    SolarWinds Mail Assure is well suited to medium and large sized organizations that need a configurable and flexible mail filter. It is likely to not be appropriate for marketing firms that want a set it and forget it sort of filter that needs no adjustment.

    Proofpoint
    Proofpoint Email Encryption is a strong fit for organizations with regulatory and compliance requirements and an excellent add-on for existing Proofpoint Email Security customers. Because encryption can be automatically triggered via DLP rules, it works particularly well for organizations that already use sensitivity labels.

    We have used a few mail security options, including SpamStopsHere. Mail Assure is easier to manage and adapts as it learns the email traffic and patterns that come into the company. We use most of the SolarWinds suite, including MSPManager, N-central, Passportal, and Endpoint Security. We have been happy with their products and they are always quick to respond to their support tickets.

    Return on Investment
    N-able
    • It cut down on the amount of spam we get.
    • It can differentiate a email box from an alias attached so it must be specified to keep from being billed.
