User Testimonials
	N-able Mail Assure	WatchGuard XCS (Discontinued)
Likelihood to Recommend	N-able 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. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review	WatchGuard Technologies I like it because it tends to block out some of the things that shouldn't get in our inboxes, but they somehow end up in our mailboxes sometimes, not a big deal. The main thing that needs to be blocked out is any phishing and it keeps those emails out! Incentivized Leticia Waller Quality Manager Read full review
Pros	N-able Spam filtering Adaptive learning for security Incentivized CM chris maddox Senior Consultant Read full review	WatchGuard Technologies Very Secure! Easy to use and set up. Great to keep things safe for employees and employer. Incentivized Leticia Waller Quality Manager Read full review
Cons	N-able SMTP scanning trips some spam filters. Releasing a quarantined spam email often requires admin intervention. Console access is cumbersome for end users. Incentivized HM Howard Magnes Senior I.T. Manager Read full review	WatchGuard Technologies I would like to see why the multi WAN doesn't work at times! Can be a little slow. Some things are blocked for no reason. Incentivized Leticia Waller Quality Manager Read full review
Support Rating	N-able The support has been rock solid, easy to communicate with, and highly knowledgable. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review	WatchGuard Technologies No answers on this topic
Alternatives Considered	N-able 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. Incentivized CM chris maddox Senior Consultant Read full review	WatchGuard Technologies I suggest WatchGuard because they offer so much. They offer the way to keep email and websites blocked that don't belong and they also help us connect to the server whenever we remote in from work. Everything is done with so much ease and there is not any hassle. Incentivized Leticia Waller Quality Manager Read full review
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. Incentivized HM Howard Magnes Senior I.T. Manager Read full review	WatchGuard Technologies It helps our computers be safe. Less worrying about IT fixing bugs on computers. Their beliefs are inline with ours. Incentivized Leticia Waller Quality Manager Read full review
