  • We would be able to overcome account compromises with their spam and malware filters.
  • We can also prevent data stealing occurrences by detecting hijacking and ransomware in advance.
  • We don't have to rely on user integrity all the time as Avanan always keep an eye on those situations.

  • Avanan has protected us from threats of malware and spam, which means we don't have to worry about anything else after our devices have been infected by them
  • Emails the platform sends out straight after you create a campaign are not very customizable. They come out as very generic and impersonal.
