Likelihood to Recommend

Avanan works really well against spam, viruses, etc. We receive over 100 emails every day that is spam/scam but our users are way more protected and feel more confident with Avanan. It has some diffuclties when legitimate emails come from domains that don't send a lot of emails. But it's okay, at least we are protected.
