"The IPSec VPN, Mobile Access, and Identity Awareness are three of the blades with which we have been working with since the pandemic. This has given us great mobility, making our network more dynamic."
"The ability to create your trigger data domains is the solution's most valuable feature."
"Setting policies allow, block, and limit users' access."
"Check Point Remote Access VPN is a stable solution."
"The biggest advantage of Check Point Remote Access VPN is that we already use the Check Point firewall. We only needed to enable the feature and do the configuration in order to enable the VPN feature. We didn't need to buy or manage new hardware. This was a big advantage."
"It offers a simple configuration and setup."
"The VPN hides your IP address and encrypts your online traffic and it essentially ensures that your fingerprints cannot be traced on the Internet."
"RDM has enabled me to do most of my work in one place. This helps me be able to have an RDP session open to a server in one tab and an SSH session open to a VMware host in another."
"Initial setup was very straightforward."
"It really helps to have all the data already pre-entered and all I have to do is enter the password."
"One credential can be used to access VPN, RDS, and more."
"It saves a lot of time for all of our IT staff from having to just use the RDP Windows client and reenter each server every time we access a different system."
"The ability to have all the connection information in one location saves so much time from trying to manage the same information across different applications."
"Makes me instantly more focused on resolving the issue rather than getting to the issue."
"By integrating all our connections previously spread across multiple locations, a lot of time has been saved."
"Check Point Remote Access VPN handles up to a hundred megabytes for clients, but I want it to be able to handle up to one gigabyte."
"In my organization, there aren't Linux users, however, I know it has difficulties offering secure access for customers who use this operating system."
"The cost of maintenance is high compared to most products in the market."
"Improvements for Check Point Remote Access VPN could include enhancing mobile connectivity for a smoother user experience."
"There is always room for innovation and the addition of new features."
"We'd like to integrate Check Point into the Remote Access VPN solution and have the ability to integrate multiple devices as access points through the solution."
"There were some issues with automation and instability."
"Bug Fixes and enhancement requests should be remediated earlier."
"The only complaint I have heard is there are too many updates. Each time there is an update (the app prompts to upgrade), it can be time consuming, especially when sometimes there are multiple updates per week."
"If there was a way to streamline the process, it would make it nice."
"Sometimes when updating, the install window is on top of the prompt to close the application."
"On complex setups, I actually needed to reach out to support to get it working correctly."
"There are always bugs to squash, beyond that, it is really kind of difficult for new users to discover and use many of the features due to the bewildering array of choices and ways to do things."
"The filing system of connections is a little clunky, but is completely functional."
"Security roles could be improved, especially by enabling renaming of a role."
"The RDM client (.NET issue, actually) can stall or lock up while it clears communication threads to the server."
