User Testimonials
	Alibaba Mail	Clearswift SECURE Email Gateway (SEG)
Likelihood to Recommend	Alibaba Cloud Alibaba Mail is well suited for email management and is very well suited for us. It has many good features that are important, like being secure, and tools like the integrated calendar, which is useful for seeing schedules, availability, and scheduling meetings or events accordingly. Another quite important thing is that it offers a collaborative software solution. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review	Fortra The CS SEG appliances are running as virtual appliances by now. They do need not much power in the ESX environment. I recommend to use at least two peers running in a cluster. The cluster feature is working very well. The CS SEG can process a huge number of emails in a very short time frame.

Pros	Alibaba Cloud Email management Secure system Built-in features Easy integration Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review	Fortra CS SEG is fast in email processing Managing the quarantine is easy Display of the reasons why an email has been processed this is very detailed Incentivized FH Frank Haarmann Senior Consultant Read full review
Cons	Alibaba Cloud UI could be better Integration Mobile support In-app support Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review	Fortra Improvement is needed in the area of AV/Antispam update processing (internally) Improvement is needed in the log file processing. Many log file entries are not understandable for an operator or administrator without special insider knowledge Clearswift has recently changed the support provider. Now there are no german supporters anymore. Incentivized FH Frank Haarmann Senior Consultant Read full review
Alternatives Considered	Alibaba Cloud Not applicable, as we went for Alibaba Mail on recommendations. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review	Fortra The Clearswift Secure Email Gateway (CS SEG) has very low license costs. A two peer cluster is enough to run a complete emailing gateway environment. Compared to the Proofpoint PPS the CS SEG does not need a management appliance. The CS SEG peers can manage the quarantine by themselves. This is easy to use and quite fast. Incentivized FH Frank Haarmann Senior Consultant Read full review
Return on Investment	Alibaba Cloud Secure system Reduced cost as other ESPs were costlier Enhanced productivity Saves time Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review	Fortra Since this CS SEG environment is operated for a customer, I cannot answer this question Incentivized FH Frank Haarmann Senior Consultant Read full review
