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 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."
"The product detects and blocks threats and is more proactive than firewalls."
"The product's initial setup phase is very easy."
"The setup is pretty simple."
"It is a scalable solution...The initial setup of Fortinet FortiEDR was straightforward."
"This is stable and scalable."
"Ability to get forensics details and also memory exfiltration."
"The most valuable feature is the analysis, because of the beta structure."
"It's a scalable product as it is a cloud offering."
"The level of security and visibility they provide is great and it is very easy to configure and maintain."
"When sending emails to my colleagues, it detects any virus and blocks any spam that may be shared."
"The biggest value we found was ease of deployment. I haven't really used it much, so I can't really comment beyond that. I haven't used it much, but it's working."
"We were under an attack in our environment, and the Check Point response was good because we didn't lose anything."
"It has improved the detection of malware."
"The tool minimizes the impact of a breach with autonomous detection and response."
"It is minimally invasive. From a single installer, the equipment is protected and secured."
"It serves its purpose and works well."
"The most valuable feature of this solution is the virtual path function, which is the reason we chose to implement it."
"You can scale the solution to different versions."
"Deep Security provides us with a lot of reassurance about security threats. You don't have to worry about a patch not being there in the software. You're confident that all the patches and vulnerabilities are taken care of."
"The solution has a low footprint and does not have a lot of impact on the host."
"Some of the main features of this solution are it is reliable and can be used in small to large size businesses."
"I like the anti-malware features."
"The traceback feature in XDR is amazing. You can trace back an attack. You can playback where an attack actually occurred and see how the attacker moved. We can easily show this to management, and it makes it easy to make them understand and convince them, which is the best thing."
"There's room for improvement in the quick response time and technical support for integration issues, especially when dealing with multiple vendors."
"To improve Fortinet, we need to see more features and technology areas at the endpoint level introduced."
"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."
"It takes about two business days for initial support, which is too slow in urgent situations."
"The solution's installation from a central installation server could be improved because the engineers had a little bit of trouble getting it installed from a central location."
"Once, we had an event that was locked and blocked, but information about it came to us two or three days later."
"The support needs improvement."
"The EDR console should have more extensive reporting. You shouldn't need to purchase FortiAnalyzer. It should be included in the EDR part. The security adviser cloud platform could be improved with more options for exclusive or intensive rules for devices."
"Endpoint vulnerability management is one of the modules I believe is missing and it is something that is required."
"Check Point Harmony Endpoint could improve mobile device management (MDM)."
"There are still functionalities that I have not been able to fully test and I would like to spend more time using the tool before offering an opinion to the IT Central community on this point."
"The solutions agent could have better performance, it is a little slow sometimes."
"I have a few issues when attempting to install Harmony on some of the machines."
"We would like to have the ability to stop and restart the service remotely, which is something that we can do easily with Symantec but have a hard time with when using Check Point."
"The patch management and upgrades are not timely."
"I would like to see support for a policy in the appliance that will refuse to create a connection if it does not detect an active virus scanner."
"Another issue is if I want to suggest this solution to a customer, we won't get the pricing immediately, which is a major problem."
"The implementation can be inflexible and not easy, as it requires knowledge of things like virtualization and administration on Windows."
"The situation with the currency in Turkey makes this solution a little bit on the expensive side, and if it were lowered then it would be more competitive."
"The setup is fairly complex. The deployment took around two months."
"As for what could be improved, I think it should come with an XDR facility without any extra cost. They're always releasing new features, but we need to pay extra for them."
"I would rate tech support in the range of six to eight out of 10. Time to provide solution could be improved."
"It would be helpful if they could send emails notifying their users about the recommended upgraded versions to address the newly discovered vulnerabilities."
"The problem with this solution is that if you go on large sites you have to have an external database, which would increase the cost."
