Overall Satisfaction with Proofpoint Email Protection
Proofpoint Email Protection is used across the entire organization. Since phishing attacks are the largest threat vector, the Proofpoint cloud solution provides a rock-solid level of protection for our end users that utilize email on a daily basis. The solution not only protects our users from malicious activity but also the loss of productivity by weeding out spam and other useless emails.
- Effectively discards spam definite emails.
- Protects users from malicious activity.
- Performance of inspection is very efficient.
- Operational availability is very high.
- Features such as TAP and others are separate packages from a price point (not bundled).
- Email quarantines are not always 100% accurate.
- Some occasional false positives with email delivery.
- Proofpoint cloud protection without the on-premise hardware is a no-brainer!
- The cost per user is relatively low given the potential high negative impact if business is brought down due to a phishing attack.
- Administrator use of the solution for a large enterprise is intuitive (not something you have to babysit daily).
We have used Proofpoint email protection for many, many years being one of their early adopters. We evaluated a competitor (Mimecast) a few years ago but for the features and price point that we got from Proofpoint, we didn't see any reason to change. Proofpoint is also a market leader, hands down.
