Overall Satisfaction with Avanan

We use Avanan across the entire organization as [an] email security solution. We mainly purchased Avanan to block the phishing attacks that Microsoft EOP misses, which is a lot!
  • Blocks Phishing emails
  • Great Incident Response Team
  • Inline protection
  • Great at finding and preventing Malware on OneDrive and Sharepoint
  • Block more SPAM/Marketing emails
  • More information on anomalies
  • More information and flexability with Shadow IT
  • Positive - It [prevents] phishing attacks, plain and simple! This will save money in the long run as who knows how many times someone would have fallen for a fake Purchase Order, etc.
We have had a few issues with support getting back to us in a timely manner. For the most part, they have been helpful, but we are currently having an issue with [the] Outlook Blocked Senders list not working since our implementation. This has been going on for weeks with no resolution.

Do you think Avanan delivers good value for the price?

Yes

Are you happy with Avanan's feature set?

Yes

Did Avanan live up to sales and marketing promises?

Yes

Did implementation of Avanan go as expected?

Yes

Would you buy Avanan again?

Yes

Avanan is easy to use, but I do wish we had some more [customizability]. I also wish you could send yourself test emails with what the end-user would see if they got an email from an admin.
Avanan is well suited to block all the phishing attacks that Microsoft EOP misses. They catch/block 95-99% of what Microsoft EOP misses!

They could have a cleaner interface but are making some improvements in that regard. They could also do a better job with SPAM and giving you more information on anomalies.
