Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"The initial implementation was accomplished easily and without deployment problems.""The Check Point Infinity security architecture enables organizations to fully implement all of the Zero Trust Principles.""It is a scalable product.""The detection and reaction rates are good.""The tool's most valuable feature for threat prevention is the encryption alarm. I find the centralized management console, including the log analyzer and reports in Check Point Infinity, extremely beneficial for enhancing security and operations efficiency in our enterprise. I would rate it a perfect ten out of ten, as it effectively helps us analyze logs, and detect potential attacks.""We have full control over what our employees can do with the devices we provide them, to provide a secure and reliable network infrastructure.""It provides fantastic visibility of security incidents through deconstructing and dissecting the threat's infection protocol.""I would rate the stability a ten out of ten. Stability is always important. I haven't faced any issues with the Infinity Portal in the last six or seven years."

"It can scale from 100 to 10,000. There's no problem with the scalability.""It has been scalable.""Some of the features that are highly appreciated are its robust data loss prevention capabilities, flexible deployment options, and the ability to monitor data transfer across multiple vectors.""The feature we call desktop recording is the most valuable aspect of the solution. Not only can we collect data from the user's usage, but we also capture his screenshots when he is trying to steal the data.""We have been able to monitor access to files from each of our workstations.""In Digital Guardian, they have the cloud correlation servers that give you visibility work like EBR and the correlation server works very well for security analysis.""I like the solution's adaptive inspection and container inspection.""The most valuable feature of Digital Guardian is its reputation. They have scored high on the Gartner Magic Quadrant."

Cons
"The licensing model for Check Point Infinity is not clear.""While Check Point Infinity is a robust and innovative solution, some areas could benefit from improvement. One area is the user-friendly integration of privacy-focused features.""One of the main improvements that can be made is the latency in the portal.""The endpoint solutions offered by Check Point are not prominent enough in the market due to Check Point's poor marketing efforts.""I think that the pricing for the Check Point products should be reconsidered, as we found it to be quite expensive to purchase and to maintain.""It seems that the performance varies, likely influenced by the client's size and the provisioning of resources.""Check Point Infinity is not compatible with Windows 8.""We need improvement around the Smart-1 cloud solution."

More Check Point Infinity Cons →

"It would be helpful if there was an on-premise version of the solution for companies that cannot use the cloud, such as government sectors.""Some features on Mac and Linux are not complete currently. For example, some device control features haven't been transferred over to the other systems. If they could have their Windows features also available on Mac and Linux, that would be perfect. Some of our customers have a Mac environment for their RD environment. Having the solution fully capable of handling everything in a Mac environment is crucial.""The solution has complexities around policy creation and deployment.""There are a lot of issues with the current version of the Endpoint agent. It's not stable, it's resource-consuming, and there are some performance issues. If they could improve the stability of the agent it would be great.""Digital Guardian is an excellent solution but our experience with the partner has been the most horrible experience we have ever had with any partner.""If the client uses Windows 10 or 11 and Microsoft updates the operating system's version, Digital Guardian must update their product to match compatibility.""Technical support could be better.""The initial setup is a bit more complex than other solutions."

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "Choosing the correct set of licenses is essential because, without the additional software blade licenses, the Check Point gateways are just a stateful firewall."
  • "Check Point should provide an enterprise-wide license where the organization should be provided free hand of using any license or services for an agreed period of time (EULA)."
  • "The pricing of Check Point Infinity could be better. There is a license needed to use the solution and we pay annually."
  • "The product has good pricing considering the features and a global approach."
  • "I rate the product's price a six on a scale of one to ten, where one is cheap, and ten is expensive."
  • "The flexibility in pricing is advantageous, and being a special partner allows for negotiating special rates based on the project requirements."
  • "While the initial payment might be perceived as relatively higher, the absence of hidden supplementing charges contributes to a straightforward and clear pricing model. The pricing is cheap and moderate."
  • "When it comes to price, the paramount consideration is the strength of the security. If the security measures provided by the product, such as Check Point Infinity, are robust and meet our requirements, price becomes a secondary concern."
  • More Check Point Infinity Pricing and Cost Advice →

  • "Digital Guardian has both, subscription and perpetual licenses, but I think when everything (all technologies) will go to the cloud they will only offer subscriptions."
  • "If I compare Digital Guardian with Symantec, the license cost is lower, but McAfee can be cheaper than Digital Guardian. It depends on how many licenses you plan to buy and how big the project is. The cost is not so high as Symantec, but not as cheap as McAfee. They can easily sell the solution for price."
  • "The price of Digital Guardian is expensive."
  • "The cost was around $300,000."
  • "The price of Digital Guardian is on the higher end compared to other vendors."
  • "I rate the solution's pricing an eight out of ten because Digital Guardian is expensive."
