What do you like best about Check Point URL Filtering?

It blocks risky or non-compliant sites in real time with ThreatCloud-backed categorization, and it’s easy to apply rules by user, group, or network segment. The logs clearly show which URLs were accessed or blocked and why, which is great for both incident response and audit reporting. Integration with Identity Awareness makes policy enforcement user-based, not just IP-based. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Check Point URL Filtering?

Some niche or newly created domains take time to get categorized, and a few pages get misclassified now and then. Custom category creation could be more intuitive. Also, SSL inspection is still needed for full visibility, which adds overhead and requires extra care during deployment. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Check Point URL Filtering solving and how is that benefiting you?

It helps us block access to risky or non-work-related websites while enforcing compliance policies. We can apply rules based on users and AD groups, so HR and Finance get different access than IT. It reduces distractions, limits attack surface, and helps meet audit requirements with solid logging. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
