    This service may be useful for some businesses, so it's important to try it before deciding. It offers multiple layers of protection for both assisted and unassisted attacks, sandboxing (for obfuscated attacks), and a decent anti-phishing tool. It can be tricky to set up, but not the end of the world. In our case, unfortunately, the false positives were just unbearable.

    Tessian Cloud Email Security is well suited for anyone that can afford it. Email is the gateway for the bad guys and having as much security and protection as possible is critical

    • The Outlook Add-In broke several systems during use.
    • There are many changes to the account reps and engineers assigned to us. As a result, we lost touch with Tessian.
    • Lack of knowledge and help from Support during times when the Add-In was disrupting users.

    Pretty straight forward for the users and admins. Some terminology takes a little time to learn for the admin, functionally seems rock solid.

    Microsoft Exchange Online Protection is very easy to set up and has way fewer false positives than Kaspersky Security for Mail Server. It has virtually the same features as the Kaspersky alternative and it is extremely easy to set up. It feels like Microsoft Exchange Online Protection gives slightly more transparency about its conclusions, which allows users to make an informed decision about certain messages.

    Egress is a very capable product, likely on-par with Tessian as a fraction of the cost. I will be giving them a deep review this year
