    Implementation is fast and easy. It takes care of a large number of email security needs, with an established knowledgeable support team any problem or issue can be resolved promptly. As a cloud native solution the portal is easy to use and intuitive. Email archive is a great established product that is well designed and means IT have access to historical data quickly, the search feature is great. We find that there are a number of email security products like outbound DLP and signature management tools that would be great additions to Mimecast, but their offerings are weak. Missed opportunity.

    Robust protection with a small footprint. Catches all malware and viruses, while respecting the exclusions put in place by our organization. Pricing was very aggressive compared to other products. Great management application, where you can manage the installations and even update third-party apps on those machines from that portal. Great product for a great price.

    • Vipre Antivirus constantly scans your computer in the background without a need for user intervention.
    • In one program Vipre can successfully protect all your computing devices from both malicious virus attacks as where vicious spyware intrusions.
    • You won't feel any slowness or sluggishness with Vipre installed & running in the background while you continue to use your computing devices.

    Cons
    Mimecast
    • Recent changes to the dashboard have meant you cannot see the portal in tab views, making use a little slow
    • Outbound DLP rules are static and not as impressive as competitors on the market
    • Reporting is extremely basic and limited top 20 results
    • Email Signatures is impossible to use and a missed opportunity

    • When using older versions of Outlook I have seen the plugin cause sluggish behavior and hangs, in 2007 and 2010 versions specifically.
    • For some business applications, there are .dll's and libraries and application .exe's that can be misidentified as virus or trojans. While it is fairly easy to whitelist these once discovered, new implementors should be aware that they will need to carefully look through their initial virus scan reports to find and whitelist these items.

    VIPRE is very easy to use and administer. You have a lot of functionality from the server on what you can do with the clients. It has proved useful when I can't access a client any other way. I can reboot the computer from the server and then usually get back into that machine.

    VIPRE support is usually pretty quick. Sometimes you have to get a lot of information to send back so they can see the issue. This has not been too bad and I understand why it's needed. VIPRE also has a free rescue tool that is very useful and easy to use. There have been others but VIPRE seems to keep theirs updated. It's my go-to even outside of work.

    Overall they are very similar products, but what elevated Mimecast Integrated Cloud email Security over Proofpoint was the people. The staff, from the prompt and knowledgeable support staff, very helpful customer success managers and always available account managers. Technology is only ever as good as the people using or supporting it, and the staff at Mimecast really give great support and assistance in getting the full value from the product stack.

    We got a chance to buy AVG Business edition and we tried to install that throughout our organization and most specifically to our important systems but it was not compatible with a majority of them and we found AVG as high-demand software with a mediocre speed of action and more pricing. So in comparison to AVG, VIPRE is good in all aspects.

    • The VIPRE MSP program cost effectively lets me integrate protection into every endpoint I protect.
    • Integration with ConnectWise for deployment and billing has increased our revenue.
    • Integration with ConnectWise for management means we keep endpoint protection coverage consistently above 99% to secure our clients.
