What do you like best about Check Point Application Control?

The number of pre-configured (default objects) for applications and software categories is just amazing.

We still have to define some manually since we develop our own software and it works on non-default ports, but the Check Point Application Control allows to do that in an easy way. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Check Point Application Control?

During the configuration and exploitation of the Check Point Application Control I haven't had issue I could complain about, so the general experience has been positive. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Check Point Application Control solving and how is that benefiting you?

The Check Point HA Clusters server as the core security solution for protecting our company's DataCenter located in Asia. We use the Check Point Application Control software blade in the security policy installed on the Check Point Clusters. The rules consume the object - application definitions and the groups of them - to defined whether the access to or from such an application is allowed or denied. I was amaze with the number of applications available just after the blade activation - I feel like the Check Point have a great experience working on application definition and categorization. We also extended the pre-defined set of the application, which may be done quite easy. In overall, the solution is simple, but helps to improve the way you defined your firewall rules. It works stable and doesn't affect the performance of the Check Point Clusters. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Check Point Application Control?

1. The incredible amount of the built-in application in the database.

2. Ability to define custom application in a simple and convenient way.

3. For R80.10 software and above version, the Application Control policy is unified with Access Control and URL filtering.

4. Ability to inspect the encrypted traffic if you provide the users correct certificate. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Check Point Application Control?

So far there has been only the positive experience from using the Check Point Application Control software blade on our NGFWs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Check Point Application Control:

The application database is great, probably the richest among the solutions on the market, and you could easily add the custom application types and groups. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Check Point Application Control solving and how is that benefiting you?

We use the Check Point Next Generation Firewalls as the edge firewall across all our offices. The Application Control software blade is enabled on all the Gateways and Clusters and inspect the traffic with great performance, without degradation. In the policy, we define the specific application set every AD domain group may use for work (that requires the Check Point Identity Awareness blade to be activatedas well). I'm also satisfied with the visibility of the logs provided on every policy violation event. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
