Missive vs. Proton Mail vs. Virtru

It fills the gap between large commercial softwares for large companies, and for small companies. Most email hosts are just basic until you start bringing in video calls, chat, etc. Missive has that and more, and I think is the #1 email choice for small companies.

Good if you like privacy and not having your data mined for advertizing and AI training.

Of all the products out there that integrate with Google, we found Virtru to be the most user-friendly for both our users and the recipients. At the same time, its logging capabilities provide the trail we need for sensitive information. This is one tool for us that has generally been "setup and forget" which helps with the I.T. Dept workload.

Mostly intuitive and easy to use. A bit harder if you stick with two passwords (one for the account and one for the encryption).

I can only compare to free services or to Outlook. I cannot go back to Outlook... Truly. Outlook hits all the right marks for a business, and Missive exceeds those marks and sets new standards. I joined a company that had already chosen Missive. I not only was able to pick it up intuitively, but I felt proficient at it within a couple of weeks and already felt my workflow and communication skyrocket.

Proton had a wider offering of products like vpn and drive. I ended up paying for a yearly subscription, I liked it so much.

Others were far more expensive
