Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"The tool's most valuable features are hosted SPF and DMARC records."
"It's easy to use, even for those new to IT."
"It was easy to set up."
"Proofpoint Email Protection's initial installation is straightforward. It took us less than a day to complete the implementation."
"It is a very scalable solution."
"Provides better control over emails, especially those sent via Office 365 on the cloud."
"Proofpoint is the main tool for blocking spam because it denies the connection altogether."
"The most valuable features are the business email compromise protection and targeted attack prevention."
"The tool has improved our workflow by ensuring people receive only the emails they need for work rather than being inundated with hundreds or thousands of unnecessary emails daily."
 

Cons

"EasyDMARC should improve white labeling."
"Proofpoint Email Protection's interface is confusing and could be improved."
"The setup requires expertise. It needs someone with experience on managing it, and I would rate the implementation as needing someone experienced."
"The price could be improved."
"Proofpoint should have better integration with complex environments that need more than one instance of Proofpoint, as there are issues with nested instances."
"Proofpoint Email Protection is an expensive solution."
"The Secure Mail aspect should have an Outlook add-in, instead of an external dashboard that outside users have to access."
"The reporting section could be enhanced. I like some reports but if they could allow us to create custom reports with more flexibility it would enhance the reports more."
"The largest complaint that we hear from our customers is that there is no local support."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"It is on a yearly basis. Their floor for SMB doesn't matter. The user count is 100 users and below at $2,500 a year. Its cost is higher than other solutions. It is probably about 20% to 30% higher than what you would get with Microsoft. There are no additional costs. All costs are factored in. It can be improved pricing-wise so that it is affordable for the SMB market."
"Proofpoint Email Protection has comparable pricing."
"It is expensive."
"The licensing cost of Proofpoint Email Protection is a lot higher than other solutions, such as Barracuda."
"They are competitively priced, but I have been forced to get quotes for other solutions now because they haven't been responding to requests to do the work that we would like them to do."
"We sell annual licenses for this solution."
"The solution charges per user per month to use it. There are not any additional fees in addition to the standard living fees."
"The end customer is buying our solution, which can be for monthly or annual usage depending on our payment and business model."
