The marketing strategy and campaigns need more work. the competition is way more aggressive.
Some of the features like CLI reference, WAF capabilities etc are not there.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are able to protect not only IaaS but also PaaS services with CloudGuard.
Either it be autoscaling mode or Active Passive mode or single standby mode, Checkpoint Gateways work best in all the scenarios.
There were lots of attacks and ransomware we were facing which is now blocked seamlessly by checkpoint and the same we could see in the weekly or daily reports scheduled by the management server.

Recommendations to others considering the product:
No other thoughts checking and doing PoCs on other products, Just have a PoC with checkpoint product and you will see the difference.

Good system provided via Azure IAAS with good security oversight
What do you like best about the product?
The ability to easily encrypt / decrypt traffic at ease according to the security policy as well s the integration between Active Directory, Cloudguard Azure objects & application control.
What do you dislike about the product?
System hardening could be improved as password complexity is not enforced by default on root / command line passwords.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We had an issue earlier in the year where AD query would not work, after investigation it turned out that access roles were being assigned to the wrong LDAP account, SmartConsole does say to be cautions with using multiple LDAP accounts however I feel this could do with some more visibility to administrators (Which LDAP object a Access role is assigned to).
Easy to deploy in the cloud

Easy to deploy in the cloud. Management of IaaS is easy from onsite or in the cloud. Easy to enable features and security the cloud environment.

Cloudguard IAAS by Checkpoint
What do you like best about the product?
Checkpoint IAAS was simple to configure and not too dis-similiar to the On-Premise solution. To note however, our On Prem Checkpoint is out of date (soon to be upgraded), so to deploy and configure the latest version of the firewall in the Cloud presented a new challenge, but it was a definite improvement on the older version.
Pay as You Go Model
Can be easily integrated with On Prem environment.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Set up as a Firewall in our isolated DR environment.
Allowing VPN connectivity into our DR environment
With continued upgrading of our On-Prem environment, we have understood how easy it is to deploy the Firewall for our future Cloud journey.

Powerful cloud architecture hamstrung by poor documentation
What do you like best about the product?
Scalable infrastructure tools that seemlessly integrate with on-prem solutions
What do you dislike about the product?
The documentation provided by Check Point can be rough. There are several pieces of content just completely missing, including broken links and documentation that is at odds with documentation provided byt he cloud service providers
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We needed a scalable infrastucture solution that would enable us to extend our on-prem network into the cloud. As opposed to static deployments in the past, we've been able to stand up infrastrucutre that can take advantage of some of the ephemeral benefits that can be gleaned from cloud deployments
