Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"The most valuable feature of Check Point SandBlast Network is the sandboxing of PDF and Microsoft system files.""Very few false positives are detected, which gives the confidence to raise flags when needed, ensuring the IT department is aware of threats and acting fast.""You do not need to risk your network by using the in-line sandbox.""It saves time with us trying to do the analysis. We use it to try to find out how something got into the network. We use it to stop something before it ever gets in.""The product gives us advanced protection, including artificial intelligence and machine learning technologies and services.""We didn't really have any IPS before. So, Check Point has improved our security posture. People get used to doing things certain ways, which might not be the best or most secure way, and they can't do that now, which just requires more education of the user base. With the endpoint client, we've started to use Check Point for remote access.""It provides a high rate of catching the zero-day advanced threats.""In terms of the scalability, it's expandable across the cloud."

"The most valuable features are the administration console and its detection and response module.""It is very scalable.""It is stable and reliable.""I recommend this solution because of its ease of use.""It stops in excess of twenty-five malware events per month, all of which could be critical to the business.""Its greatest strength is the DXL client which can rapidly disseminate attack information to all clients via the McAfee Agent instead of going through the ePO server.""Provides good exfiltration, and is an all-in-one product."

Cons
"Today, we have it as part of a solution or a package. However, we'd like there to be a way where we can have the solution's features available to us in a cheaper way in the future.""The technical support could use some work, but it's okay. It's a little bit of a tedious process to get through.""There is a limit on the number of files that can be scanned in real-time, which could lead to us being found with our guard down on a high-traffic day.""I would like if it could emulate bigger files and somehow improve this usability. I don't know if this would be possible. However, if it was able to scan or emulate bigger files, then it would be safer for a company using it.""The guides or best practices of Check Point are difficult to find for the client. Therefore, it is sometimes difficult to make better implementations.""Most of the time stability is okay, but sometimes, we're not able to contact the cloud. It won't last for long. The product could be faster.""At the support level, they could improve the attention times and have the resolution of cases happen a little faster.""The initial setup was complex because of the lack of information from the consultant."

"I would like to see future versions of the solution incorporate artificial intelligence technology.""Make the ATD system a part of the whole product and take the whole thing onto the cloud. While it is there already, it is not to the same level as the on-premise version.""We'd like them to be better at dealing with script threats.""The initial setup was industry standard complex. It takes awhile and has a lot of planning involved. It could be simplified with product redesign.""Lacks remote capabilities not dependent on the internet.""There could be a tool that automatically updates all-new Microsoft IPs, which are available for free to connect to the client.""This solution needs to be made "cloud ready"."

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "We have seen ROI."
  • "We would like to try the Threat Extraction blade, but you need to buy a license. Check Point is expensive. I would like to buy things, but I would need the funding."
  • "Choosing the correct set of licenses is essential because, without the additional software blade licenses, the Check Point gateways are just a stateful firewall."
  • "I think the overall cost for introducing Check Point with SandBlast was reasonable and competitive in the market."
  • "The cost is not significantly high and it can be negotiated during any purchase of NGFW."
  • "The cost of Check Point SandBlast Network is annually, and there is only a standard license."
  • "The pricing is quite effective, not excessively high. On a scale of one to ten, where ten is the highest price, I rate the pricing a nine."
