Cloudguard IAAS by Checkpoint

  • November 19, 2020
  • Review provided by G2

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 To note however, our On Prem Checkpoint is out of date (soon to be upgraded), so to deploy and configure the latest version of the firewall in the Cloud presented a new challenge, but it was a definite improvement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 do you dislike about the product?
Documentation could be improved

Not much to dislike - I am a fan of Checkpoint products
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

  • November 16, 2020
  • Review provided by G2

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

CloudGuard IaaS in Azure and AWS

  • October 26, 2020
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Works effectively when deployed per best practice recommendations. We were able to easily integrate IaaS gateways into a hybrid cloud with our on-premise infrastsructure and multiple cloud vendors
What do you dislike about the product?
Licences are per-core rather than per-gateway/VM
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Migration of on-premise environment to hybrid cloud with on-premise, Azure and AWS gateways integrated

Homogeneous security in cloud as on-premise

  • October 22, 2020
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The Cloud solution integrates in a homogeneous way with your current infrastructure and it's centrally managed within your current environment.
What do you dislike about the product?
Some functionalities are developed and offered a bit later compared with the similar physical systems (or not supported at all).
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Essentially the efficiency and visibility cost of managing different security solutions that do not integrate very well. If you are already using other vendor's products its easy to start running this solution as the way of managing them it's practically the same between cloud and on-premise systems.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Advise to not generating too much configuration at native cloud provider tools as you're going to have to migrate such configurations to the IaaS solution.
