    MailGate
    MailGate is well suited for organizations that have sensitive information with the need to securely transport via email, it is less appropriate for larger organizations as the overhead for administrators becomes more complex

    • 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.

    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
