"I like CloudGuard's features, but its UI is not very organized and it is difficult to use"

3.5/5

What do you like best about Check Point Cloud Firewall (formerly CloudGuard Network Security)?

Checkpoint Cloudguard is an incredible cloud security product that is easy to use and offers a single sign-on feature that saves a ton of time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Check Point Cloud Firewall (formerly CloudGuard Network Security)?

I have little use for Check Point CloudGuard Network Security. The product has good features, but they're outweighed by other problems. I can’t customize the settings. TAC team support is insufficient because they just provide templated answers and take a long time to respond. I do not recommend this software. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Check Point Cloud Firewall (formerly CloudGuard Network Security) solving and how is that benefiting you?

Check Point CloudGuard Network Security is a complete waste of time. We were told that there were maintenance and licensing costs, but the billing was awful and we also found other hidden fees. We couldn't get a true overview of the expenses involved, and the additional fees and charges are useless. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It is very capable of isolating the malicious traffic from the regular traffic

It monitors all the traffic to and from the containers including on Prem to cloud environment and vice versa also the connection between the containers

The UI is very clean and easy to understand

Implementation is quite fast Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There are not many downsides to the network security module but the logs supported are limited they only support cloud trial logs and vpc logs

We cannot get end to end traffic view which if present can be more helpful at times Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

since we have multiple cloud service providers and 7 different accounts for various applications, it is challenging to keep track of the security compliance of the cloud environment and any security breach starts at network level and is by far the most important part and cloud gaurd greatly helps us to keep track of the security standards.
