    I think that Webroot Email Security is good for small-medium sized businesses who are on a budget for email security. They actually have a great encryption system for outbound email, and so if you bundle those together then it puts everything in the same pane of glass and that is nice. Over the last few years this company was purchased by OpenText, and I have seen some improvements because of that, but this product is not innovating like other emails solutions based on new threats that are emerging. I would say if you have a relatively low volume of inbound email, then this solution would suffice.

    It is super easy to use any time we have a need to send something encrypted. It is great, because if we have a client that needs to send us something, we can send that person a link and they are able to use that to send us a protected file.

    • It is very user-friendly even for users that are not particularly tech-savvy.
    • The integration into Outlook makes it so convenient to use.
    • Gaining access to the portal is easy as well, so if you are away from your workstation, you can still send things securely.

    Cons

    • The admin interface seems a bit shabby. It's time for a refresher course.
    • Being able to modify our own security word without having to contact Zix.
    • Users may not enjoy needing to log in to access messages through the secure site.

    Usability
    OpenText
    It is much simpler to configure and operate in comparison to other anti-spam applications. Zix's customer usage is comparable to that of other spam filters on the market; but, in terms of convenience of use, Zix comes out on top. Daily delivery of logs is provided, and the user is not required to sign in order for an email to be sent.

    AppRiver's support from our perspective replaces the Microsoft365 Support we typically would have to receive from Microsoft by ticket. Instead, AppRiver supports us by phone, live chat, or email. Being able to get a hold of someone quickly makes a huge difference, especially when an issue is urgent and we can't wait hours or days for a response from Microsoft.

    Cost is competitive, but factoring in Office licensing really made sense for my organization. Cost is lower for more features - I was able to move to Zix and get the top of the line package, moving from a mid-tier product at a competitor. Workflows and process have improved, and the filter is more accurate than our previous filter

    Return on Investment
    OpenText
    • Protecting patient information
    • Users have to complete an account setup in order to view the encrypted email in a portal. Other platforms just let you open the email without having to setup an account.
    • Pretty easy to use if you don't make many customizations to it.
