    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.

    To manage users, go to the admin dashboard, here is a section for users. In this users section here you can see which users are configured and you have the ability to suspend a user. If you want to edit or add users, you need to go to the Organization section, then click on another user section there, which then gives you the ability to edit or add users.

    Cons
    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.

    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.

    [The] customer support is quite good. Cost also has another point to add, along with process integration and ease of using new tool.
