CloudGuard Network Security Review

  • February 22, 2022
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I like this product from checkpoint to use the same kind of protection that we use on the firewall, such as IPS protection and antivirus protection. The product is very user-friendly. This product is easy to implement and easy to use. Another great feature is deep traffic analysis and a comprehensive reporting solution for presenting to the board.
What do you dislike about the product?
I don't have any issue with this product.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
CloudGuard provides the best security for networks. The brand is well known in the security industry, so we can easily trust on that. This product has excellent policy management and central control.

CloudGuard is a great option for cloud hosted firewall

  • February 03, 2022
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Very good intrusion and threat detection. Integrates well with the cloud we use (Azure) and works well at local branches. Flexible enough to deploy from large centralized data centers to IoT/OT devices to local branches. Logging is exceptional and one of the best experiences I have noticed in this space.
What do you dislike about the product?
Expensive -- depending on requirements. Experience is disjointed at times and you can tell everything hasn't been fully integrated in smart console. Policy creation and editing is tedious and difficult to see.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
CheckPoint CloudGuard is an excellent choice for organizations that need a cloud-based firewall solution. I had a great experience from contract negotiation to implementation. Support was excellent, consulting is top-notch, and the product speaks for itself. We used this solution exclusively with Azure.

Visibility is everything !

  • September 30, 2021
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
As we all agree Cloud is complex enough , security must be simple as much as it could be . With CloudGuard solution , I keep my asset secured while maintaining the visibility of my traffic flows. Easy to add rules , managing the policies and even sharing them between my GWs.
What do you dislike about the product?
Looking forward to have policy recommendations that can advise me to delete unused objects or to have specific object recommendation to use instead of "Any" .
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Way better to use NGFW technologies than to use security products of cloud vendors. Integrated strong 0.day prevention capabilities are awasome.
