    It's suitable for content filtering applications using regex, hash, domain, or email... It's particularly perfect for a Cisco infrastructure. It's also perfect for a hybrid environment, such as on-prem/cloud. It's less appropriate for small- to mid-sized infrastructure because it's too complex for basic use. The UI can be improved as well.

    Good for transferring over an existing site. Truth be told, I haven't used it for building a brand new site-- I know that this is a fairly common thing but I just never needed it. For what I've used it for, it has worked well. For a small business with anyone with a little bit of technical skill, it's surprisingly good.

    Cons
    Cisco
    • On certain client machines, we found that the software prevented the opening of innocuous email attachments flagging them as potentially harmful.
    • Emails with large attachment sizes can sometimes slow down the email loading process.

    • Support agents are woefully undertrained, even in knowledge of their own products.
    • Support agents will always try to upsell you, even when you're dealing with an urgent, high-impact issue.
    • There's no guarantee of uptime, and there will often be gaps in service as part of normal procedures.

    We can't really choose anyone else and the cost/effort of moving all of the hosted data would be extremely large, and we just have to stick to them, and hope they improve service

    Some integration could be much cleaner and smoother. Seems it used to be easier. Plus, they took away the catch all email feature.

    Support Rating
    Cisco
    Cisco TAC support is very good since they have engineers available 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. Important to mention that you must have the support of the solution enabled to be able to receive a response from TAC and that we can be taken care of. The only drawback may be that they will not be able to see settings of the email provider you use.

    I think a lot of companies can learn from GoDaddy's support team. I have found:
    • Chat or phone support is almost always available.
    • Their agents are friendly and helpful.
    • Their agents seem to care and be knowledgeable about a wide range of issues.
    • I rarely have to escalate my problem to get the support that I need.
    • If they can't help me, then they can tell me why something is happening and direct me to resources that can fix my problem.

    Cisco was at least better than or equal to the others but within our budget. It provided all of the services of anti-spam, content filtering, anti-virus, DLP, encrypted email service, scalability, and more than the others. Cisco name and reputation were also key in our decision.

    We use Wix currently for our online store. It is nice and easy to use, but they don't offer the email domains as well (the last time we checked). They have pretty decent customization of the web page, but still limited. We're going to try it with GoDaddy, since we have other services from them already. It just doesn't make sense to pay two different companies for something we can do with one.

    Return on Investment
    Cisco
    • Saves us precious resources by blocking unwanted E-mail right at the edge of our network.
    • Users can work more efficient when all spam and malware is stopped before reaching their inboxes.
    • Enables us to protect our outgoing mail with DKIM signing and validate all incoming mail on the most modern securiry standards.

    • GoDaddy reduces our ROI by costing me in non-billable hours. I don't charge clients for sitting on the phone with tech support to power cycle the server or fix the php.ini file, so my $/hr takes a hit.
    • Their nickel&dime strategy requires I have an additional conversation with clients about their max recurring fees. Small as they are, I need approval for upping their bill. GoDaddy is only the cheap option if you don't value security, stability, or performance.
