Overall Satisfaction with Mimecast Secure Email Gateway

Mimecast handles all aspects of our email for the entire organization. From a basic level it allows and blocks mail. However it also protects against aspects such as DLP (Content Examination) looking for regular expressions in your email and performing appropriate actions against the email. It also gives you options with your email such as changing email data, such as if it came in from X person, change it to look like it came in from Y person. Mimecast is extremely powerful and worth every penny.
  • Blocking Spam
  • DLP (Content Examination)
  • Blocking other malicious files
  • Customer engagement on their forums
  • Reporting - They have a few options, but are limited to what they give you (for the most part)
  • Phone support - They have access to your configuration, however do not have tools to see your screen
  • First Time Setup - At the time we set the product up it was very difficult. However after talking with their experts they have proven that they took great strides to fix this.
  • Safer/Secure environment
  • Able to accomplish things easily through the UI versus some convoluted solution through Exchange
  • Able to accomplish many things that other companies simply do not provide
At the time we were forced to move from McAfee because they were being purchased by Intel. We were recommended Mimecast through our reseller, and has been great ever since. Mimecast does a better job at filtering out bad "stuff", and gives you so many more options.
Email protection both from spam, viruses, and other malicious entities. They are very active in their community and take requests/ideas very seriously. I cannot think of an area where Mimecast would be less appropriate as all businesses are affected by email and the risks associated with it.
