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

Firewall for Public Clouds
What do you like best about the product?
Since I had experince with Check Point NGFW before, it was easy for me to adapt CloudGuard IaaS. Basicly, this solution has the same architecture and components as NGFW, so when you deploy it to the cloud, it feels like managing just yet another datacenter of you company. It also has a reach set of supporte cloud provides, but for now we use it only on Google Cloud Platform.
What do you dislike about the product?
As with other solution of this kind, you still have to manage basic cloud firewall and routes for VPC outside of CloudGuard IaaS - there's no 100% integration if you concern.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Main usage - protection of our cloud assests deployed on Google Cloud Platform - firewall and Intrusion Prevention Blades. Also we rely on GeoIP module to restrict undesired countries from accessing our services (as for now you can't achieve it with GCP firewall).
Recommendations to others considering the product:
You should fully understand the way CloudGuard would be integrated into you cloud from the networking perspective, and it differs from platform to platform. E.g. for Google Cloud the instances of Cloud Guard must have interfaces in several VPCs as a requirement. Think about the subnetting and routing for your project, make a PoC with your networking staff.
Check Point CloudGuard IaaS - Firewall in the cloud
What do you like best about the product?
Multiple templates are available across multi cloud vendors. From single gateway to classic HA to auto-scaling. I would recommend to use the auto-scaling whenever possible. Since session synchronization is not possible in cloud. This is an issue for each vendor, not Check Point specific!
What do you dislike about the product?
The documentation is not yet on point. To get up and running is a steep learning curve. With a lot of trial and error.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Protecting resources in the cloud, with a lot of automation. It is a nice showcase how automated security can work!
Recommendations to others considering the product:
When wanting to have a single glass of pane, extending your visibility from onsite to cloud, this is the way to go!

What do you like best about the product?
Cloudguard IaaS allows integration with most of the cloud environments, it supports AWS, GCP, Azure.
What do you dislike about the product?
I really dislike cluster environments because its really annoying the wait time for the standby member start to manage traffic.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I had enforce a better security than the default one, it integrates very well with the AD server and can see activity from users, also the access from on-premise to servers have been improved and secure since we can create a VPN really easy with our solutions.
