Cloudguard IAAS by Checkpoint
What do you like best about the product?
Checkpoint IAAS was simple to configure and not too dis-similiar to the On-Premise solution. To note however, our On Prem Checkpoint is out of date (soon to be upgraded), so to deploy and configure the latest version of the firewall in the Cloud presented a new challenge, but it was a definite improvement on the older version.
Pay as You Go Model
Can be easily integrated with On Prem environment.
