The company handles confidential information, such as clients' financial data, and it is important to keep that information secure to comply with certain regulations.

One of the important challenges was to counteract the amount of phishing, ransomware attacks, and accidental leaks of information through email and collaboration applications.

We did not have a tool that would provide this security, so we chose to look for one and apply it to our environment.

The company handles a large amount of client information, some of which is confidential, including account numbers and sensitive information. This tool provides us with the features to meet the needs we have.

One of these features is real-time threat prevention. It uses advanced analytics to detect and block malicious emails, phishing, and unwanted content before they reach inboxes. It also has DLP. This helps prevent the leak of information. In this way, we can reduce vulnerabilities.

The tool has many important features. Some of them are very valuable.

One of the most valuable is real-time prevention, which constantly analyzes and provides results. The leak control that comes with DLP is excellent.

It provides us with a more centralized management where we can monitor everything that happens in our environment and in this way, can manage the security policies necessary for our organization in real time.

It is fast and quite effective in terms of preventing any security incidents.

The product is a very effective tool. It provides a lot of security to ensure the confidentiality of the information.

Although it has good characteristics, it should improve the graphical interface and the latency that it sometimes presents.

They should also improve the quality of technical support since, in the last few years, they have lowered the quality of SLA response and do not provide concise solutions.

They should also generate a knowledge base where the unified information or the most common errors are found so as not to depend so much on support.

I have experience using the solution for four years.

The stability presents as efficient.

The scalability is new; it is multi-cloud.

The experience has not been very good since we have had problems with the SLA.

There was no previous solution in the organization.

The initial implementation is complicated when you do not have experience with said tool.

It was implemented with the seller and his engineer in charge, which was very fast and friendly.

The investment is somewhat high. However, it will provide security for all customer information.

The tool is somewhat competitive with the others on the market. The installation has an average learning curve.

Several solutions were evaluated, such as Microsoft Defender for Office 365, Proofpoint Email Protection, and Cisco Secure Email.

It is an excellent tool for information security. Before acquiring it, you must analyze whether it meets company needs.

We use the solution for preventing malicious emails that we're getting through Google's built-in spam filters. The amount of spam and phishing had greatly increased at our organization and we needed a solution implemented fast.

Check Point was really quick to integrate and implement and instantly started providing value. The reporting we got during our trial helped to quantify the value to the executive team, in particular, the report that shows what Check Point caught items that Google's spam filters would've let through.

The amount of spam and phishing getting through to end users has reduced drastically.

We are also now able to advertise how many malicious emails we get and how it is constantly increasing as we grow. This shows our users how valuable a solution like this is and they appreciate that sometimes it may get a false positive.

We're abe to show to users why emails are quarantined - which has helped to train them on what to look out for if they do receive a suspicious email. We have also improved our reporting process and notifications to admins.

First and foremost, Check Point's ability to detect malicious emails and the filters they put in place are a big improvement on the built-in Google Workspace solution.

Being able to mass quarantine and remove emails from end users' mailboxes has become extremely important to us as we have grown in size. Admins can be notified as soon as a suspicious email arrives in bulk mailboxes and can act extremely quickly. This has even helped us to notify partners that they had been breached before they knew themselves.

There are a few features that are more geared towards Microsoft users rather than Google, for example, user-reported phishing. It's not fully integrated with Google Workspace, and the statistics don't update in real-time.

We appreciate that Microsoft has the larger market share, and Check Point has been improving its Google integration. However, more advancements would be appreciated. That being said, the "What Google wouldn't have caught" report was extremely valuable to us in showing value.

I've used the solution for nine months.

We evaluated other solutions, such as Mimecast, Proofpoint, and Abnormal.

Our team primarily uses Google Workspace for email, so we were looking for a solution that could protect us from spam, phishing attacks, and other email threats.

Harmony Email fits the bill perfectly because it's an API-based product that doesn't require any MX record or other configuration changes. It's also very easy to use and manage, even for non-technical users.

I appreciate the ease of deployment and the intuitive dashboard. Even someone with basic IT knowledge can easily understand the dashboard and identify potential threats. With one hour of training, anyone can effectively use this product.

There are a few areas for improvement. One is the occasional sluggishness or latency, which is likely due to the cloud-based nature of the solution. So, the performance can be better.

Additionally, while Harmony Email can detect phishing emails that Google has missed, it would be even better if it could automatically quarantine or delete these emails.

Since we use multiple Google Workspace accounts across three separate domains, it would be incredibly helpful if Check Point Harmony Email could provide a single dashboard that consolidates all of this information.

Additionally, Harmony Email should support other email providers beyond Microsoft and Google, as I also use Joho with over a thousand email IDs.

Having a unified dashboard and expanding support to other email providers would significantly enhance the product's usability for many users.

Currently, I have to rely on a separate gateway solution, like Cisco, to protect my Joho emails. It would be much more convenient if Harmony Email could handle all of my email protection needs.

I've been using Harmony Email for about four or five months now.

It is cloud-based, so the performance is low. I would rate the stability an eight out of ten. It is stable but the performance is low.

I would rate the scalability an eight out of ten. We have 300+ end users using this solution.

The customer service and support are not very prompt like SonicWall and other vendors in the same space. Perhaps because Check Point is not as prominent in my region, their SLA is not terrible. It's just not very effective.

For instance, if I need support within 15 or 30 minutes, it won't happen. It could take up to four hours.

I initially started with Cisco Gateway. However, due to ongoing changes, we would have needed to modify MX records or other settings, making the configuration more complex.

As a result, we decided to try Check Point Harmony Email and Collaboration, and after conducting a proof of concept (POC), we decided to deploy it. We also checked Barracuda.

So, we chose Check Point over Barracuda during the POC. The primary reason was that Check Point Harmony Email is easy to configure and requires no MX record changes.

Additionally, it's more effective because it's an AI-based solution. It provides insights into the origin of emails, the connection between the sender and receiver, their previous email history, and the frequency of their communication. These features are unique to Check Point Harmony Email and Collaboration.

The initial setup is very simple because only API configuration was there. We provide a user and password on our dashboard, and we can use it remotely.

It took only 10 to 15 minutes to deploy. Initially, it takes time to collect the data and create timelines. The solution doesn't require any maintenance.

The pricing is in the middle. Check Point's pricing is not the highest in the competitive market.

It's more expensive than Barracuda but less expensive than Cisco. So, I would give it a rating of six out of ten, where one is expensive and ten is cheap.

Overall, I would rate the solution an eight out of ten.

We use the product for endpoint security features.

The product's environment is easy to work and comprehensive.

The product's pricing needs improvement.

We have Check Point Harmony Email & Collaboration for five months.

The product is stable.

We deploy it on the cloud; we use an infinity portal for the process. It takes a day to complete.

We implement the product with the help of an in-house specialist in our company.

The product is expensive. I rate its pricing a seven or eight. There is room for improvement.

I rate CheckPoint Harmony Email & Collaboration a nine out of ten. Even though it is an expensive product, it works efficiently. I advise others to do industry-related research and evaluate the products to suit business requirements regarding pricing and the number of users.

We use the solution to prevent any phishing emails from reaching out to the end users. We also use it for URL protection and DLP, to protect the end users from ransomware attacks, and to avoid any issues that halt business activities.

We used to have another solution for email security and we used to find so many issues while using it. We could not stop some phishing emails from getting into the user's mailbox and were worried about losing data. We had to work on fine-tuning the solution all the time to avoid the issues. We came to know about Check Point and wanted to try for email security.

We have blocked more phishing emails since we started using Check Point. The solution works brilliantly in filtering and the amount of information provided is unmatched and helped us in various ways.

The Explore page provides multiple options for searching for emails and other information. Quarantine/removing from Quarantine has become so easy with search options

The dashboard provides information to investigate more about malicious activity and blocked emails.

Check Point has become our go-to solution for most of our issues.

We like the email search options, availability of information on various aspects, algorithms, and AI models that provide pretty useful data - and the list goes on!

The email search/explore option helped us find the required emails and logs easily with multiple filters to use.

Information provided in each and every email is very useful for investigating any activity. We do not have to use multiple websites for that information since everything is provided in Check Point itself.

AI-based models and algorithms provide more accurate and useful information.

It would be good to have the option to export the respective record data from dashboards or logs to .csv or other files. That will help in creating more filters and analyzing the data.

Providing more Training videos and documentation will be helpful for beginners to understand how checkpoint works.

I've used the solution for the past eight months.

We used some other email security tools and we used to have multiple issues with email filtering and available information. We do not see any of those issues after using Check Point.

We are good with the licensing.

We directly chose Check Point since we could not find any better alternative.

It is the perfect one-stop solution for securing the organization!

We use the solution for SaaS protection for 10,000 Gsuite users. How collaborators process data with sensitive information and information leaks was a constant concern. The collaboration solution allows you to have visibility of the entire SaaS environment and create customized security profiles to give optimal treatment to the information. This solution allows you to have very granular visibility at all times; this is of utmost importance as it allows you to make immediate and precise decisions about the security environment.

This solution has allowed us to have visibility of the security environment for the business and has allowed us to have specific treatment by users, user groups, and departments of the information that is processed. This allows users to be certain that their information is protected. Certain security problems were detected. Without this solution at the SaaS level would have been impossible to detect so there has been an improvement in the treatment of the attack surface and the protection of valuable data.

There are several features that were considered valuable. For example, the fact that the installation and integration of the solution with SaaS tools were very fast and highly recognized by SaaS administrators. I like the fact that having granular information about the potential threats is received in email. Being able to protect information repositories was of great interest to decision-makers. It was also possible to implement an entire environment in record time. Having this information allowed us to better model the attacking surface.

They should consider a module that allows the customizing of reports so we can generate executive information for the client (to explain in simple language the general security situation in the SaaS environment).

Reports should be presented in such a way that they are readable by non-technical work groups who are involved in information protection and who may misread the information on the dashboard and make incorrect decisions.

I've used the solution for four months.

The product is very stable; it is a cloud solution and we have not had any operational incidents.

The solution is very scalable since you only have to add licenses.

They offer good support; you have several support options depending on the SLA you need.

The setup is very straightforward and very fast; it took about 20 minutes.

The setup involved a mix of personnel and Check Point SE are experts in the area of ​​security.

The setup was very fast; the license scheme was very easy to understand.

We also evaluated the PAN solution and Fortinet.

I consider it to be a cost-effective solution that focuses on security and is a highly recommended and easy-to-use option.

We use the solution for the protection of email from phishing attacks, spam, and malicious email-related activities.

It detects and blocks the most advanced phishing attacks across inbound, outbound, and internal communications, in real-time, before the attack succeeds.

The solution is used for email protection, providing IT administrators with a great amount of information about possible attacks faced by the organization, and logins by users.

It also has a high level of detail in its reports, facilitating the management and detection of possible threats to the security of the organization.

With the addition of the DMARC module, it makes it much easier to monitor the security policies applied and provides visual information about the type of traffic received, avoiding domain spoofing.

The number of phishing and spam emails has decreased and email security has improved by 80%. The IT team has noticed a great improvement in the number of emails received and a decrease in attacks. The helpful alerts generated by HEC facilitate the management and response.

Thanks to its dashboard, it displays detailed information about detected activities, suspicious logins, span deletions, or phishing detected and blocked with a high level of detail. The level of reporting detail facilitates threat management; now the organization has an additional layer of protection for end users.

The ease of management and intuitive administration are excellent. Thanks to its dashboard, the most valuable thing is the detection capability provided by this solution. The level of detail offered by Harmony is unique, to the point of showing the differences between what is detected by Office 365 and what is detected by HEC. The organization relies on this email security solution and facilitates the protection of all end users, decreasing security breaches by malicious actors.

The integration with Gsuite could be improved, especially when reporting the amount of emails it manages to filter. It could be improved to obtain a greater level of detail, unlike Office 365, which offers an extreme level of detail and facilitates the management and comparison of what is happening with respect to the mail. Its integration with Gsuite is simpler and has that point against it, however high levels of detail can be obtained in the reports of the solution. On the other hand, the ease of administration and threat detection capabilities are its strong points, and it stands out from other solutions that I have had the opportunity to test before.

Currently, this solution has been used for the last tree years.
