they really wanted to proceed to that website."
"I would like Check Point to extend its coverage to include more cloud applications."
"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."
"They could improve Check Point support response times. Sometimes it takes days to resolve or even days to get a first response."
"Check Point has to continue refining the intelligence engine to minimize the number of false positives."
"It is highly scalable, but there is a limitation that it is only available on Cisco devices."
"The interface is really helpful for technical people, but it is not user-friendly."
"There was a controversy when Cisco reduced the amount of data they kept, and the solution became quite cost-intensive, which made its adoption challenging….Although they have modified it now, I preferred the previous version, and I wish all the functionality were back under the same product."
"The emailed notifications are either hard to find or they are not available. Search capabilities can be improved."
"The product must be integrated with the cloud."
"They should scale down the hardware a bit. The initial hardware investment is two million dollars so it's a price point problem. The issue with the price comes from the fact that you have to have it with enormous storage and enormous computes."
"There is some overlap between Cisco Tetration and AppDynamics and I need to have a single pane of glass, rather than have to jump between different tools."
"It is not so easy to use and configure. It needs a bunch of further resources to work, which is mainly the biggest downside of it. The deployment is huge."
