Overall Satisfaction with Mimecast Secure Email Gateway
Mimecast Secure Email Gateway is first and last stop our email makes as it traverses to and from us. We have our MX records set such that all email sent to our domain is actually sent to Mimecast first and they forward it to our on-premise mail server. All users in the company benefit from it. Having it as our front end gives us the capability of knowing it is very unlikely an actual virus laden email makes it through while also blocking the majority of phishing type emails. It also benefits us by not having to expose our SMTP services to the internet.
- Allows you as the user to not expose your SMTP gateway to the internet. All emails go to Mimecast and you just need to allow SMTP traffic from Mimecast only.
- Very reliable in up time with rarely an issue receiving or sending mail through it.
- They have limited electronic resources available for support. It is rare that I find the answer to an issue without having to call them.
- They are frequently emailing in an attempt to sell extra services...which can be annoying.
- We have not had one email-based virus issue since implementing the system.
- When dealing with other businesses in troubleshooting email issues we always gain instant respect when they realize we use Mimecast.
The only alternate we have looked into is called Proofpoint. We did limited investigation into it and it seemed to be a similar product with fairly good reviews. But in the end since the pricing on Mimecast was so good it made no sense to consider anything else when we knew we were getting one of the best with Mimecast. Having the whole suite of Mimecast products at our disposal makes it hard to consider or compare other services.
