    I believe for anyone running Check Point Firewalls, there is a big benefit. Their MDR team and pro service folks are extremely knowledgeable on their products, and very quick to implement fixed if needed. If you are also running endpoint, or harmony email (Avanan) it's a no brainer. If don't run any Check Point Products, it might make more sense to find the best bang for your buck based on reviews and feedback from current clients.

    Cons
    Check Point Software Technologies
    • They could improve the active directory integration to support windows server version that are technically out of support.
    • Maybe have a proactive feature that detects things they can integrate into MDR and track them.

    Usability
    Check Point Software Technologies
    Only because there is not a good mobile app for it. Other than that it's great. If there was a mobile app for this product, it would be a perfect 10/10 for sure.

    Alternatives Considered
    Check Point Software Technologies
    We selected the Check Point MDR service largely because we are a Check Point Infinity client. I have to say, I thought that we would be trading a bit of cost, and ease of integration for slower response or less attention to detail, but that could not be further from the truth. I have been extremely satisfied with what they have been able to alert, detect and prevent in our environment.

    The equipment is robust and reliable. It has great flexibility in configurations and is fully scalable in terms of power and functionalities in relation to the needs of each company. It has the ability to integrate with other critical security technologies to provide comprehensive solutions that meet security needs. It has numerous license models, this limits the number of pairs regardless of type; clientless vs client SSL VPN, IPsec, l2tp-IPsec.

    Return on Investment
    Check Point Software Technologies
    • They have literally saved us from fraud and reputation damaging issues by the speed at which they detect someone's email has been compromised. I would say the last one was within 15 minutes. The fraudsters only got 2 emails out before we intervened.
    • I don't know that you can put a price on them quarantining an infected workstation at 2am when you are sleeping, and it's about 1/1000 the cost of hiring a 3rd shift network admin.
