Likelihood to Recommend	Forcepoint Forcepoint Email Security is perfect for set and forget. Very little do I need to get in and that's to tailor a policy there are minimal issues I have encountered since using the product. Incentivized Alan Matson, CCNA:S, MCP Sr. Network Security Engineer Read full review	Broadcom Any business, regardless of size, can benefit from using Symantec Mail Security. It's very well customizable, easy to use and set up, and easy to maintain. It's a great tool to avoid unsolicited messages, security issues, phishing attacks, viruses, etc. It's really reassuring that the software is kept up-to-date, so we can be sure to be protected should a new kind of attack emerge.

Support Rating	Forcepoint The support could be better, but the good thing is rarely having to call them. Incentivized Alan Matson, CCNA:S, MCP Sr. Network Security Engineer Read full review	Broadcom No answers on this topic
Alternatives Considered	Forcepoint Since Forcepoint is used widely in our organization, the integration between DLP web and Mail is amazing, and I didn’t find a good reason to split services between vendors if I have all the package in one place Incentivized Guy Fridman Head of IT - Landa Digital Printing Read full review	Broadcom No answers on this topic
Return on Investment	Forcepoint Even though Forcepoint solution is targeted high in terms of price, the added value it provides to an organization by securing their system in web and mail is tremendous Incentivized Guy Fridman Head of IT - Landa Digital Printing Read full review	Broadcom No answers on this topic
