Proton seems to be a great way for starters but we felt that with Avanan, they take it to another level with their security. The less we have to worry about in our emails, the easier we can do our jobs for our clients and those we work for daily.

I have used Cisco's secure Email, one of the major dislike is User Interface that is buggy and not user friendly. It does not update it's database for spam sites. Integration process takes much time whereas Avanan takes very less time. Cisco Secure Email sometimes deletes the important emails and that is worst where as Avanan has good AI/ML integration there are very rare false positive in deleting emails.

Avanan has the best integration suite and is well recognised in the industry for its email security and malware protection. I would definitely go with Avanan in the future, too, to ensure the best level of security for my organisation. Avanan connects with my GSuite account smoothly, which is very important for me in selecting email security software.

Avanan is seamless, so we can prevent losing any sensitive data even before it happens. Avanan also has an advanced malware analysis system for file attachments and URLs including click time protection feature. Avanan can detect almost all the malicious content available up to date and it can prevent those emails from reaching the inbox.

Avanan comes with many advanced features which can be very user-friendly. The overall cost is slightly cheaper than Proofpoint Email Protection. Technical support from Avanan is quite responsive and able to resolve the reported issue in timely manners. Anomaly detections are quite accurate and does not introduce a lot of false positive events.

Cisco has a strong competitor with Avanan although the immense suite of Cisco products brings strong competition. Avanan's strength lies in rapidity to implement and ease of use which more established players are less able to do, due to a lack of agility. Avanan has a promising future in front of them.

I have not used the same featured platform as Avanan. In my experience with this platform, I have the full belief that this product delivers beyond our imagination. It has protected us from viruses that could have destroyed our systems and interfered with our data. We have been able to put measures that enhance the better infrastructure for workflows and data analysis from any source without any fear of malware.

Avanan is excellent for the control of attacks on cloud-based applications like malware and ransomware. The anti-phishing feature is excellent ensuring business continuity with good reporting to problem identification within the organization. Good for an organization supporting email communication as spam is detected and blocked. Avanan is the better option for sandboxing, data protection and is good for the value of your money when compared to other similar products.
