We performed a comparison between Check Point Harmony Endpoint and Trend Micro Deep Security based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out what your peers are saying about Microsoft, SentinelOne, CrowdStrike and others in Endpoint Protection Platform (EPP)."The features that I have found most valuable are the ability to customize it and to reduce its size. It lets you run in a very small window in terms of memory and resources on legacy cash registers."
"The most valuable feature is the analysis, because of the beta structure."
"The product detects and blocks threats and is more proactive than firewalls."
"Having all monitoring, response, tracking, and mitigation tools in one dashboard provides our analysts and SOC team with a comprehensive view at a glance."
"The ease of deployment and configuration is valuable. It's very easy compared to other vendors like Sophos. Sophos' configuration is complex. Fortinet is a lot easier to understand. You don't need a lot of admin knowledge to do the configuration."
"It is very easy to set up. I would rate my experience with the initial setup a ten out of ten, with ten being very easy to set up."
"This is stable and scalable."
"Fortinet has helped free up around 20 percent of our staff's time to help us out."
"The zero-day threat prevention is excellent."
"Few solutions on the market perform tasks as efficiently as those performed and executed by Check Point Harmony Endpoint."
"It is very powerful tooling that can be tuned a lot."
"It offers complete endpoint protection for all assets."
"I have found the Zero phishing and IPS features the most useful in Check Point Harmony Endpoint. Additionally, threat emulation sandboxing is effective."
"It's easy to scale as needed."
"The end-user facilities for managing the tool are good."
"It has a great ability to detect threats and keep us safe."
"Virtual patching is a wonderful feature where we do a recommendation scan and an internal assessment on the server, and it updates the IPS signatures to block any attack. I have seen instances where it has prevented attacks on the end-of-support servers such as 2018 R2, and many years ago, even 2007 servers that were end-of-support. It certainly helped there."
"You can scale the solution to different versions."
"The agentless protection is very nice in Trend Micro."
"Some of the main features of this solution are it is reliable and can be used in small to large size businesses."
"Deep Security enables us to bridge the gap between patching windows using the Virtual Patching feature. This allows us to make sure full patching is tested properly in our testing environments before rollout."
"It provides a comprehensive feature set and a strong security baseline for us with integrations into other security tools."
"The integration options of Trend Micro Deep Security have been particularly valuable."
"There are a good signature set and a high rate of detection."
"Intelligence aspects need improvement"
"They can include the automation for the realtime updates. We have a network infrastructure with remote sites. Whenever they send updates, they are not automated. We have to go into the console and push those updates. I wish it was more automated. The update file is currently around 31 MB. It could be smaller."
"There's room for improvement in the quick response time and technical support for integration issues, especially when dealing with multiple vendors."
"The security should be strong for the cloud. Some applications are on-prem and some are on the cloud. Fortinet should also have strong security for the cloud. There should be more security for the cloud."
"I haven't seen the use of AI in the solution."
"Detections could be improved."
"The only minor concern is occasional interference with desired programs."
"I would like the solution to extend beyond endpoint protection and include other attack surfaces such as other network components."
"The solutions agent could have better performance, it is a little slow sometimes."
"The solution can be made lightweight in order to keep the systems more effective during the background operations of the scanning and security checks."
"The software requires considerable resources and can strain less powerful computers."
"The heartbeat interval must be improved."
"An additional feature I would like to see involves the VPN."
"Configuration with some applications did not take place effectively due to setup complications."
"As of now, product-wise, we haven't found any major concern that needs to improve, although it does not support full MDM and this is something that should be there."
"Areas that have room for improvement are the scope of the product and, while I think the support is good, they can improve support as well."
"I would like to see an EDR function for the servers, as that would be useful for us."
"Enhancements in agent performance are needed, specifically in reducing server utilization during scanning."
"The licensing structure could improve."
"Trend Micro is not government certified or federal complaint. If they could become compliant/certified, this would make it easier for us to use it for our government projects."
"There is room for improvement with Trend Micro Deep Security, as there are instances where installations may need to be redone. There seem to be glitches when working with older Windows servers, such as those from 2003 or 2005, requiring us to uninstall and reinstall the product to resolve the issue."
"I've not worked with CrowdStrike Falcon, but one of our customers also had CrowdStrike Falcon on some of the devices. I was only supporting Trend Micro. They had a ransomware attack, but Trend Micro didn't detect that particular ransomware attack, whereas CrowdStrike did."
"When implementing this solution, sometimes we have challenges with SQL migration."
"There should be more tools to trace back. Some sort of module needs to be included to attach all the things. It should be more stable, and the traceback feature should be improved. There were cases when we got virtual analyzer or CMC errors. We got false-positive malware notifications, but we couldn't trace them. I raised a case with Trend Micro two or three times, but they couldn't resolve it. Their support should be improved in terms of technical abilities to troubleshoot complex issues. They should be more knowledgeable."
