We performed a comparison between Check Point Quantum SASE and Perimeter 81 based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Secure Access Service Edge (SASE) solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The protection offered by the product is the most valuable feature. It detects vulnerabilities or traps on our users' phones and then prompts them to clean up their devices. Tools we used previously would only discover, which required us to gather information on the backend, so Lookout is a welcome upgrade."
"The most valuable features are the antivirus as a whole, the anti-malware, and all of the protection features that scan our enterprise devices."
"The solution is stable."
"On the outside, the main differentiation is because Lookout ingest. They have ingested basically all of the apps for the last ten years and all the versions of all the apps, and we have that in a corporate database that allows us to do very large-scale machine learning and analysis on that data set. That's not something that any of the competitors really have the capability to do because they don't have access to the data set. A lot of the apps you can no longer get them because that version of the app is five or six years old, and it just doesn't exist anywhere anymore, except within our infrastructure. So, the ability to have that very rich dataset and learn from that dataset is a real differentiator."
"It has centralized management that allows administrators to supervise and control the security of the entire network."
"The Check Point portfolio showcases very strong products."
"Overall, the unified agent covers endpoints as well as prevents web browser attacks."
"Check Point provides high-quality technical support. The support was pretty quick."
"It's improved the security of every single OS in the organization as well as the visibility and security capabilities."
"The monitoring and granular policies are very helpful."
"Review of exported and imported packages and protection and content filtering have been useful."
"I find it very easy to implement and deploy in the organization."
"It has provided a seamless gateway to much-needed platforms."
"Distributing the agent was very simple, allowing us to enforce security posture on our devices (i.e. S1, Disk-encryption, etc.)."
"The solution provides us with an easy way to configure and join the VPN with Perimeter 81."
"The feature that I have found to be most valuable is the reputation that the company has regarding privacy. Nowadays, this is critical, especially when you do all of your work online."
"Logging back into Perimeter 81 is relatively user-friendly as I just need to re-type my Windows credentials in to access the VPN."
"It is a scalable solution."
"It connects quickly and stays connected. The user interface is pretty neat too. The app has in-house support with user guides that give you step-by-step walkthroughs on navigating the app. In addition, there is a live chat feature that offers prompt assistance on the go."
"Perimeter 81 is very pretty."
"From the analysis that we've done, they do seem to be maybe a step behind in trying to enter the market with a new solution. But when they do pick up, they do come out with some good products."
"Lookout was moving into the SSE space. And so their work on SecureWeb Gateway and SD-WAN is still sort of evolving."
"The stability depends on the service from where you access it. Because sometimes, the place you are in, you have Gateway. You don't have Gateway. The gateway is overutilized. At the end, you need to go through their gateways. And this is the key point here. You have a tracking point. If it's not well orchestrated, and it scales up as you add more to the existing team, you will suffer"
"We just submitted an enhancement request reflecting the main area we want to see improvement in; the APIs. Currently, we're able to build dashboards, but it's somewhat backward because we use our MDM API to create them. Lookout should provide API to customers so we can query our data and use it in our cloud, and this is the only outstanding area for improvement with the product right now."
"The access to the portal should be faster. It shouldn't crash a lot."
"Support is one of the points of improvement."
"The solution requires you to buy a minimum of 50 licenses and that is not practical."
"There is an issue when installing the Check Point client."
"The product needs to work on the integration of alerts with different SIEM or security solutions."
"Regarding the support, the schedules can be improved since they are generally in another geographical area, and it is difficult to solve the problems with the time differences between them and us."
"The complex initial setup phase of the product is an area that can be improved"
"They could improve on the available public documentation."
"The overall UI could be improved and updated to bring a simpler feel to the application."
"What would be useful would be a notification/warning that a session is due to timeout after exceeding the default connection limit."
"Its initial setup process is complex for a hybrid environment."
"I'd love to learn more about all of the features. Maybe a monthly spotlight of features or having a banner that explains more ways certain features could be used would be helpful."
"I don't know if it is technically feasible, however, if the Desktop App could be used as a Web App or a Chrome Extension it would be very nice."
"A Google Chrome extension would be handy instead of logging into the app."
"One of our challenges is ensuring the security of our cloud-based operations."
"In the future, maybe P81 can improve the network traffic balancing and redundancy."
