Overall Satisfaction with Cisco Secure Email Threat Defense

We use Cisco Secure Email Threat Defense for all our staff and contractors. It works great to protect all email, attachments, and external domain access. We filter both inbound and outbound emails. This provides the maximum email filtration and blacklist protection for our staff.

Pros

  • Attachment sandboxing
  • Email content filtering
  • Domain lookup
  • Blacklist protection

Cons

  • The web interface is definitely dated
  • The software updates to the user interface and the documentation online are not congruent. Some docs are old and information is lacking to make changes
  • The email filtering and email search features are really dated. And other tools are more user friendly
  • Up time is as close to 100% as you can get
  • Tuning is pretty straight forward and Cisco support is there to help with special tweaks and filter options. At no charge
  • Support access is pretty easy to get
  • Email threat, filtering, and geolocation verification is updated very regularly
Barracuda does not have all the features Cisco Secure Email Threat Defense does. Cisco Secure Email Threat Defense is integrated to Cisco Talos, the online Threat vigilance software that inspects world wide threats for both networking and email security. It gets updates real time when anything is identified. You feel safe using this product due to its significant product threat management.
