How we grade them
| 2.0GPACheck Point Harmony EndpointFair | 2.2GPACrowdStrike Falcon GoFair | |
|---|---|---|
| Value for money | CNo price is published, so there is nothing to set against this category's $2.58 to $6.50 a month; the listing says it is by quote. The page names channel partners as the way to buy. | D$59.99 a device a year, or $7.99 a month. We judge antivirus on five devices over two years, and that's $599.90, about $25 a month, several times what home suites here cost. The business kit, one console, USB control and Express Support, explains some of it. Renewals are at the then-standard price. |
| Free plan and trial | DA free trial is offered but its length is not stated on the page read, and a trial of unknown terms cannot be graded higher. | CNo free plan, but there's a 15-day free trial, and nothing on record says it wants a card. After that, annual plans can be refunded within 30 days and monthly ones can't. |
| Features | BAnti-ransomware, anti-malware, EDR, XDR, zero-phishing, patching, DLP and disk encryption from one agent. The listing names no gap in the core job. | CIt does the core job fully: machine-learning antivirus on Windows, Mac and Linux, USB device control, and threat protection on iPhone and Android. But it's narrower than the suites here. Firewall management needs Falcon Pro, and there's no VPN, password manager or identity monitoring. |
| Ease of use | CBusiness product with a console and agents to roll out; no store rating is on record and the listing shows setup work, so it sits at the ordinary grade. | BNo store rating on record. Protection comes switched on with pre-set policies, there's a step-by-step onboarding guide, and one home screen shows your devices and what was blocked. You do still put the agent on each machine. |
| Platforms and integrations | CWindows, Mac and Linux only, with Check Point's own ThreatCloud AI as the one integration listed. No phone apps. | BWindows, Mac, Linux, iPhone and Android, all run from one console, so every device a small office has is covered. No integrations or API are on record, which keeps it at B. |
| Best for | one agent for protection, detection and encryption | small businesses with no IT person |

How this page was made
- The verdict at the top follows a fixed rule. When both tools are in the same category and either is in our top three for it, the verdict follows that ranking: the higher-placed tool is our pick. The top three weigh who each tool suits as well as its grades, so a pick can go against the GPA. Otherwise the page does not pick one and says which grades higher: the higher GPA first; on a tie, the one with a free plan, then the one that starts cheaper in dollars a month, counted the same way for both; if they are still level, what the choice depends on.
- The grades are our own, from each tool’s review or report card. The GPA is their average.
- Prices, plans and platforms come from each tool’s listing. The table above says where each price was read and when.
