Overall Satisfaction with Zix Email Encryption (ZixEncrypt)

Zix has helped us remain compliant with industry regulations regarding email encryption and data loss prevention. It is easy for end users to encrypt and send emails through the Outlook plugin. It also protects our users from accidental disclosure by automatically encrypting mail using the rules we have configured. Zix also transparently encrypts emails to other organizations using Zix which is fairly common in our industry.
  • Automatic end to end encryption to other Zix users.
  • Easy for users to specify they would like mail encrypted with the Outlook plugin.
  • Prevents against accidental disclosure of sensitive information over un-encrypted email
  • Zix management interface could use updating.
  • Zix reporting interface could be more granular.
  • Zix management and reporting interfaces are separated.
  • Easy for end users to operate to ensure security initiatives are being met.
  • Ensures regulatory compliance in regards to email security.
  • Provides piece of mind to members that their data is secure.
The recommendation by our regulatory body was of much importance when considering Zix. It also achieved our goal of encrypting email being sent outside of our premises and provides an easy end user experience.
Zix, with the Outlook plugin, makes it easy for users to ensure they are sending mail in an encrypted fashion. It is used very often by departments sending sensitive information across the Internet.

Using Zix Email Encryption (ZixEncrypt)

The end user experience is seamless and effective. Users can easily send an encrypted email by simply using the 'Encrypt and Send' button provided by the Outlook plugin. The only detractor is the administrative ease of use. The administrative interface feels outdated and clunky to navigate.
