Which one is for you

Pick Check Point Harmony Endpoint if

  • Fits if you want one agent for prevention, response and full-disk encryption
  • Works for companies that already buy from Check Point partners

Look elsewhere if

  • Not for you if you want a published price, as the page offers a trial and a demo request only
  • Skip it if you are an individual, since it is sold to businesses through partners
  • Watch out: the trial length is not stated on the page read
  • Too light for phones: no iPhone or Android client is listed
  • Tight if you want to buy online by yourself, as buying runs through Check Point's channel partners

Pick Huntress if

  • Fits if you run IT for several small businesses and want a security team watching
  • Works for a company with endpoints to cover and no in-house analysts

Look elsewhere if

  • Skip it if you're a home user, as there's no consumer plan
  • Not for you if you want a free plan, as the pricing page lists none
  • Pricey if you want a plain antivirus: $8.99 per endpoint a month is a managed service price
  • Watch out: pricing is list price, quotes come from a demo form, the term is 12 months and multi-year price protection isn't offered

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.
