Check Point 2200 Appliances- Discontinued
I would say you need someone experienced in Check Point Appliances. You must know the Linux command line as there are a lot of commands that aren't in the guild. I would say 2200 is for a medium-sized company. The appliance we have can't handle a big company and it would be too expensive for a small company.

Check Point 2200 Appliances- Discontinued
- Cost: very expensive to purchase and maintain.
- Lack of disk space and memory are the biggest issues we have.
- Hard/impossible to migrate from physical to virtual appliance.

Check Point Quantum Security Gateway
- HTTPS Inspection -- The firewall has troubles re-packaging the packet in a way that some websites are able to interpret correctly
- Support -- Even getting support directly from Check Point isn't the easiest of experiences. They are more concerned about how fast they can close a ticket out, rather than fixing the problem.
- Custom reports -- Custom reporting is extremely limited

It all depends on who you get for support. There are a few that know the hardware/software well and some that don't. You can ask for a second level if you can't get your answer or issues resolved. But overall it's good. I would give it a higher score but we have waited for 4-6 hours for a call back on certain issues.

Check Point has a variety of support options that can be used to optimize your investment in the product. Companies with a larger information security and certified checkpoint engineer employee base can benefit from a standard SLA, while companies with a smaller security engineering footprint or more critical implementations can opt for premium, elite or diamond packages that even include the ability to provide on-site engineers for major security incidents. Check Point PRO support also provides the ability to outsource maintenance concerns by automating case creation and follow up when application components fail.

Both were great products but Check Points seemed to be easier to manage and more stable. While cost was also comparable we chose Check Point because of our enterprise investment with them

In a heterogeneous environment, we wanted to keep multiple vendors for multiple purposes. CP was found very good in handling basic Next generation firewalls features along with handling of VPNs.

- Although there are better alternatives out there, Check Point delivers results for the price we paid for the system.
- Since implementation, we have not have any major issues with the product, minor issues were resolved in a timely fashion.
- Check Point currently fulfills our need for an outside facing firewall, when our organization grows larger, we will be looking at higher level enterprise solutions.
