"It is a good-to-use tool that is also flexible."
"All the features that we subscribe to from CloudGuard NGTP are valuable. All the threat prevention and access control features give us the network security that we expect."
"The most valuable features are the VPN Blade, IPS Blade, the URL filtering, and the Applications Control Blade."
"Now, we can filter which websites users can access and block categories that are a risk. For example, we can block social media and gambling sites. This has helped to decrease the risk of access to malicious content on the internet."
"Its integration and use of features, such as advanced threat prevention, have helped us a lot with malware prevention and also with avoiding exposure to false positives."
"SSL/TLS traffic inspection features are used for advanced threat prevention against secure SSL traffic."
"The tool's most valuable features are inspecting internet traffic and IPS. We can manage the firewall using shared policies from a single management server."
"The ease of administration with the cloud management extension and the cloud licensing model is valuable."
"It has improved functions by bringing us complete security on our clients' virtual environment."
"The tool provides information on server activities and hosts."
"The initial setup was straightforward and we didn't have any problem with it."
"The most valuable feature of this solution is the virtual path function, which is the reason we chose to implement it."
"We use the solution to detect malicious threats, secure the endpoints, and disable the UFT."
"The agentless protection is very nice in Trend Micro."
"I switched to Trend Micro because of its good marketing techniques."
"The traceback feature in XDR is amazing. You can trace back an attack. You can playback where an attack actually occurred and see how the attacker moved. We can easily show this to management, and it makes it easy to make them understand and convince them, which is the best thing."
"Lacks the ability to integrate with other security solutions."
"The cost needs improvement as it is currently quite expensive."
"CloudGuard Network Security's pricing is expensive. We have encountered issues with its licensing."
"Check Point CloudGuard Network Security could improve by making it easier to configure."
"While Check Point does offer some VWAN offerings, they appear to be more static and less tailored to cloud-native environments compared to Palo Alto's dynamic and flexible approach."
"What I would like for future updates would be faster updates to apply, and perhaps a greater presence in the local language for the regions of Latin America."
"I think they have pretty much mastered what can be done. There are some nuances like when you fail over from one cluster member to the other, the external IP address takes about two minutes to fail over."
"The operations require skilled manpower with extended experience of working with networking systems for better results."
"The implementation can be inflexible and not easy, as it requires knowledge of things like virtualization and administration on Windows."
"What this product lacks at this stage is the ability to have automated workbooks to do the response. At this stage, the response is more manual, and it is not automated. If there is a response functionality in Deep Security, similar to what we have in EDR these days, to automatically respond to some of the threats, it would be cool. So, we'd like to have an automated response. There should be a response functionality."
"Installation and operations may have issues on some machines owing to their configuration of the network cards as the product is a DPI driver."
"The price could be reduced."
"The tool should integrate SIM functionality. It should also improve customer support."
"Pricing is on the expensive side and could be more affordable. The technical support for Trend Micro Deep Security also needs improvement."
"I would like to see better pricing. The pricing could be lower."
"It should have XDR and EDR integration. It would be nice if they can tie it up with an XDR or EDR."
