"When it comes to Check Point Quantum SASE, though the OEM provides security, it is not 100 percent full-fledged to meet the requirements from the customers' end."
"My customers want more remote functionality. They need another routing option after they connect to the enterprise intranet. For example, let's say a user tries to connect to a remote branch office and headquarters through Harmony Connect. They need a local breakout after connecting to the headquarters, especially in China. They need to put local breakout in the Chinese internet. The current version cannot do something like this."
"The product needs to work on the integration of alerts with different SIEM or security solutions."
"The overall UI could be improved and updated to bring a simpler feel to the application."
"Providing USB control in a Linux environment will give more control over data security."
"Automation and scalability are areas where the solution lacks and needs to improve."
"More report and alert options would be useful."
"As it is a new market solution, I still face some instabilities in access at certain times of the day when I have more than 150 users using it simultaneously."
