Homogeneous security in cloud as on-premise

  • October 22, 2020
  • Review verified 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.

Best NGFW cloud product

  • September 13, 2020
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Integration with the your current Checkpoint ecosystem
Integration with the Cloud API
Same features than physical checkpoints
What do you dislike about the product?
HA failover time is not as fast as expected
Cost, cost cost.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Deploy NGFW in any public and private cloud in the same way than you could do in the physical world.
In public cloud, use the PAYG license.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Check the relation between cost and features.
Do a PoC before to go live, and check other Vendors (Cisco, Palo Alto...)

Check Point Cloudguard Iaas is a life saver for companies requiring reliable protection and access

  • July 28, 2020
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The quick deployment and scalability and fully functional firewall available in the cloud. We were able to scale as required based on load and performance. With Covid-19 our users including our Customer Center agents are completely remote and use Check Point Cloudguard to even take calls so our customers are not affected in any way
What do you dislike about the product?
The documentation could be done better but this was in the initial stages when we deployed it but it has come a long way since
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We needed reliable protection for our assets in the cloud as well as remote connectivity to our hosted application in other data centers while giving our users remote access to all of the above assets. We were doing this on premise with 3 clusters of firewalls where as with Cloudguard IaaS we are doing all of this and more with 1 cluster. this is a huge cost saving for us
Recommendations to others considering the product:
It is a very easy install for a product that does so much. I would highly recommend it

Nice NGFW for any cloud

  • July 03, 2020
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The ability to integrate with any cloud includes public and private ones.
Subscription model - pay only for what you are using.
API integration with the cloud that helps to create the dynamic rules on FW.
What do you dislike about the product?
The price is high.
Deploying and configuring is hard if you've never used Check Point
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We restrict communication between cloud servers and use it as usual NGFW on public resources.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Check Point is one of the security visioners, so you can trust its features. But be prepared to face all the subtleties of configuration and administration.
