Overall Satisfaction with Mimecast Advanced Email Security

We use perimeter defense on the edge of our email infrastructure. The main reason for investing in Mimecast Advanced Email Security technology was too many spam and phishing emails making it through the spam filter into emplyees mailboxes

Pros

  • filters spam
  • quick emial processing
  • DR solution for sending email without Outlook

Cons

  • ease of use for admins
  • additional plugin support for non-outlook email systems
  • Increased Email Security
  • Reduced Security Incidents
  • Improved Compliance and Risk Management
  • Complex Setup and Maintenance
User side is very easy, however the admin side of this toolset can be very confusing at times, often feeling like the use of policies and definitions overlap.

Yes, Mimecast Advanced Email Security is much more capable of meeting our need - its a traditional MTA style spam filter, preventing mail from entering our infratstructure as opposed to a behavioural approach as seen in Microsoft and many of its competitors.
Mimecast Advanced Email Security at the time, seems to be the most stable, reliable, cloud-based MTA spam filter that integrated with SSO and ticks all of our security and compliance boxes.
