Good email protection and customisation
Overall Satisfaction with Proofpoint Email Protection
It is performing email security throughout the entire business. It has numerous operating brands and many different SMTP domains. The customisation available with Proofpoint allows unique branding and policies per operating company which is very valuable.
- Strong security filtering. We've not had significant threats get past Proofpoint.
- Customisation is strong. There are lots of options for unique policies.
- Mail routing has lots of options with powerful rules engine.
- Directory synchronisation configuration is clunky.
- General administration, specifically the UI is quite poor. Making changes is not intuitive at all.
- Terminology used by Proofpoint is not standard with other competing products so things can be confusing.
- Improved security.
- Increased user self-servicing, i.e. releasing email from quarantines, etc.
Works very well - probably much better in terms of feature set and customisability. The quality of message filtering is fantastic. But from an administrative perspective it is more difficult to manage than the others.
