Overview
Check Point Smart-1 Cloud is Check Point security management delivered as a cloud service. Smart-1 Cloud provides security policy management of on-premises and IaaS security gateways, security event analytics and reporting from a single user-friendly web-based SmartConsole. Because it's delivered as a Software-as-a-Service (SaaS), ramp-up time changes from hours to minutes when compared with on-premises deployments. Check Point provides the infrastructure and the software so installation, deployment and maintenance times are eliminated - and you get the latest software from Check Point.
With security management delivered as a cloud service, businesses benefit from the elasticity and scalability available in cloud services. Smart-1 Cloud includes ample disk space for you to store your logs in the cloud for as long as you need them. As you grow and add additional managed security gateways, extend your security events log storage space as needed.
When it comes to security management, Check Point has a solution. From zero-touch gateway provisioning to security policy management to threat visibility and analytics to compliance and reporting to large scale multi-domain management to central deployment of software updates to codifying security management using RESTful APIs - Check Point has you covered.
With one console, security teams can manage all aspects of security from policy to threat prevention - across the entire organization - on both physical and virtual environments. Consolidated management means increased operational efficiency.
Highlights
- Automatically stays up-to-date with the latest security management features
- Zero maintenance makes your environments more secure, manageable and compliant
- Manage security anywhere from your web browser or from SmartConsole, and seamlessly expand cloud service capacity to onboard more gateways on-demand

What do you like best about the product?
Cloud Guard is one stop shop for all security related aspects of the webapplication or networking bit.
Best part is that CloudGuard keep updates the rules or security protocols and configurations regularly that enhances the security and reduces the blast radius significantly.
Manual configuration or tuning required to be very minimal. And its dashboarding features across different layers makes everyones life easy.

What do you dislike about the product?
Initial configuration and integrating with your organisation EDN will be rigid and somewhat tedious process initially.
For beginners it would really take quite some time to root through all the options it has considering its powerful nature across security aspects.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Its integration with majority of clouds.
Dashboards at different layers like WAF, network, CISP,CDR< workload protection makes it ideal choice for most projects.
Manual effort in securing or monitoring is really less when compared to regular products.

What I like best about Check Point CloudGuard Network Security is that it gives strong, enterprise grade security across cloud environments without making things complicated. It provides advanced threat prevention, consistent security policies across hybrid and multi cloud setups, and very good visibility. I also like that it integrates well with existing infrastructure which makes it practical for real world deployments
What do you dislike about the product?
The learning curve can be slightly steep at the beginning but that’s because it offers deep security features and flexibility and provides very strong protection and visibility across cloud environments

Powerful Multi-Cloud Protection, but Setup and UI Take Time to Master
Reviewed on Feb 16, 2026
Review provided by G2
What do you like best about the product?
What I like best about Check Point CloudGuard Network Security is its comprehensive protection combined with cloud flexibility. It provides multi-layered security that defends against both traditional and advanced cyber threats, including malware, ransomware, and targeted attacks. I also appreciate how it integrates seamlessly with major cloud platforms like AWS, Azure, and Google Cloud, allowing consistent security policies across hybrid and multi-cloud environments. Additionally, the centralized management and automated threat prevention features make it easier to monitor and respond to threats efficiently, saving time while maintaining a high level of security.
What do you dislike about the product?
One thing I dislike about Check Point CloudGuard Network Security is that its initial setup and configuration can be complex, especially for organizations new to cloud security. The platform offers a lot of advanced features, which is great, but it can sometimes feel overwhelming to configure policies correctly without deep expertise. Additionally, while the centralized management is powerful, the user interface could be more intuitive for quick navigation and reporting. Finally, the licensing model can be a bit costly for smaller teams, which might limit adoption despite its strong security capabilities.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Check Point CloudGuard Network Security solves several critical security challenges for organizations operating in cloud environments. It protects against malware, ransomware, phishing, and advanced persistent threats, while providing centralized visibility and control over cloud workloads. It also enforces consistent security policies across hybrid and multi-cloud environments, reducing misconfigurations and human errors. For me, this is highly beneficial because it ensures that my cloud infrastructure is secure without constant manual monitoring, saves time on threat detection and response, and provides confidence that sensitive data and applications are protected against evolving cyber threats.

Modern cloud-based network security solutions.
Reviewed on Feb 13, 2026
Review provided by G2
What do you like best about the product?
I like that it is cloud based which makes it very easy to implement in business environment. Its automation capabilities save a lot of otherwise unnecessary human-work which optimizes the overall working process in the organization. Also the Intrusion Prevention (IPS) capabilities (which are part of the automation process) can tremendously reduce the damage in case of an incident.
What do you dislike about the product?
Just like any cloud based application, it is very susceptible to "outage" in case of coordinated cyberattack against its main machines. Strong security posture should be in place for it to ensure users satisfaction. Pricing could be a little bit lower too.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It has protected my business from threats by reducing the most common cyber threats (which is network security's main responsibility). Another thing is that since it is cloud based you don't have to manually configure security solutions on every machine you use.
