    EdgeWave
    EdgeWave mitigates some of the risk of email by pre-filtering for emails with viruses or other security threatening attachments. It does a good job of removing unwanted or potentially risky emails and allowing for safe viewing and review of these emails without compromising your company and mail delivery systems. It does not provide a timely notification delivery system for seeing emails with problems without accessing their client consolr site.

    Good if you like privacy and not having your data mined for advertizing and AI training.

    Cons
    EdgeWave
    • More information could be available in the email notification that reports when email was blocked.
    • While trying to work with an application that sends email it can be difficult to determine why the email was not received if blocked by EdgeWave unless a check of their dashboard is made since notifications cannot be scheduled more than once daily.
    • The option to have reports sent more frequently is a much needed feature.

    • Exporting email (which I like to do for archiving) is awkward and slow.
    • Proton Mail Bridge (which allows access from other email readers like Outlook) sometimes has synchronization issues. Lately these just resolve themselves.

    Mostly intuitive and easy to use. A bit harder if you stick with two passwords (one for the account and one for the encryption).

    Alternatives Considered
    EdgeWave
    EdgeWave ePrism Email Security is very similar to other programs such as Barracuda, SonicWall, or Proofpoint. I have used some of these other products in the past and I can't say that any of them do anything better or significantly different from EdgeWave so I believe all would provide similar protection. EdgeWave was the product chosen before I started working at my current employer and I don't have any compelling reason to change.

    Proton had a wider offering of products like vpn and drive. I ended up paying for a yearly subscription, I liked it so much.
