"Reliable Cloud Network Security with Strong Threat Protection"

4.5/5

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

What I like most about Check Point Cloud Firewall is its strong security capabilities and the centralized visibility it gives me across cloud environments. It helps protect workloads with advanced threat prevention, network traffic inspection, and clear security policy management. I also appreciate the added control it provides over cloud network access, and how it helps me spot potential threats early—before they can affect production workloads.

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

The initial setup and configuration can feel a bit complex, especially when you’re managing multiple cloud environments alongside network policies. Troubleshooting and updating policies isn’t always as straightforward as it could be, and the learning curve is fairly steep for new users. I’d also like to see simpler, more intuitive dashboards and pricing that’s more transparent. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
