Endpoint Protector by CoSoSys vs. Paubox Email Suite

Endpoint Protector [by CoSoSys] is well suited for an environment where a data loss prevention solution is required and many different operating system types are used. It is also well suited for an organization that has a need to deploy a solution quickly. Endpoint Protector is not well suited for companies that need to have an API or other integrations with other IT tools.

It is well-suited where you have access to manage your business's own domain settings. It is well-suited to medical professionals requiring send/receive email encryption of PHI/PII in compliance with HIPAA. It is less well-suited to solo users than group users, due to Paubox's requirement to buy licenses in sets of 3 (requiring you to pay $120x3=$360 yearly for 3 licenses, even if you only need 1 license).

Endpoint Protector [by CoSoSys] was able to be installed on all major operating systems. Endpoint Protector was also able to perform block actions and do it at a granular level among the endpoints. Business needs required a traditional data loss prevention and Endpoint Protector met those needs. We had a need to block some USB storage events and Endpoint Protector met those needs.

Paubox is much easier to use than other software we have tried. Once it's installed, we almost forget about it.

• Didn’t work as expected
• Not sure yet if we are going to renew it, thankfully we didn’t make a 3 year contract required by them.
• The are not many options in the market for source code detection, so we may have to stick with it

• Paubox provided a plug-n-play solution, requiring no extra development, so the switchover cost was very low.
• By integrating with our existing support system, Paubox added no overhead to our customer support.
• The user experience is great for the vast majority of our customers (those whose email provider supports TTL encryption), so customer satisfaction remains high.
