Effective web filtering blocks and reports dodgy websites quickly
What is our primary use case?
The primary use case was web filtering. My organization used Forcepoint ONE for blocking and reporting on websites.
What is most valuable?
The most valuable feature was the website blocking capability, which allowed me to quickly block any dodgy websites. It was also effective at reporting the same. The product was effective for these uses.
What needs improvement?
There is room for improvement in making the reporting closer to real-time, ideally around five or ten minutes instead of half an hour. The interface could also be updated as it was quite dated.
For how long have I used the solution?
I used Forcepoint ONE for about seven years.
What do I think about the stability of the solution?
I never needed to call technical support, which indicates the product was pretty stable.
What do I think about the scalability of the solution?
The product was scalable for the needs of my organization, although we did not experience growth during that time.
How are customer service and support?
I never needed to call technical support, so I experienced no issues with customer service.
How would you rate customer service and support?
Neutral
Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?
I used Forcepoint before, but it was primarily for web filtering. The parent company that I was a part of was using it before we split off.
How was the initial setup?
The product was already live when I took it over, so I did not take part in the initial setup.
What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?
The licensing and pricing were fine with no issues. I took over from somebody else, and it stayed as it was until we rebuilt and moved to the cloud.
What other advice do I have?
I am a customer. Based on my experience, I would give it an eight out of ten. I would recommend Forcepoint ONE for relatively small companies since it worked fine for us. The client was reliable once the implementation settled down.
Which deployment model are you using for this solution?
Public Cloud
If public cloud, private cloud, or hybrid cloud, which cloud provider do you use?

Web access categories are effectively controlled while room exists to resolve specific access needs
What is our primary use case?
I use the solution as a secure web gateway, similar to a proxy, to control access to the Internet for users. It is implemented on our equipment, such as laptops, to block certain categories like gambling and games. This is particularly important in the financial services industry where clients access the Internet through our network.
What is most valuable?
The control of web access by category is very effective. For example, I can access social networks but block specific platforms like Instagram and Facebook while allowing access to LinkedIn, a professional network. This helps me manage what users can access efficiently. The experience has generally been good, especially with how I can control web categories and give access to clients. It also helps me block tweets or other unwanted content.
What needs improvement?
I have some requirements that the solution cannot currently fulfill. For example, I need control over access to web WhatsApp, which the solution cannot resolve yet.
Additionally, I need to control specific functionalities within certain applications, like preventing the transfer of certain file types. This requirement is not yet resolved.
For how long have I used the solution?
I have had the solution for around one year. Previously, I used an on-premises version of the same product. Last year, I migrated the service to the cloud for Forcepoint ONE web security.
How are customer service and support?
Customer service and tech support are rated eight out of ten. They are responsive and assist me with creating cases for any complex issues.
How would you rate customer service and support?
Positive
Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?
I previously used a solution on-premises with the same product, the first one web, before migrating to the cloud-based Forcepoint ONE.
How was the initial setup?
The service setup was straightforward and very easy, partly because of my prior experience with the on-premises solution.
I would rate the ease of setup as eight out of ten.
What about the implementation team?
I have a distributor here who helps with some requirements. The personnel is efficient, and I do not encounter problems with that.
What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?
The pricing is very good and cheaper than other solutions like Netskope and Forcepoint.
Which other solutions did I evaluate?
I have compared it to Netskope. Netskope allows certain controls like blocking WhatsApp and downloading restrictions, which are requirements for my enterprise.
What other advice do I have?
My overall rating for Forcepoint ONE is closer to six than seven, because of some initial setup troubles and unresolved requirements regarding WhatsApp. I recommend it as a solution that works well, however, Forcepoint needs to communicate more efficiently with its clients about changes and recommendations.
I would rate the overall solution six out of ten.
Which deployment model are you using for this solution?

It is quite easy to deploy because it is cloud based, which makes it easy to grow with the organization, and the implementation into the existing ecosystem was straightforward…Not to mention, the user interface is easy to understand which translates into better control of the security efforts.

There are also some advanced options that might require a little training for new users due to the learning curve. But once you’re able to actually use it, it’s a great additional tool in the overall security arsenal.
