What do you like best about the product?
The overall products is fantastic, it offers real time details.
What do you dislike about the product?
Overall the products offers all what is written and it is not something that I don't like
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The issues in regards to the attacks through e-mails were one of the most challenging part for us. Through Avanan Cloud Email Security we were able to overcome some internal issues which were founded by our team.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
In case you need san boxing and an ant-phishing tool, avanan is the best on offering such thing :).

Avanan is one stop shop for Email Security

What do you like best about the product?
I have been using Avanan for last 1 year and must say it does what it promises. It has all the key features and tools to keep end users safe from malware. phishing attacks and so much more. Everything is automated for us while the scan and protect is done all behind the scenes. Avanan is the way to go for email security!
What do you dislike about the product?
I personally don't have any dislikes since the user interface is well laid out and simplified to use. It has a nice dashboard that gives overview of email protection! As far it works, I got no issues at all!
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We have around 8 domains on Office 365 platform and have connected all of them with Avanan for filtering purpose. Avanan is helping to stop and block suspicious emails to end users.

Being able to identify which users are at risk for phishing and social engineering attempts and then taking the right course of action that they are equipped to deal with those tactics.

There aren't really any downsides, other than the fact you have to pay for it.

We are now realizing the dividends paid for Security training and ensuring that staff understand the dangers of phishing attempts.

What do you like best about the product?
The ease of use and how intuitive the web console is.
What do you dislike about the product?
The AI can't figure out impersonation emails by reclassification and needs a whitelist rule.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We have reduced the number of phishing emails that our users receive by almost 100%. Has reduced the amount of manual remediation that we would have to do on a regular basis.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Best product for the pricing.

A must have tool for every MSP looking to offer robust security to their clients

  • December 14, 2020
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Avanan has been instrumental in warding off the latest phishing and spam attempts inside our organization as well as our clients, it was SUPER easy to implement and we haven't had a single issue since we signed up with them. The user friendly dashboard makes it easy to navigate and I find myself using the built in tools instead of the ones provided by Microsoft. Every staff member that I have dealt with at Avanan has been top notch and super friendly. They provide us with all the necessary tools and marketing materials to go to our clients.
What do you dislike about the product?
The only downside I have found so far is the inability to have only certain users covered, currently I am protecting entire companies which is great but I have some clients that only wish to have a handful of users covered. I am told this feature is right around the corner
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Avanan has helped me sleep better at night knowing that they have me and my clients covered. With the dramatic uptrend in phishing and spam attacks, Microsoft's ATP wasn't catching everything. Avanan has certainly stepped up to the plate and I wonder why I even bothered to sell ATP in the first place.

Fastest implementation EVER!

  • December 14, 2020
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
API-based integration, easy implementation, immediate results, "soft" approach to changes
What do you dislike about the product?
This is not directly related to AVAVAN but you will have to check your licensing levels, especially for messaging apps (SLACK and Teams) in order for AVANAN functionality to work. This was not specifically spelled out in AVAVANs white papers.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Email and messaging security, DLP
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Onboarding team is top notch. Use your trial time to set up the environment, if done right transition to Production will take minutes

"Avanan makes an amazing product"

  • December 14, 2020
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Everything was super easy to setup and manage, the interface itself is very intuitive. We didn't see how many are passing through Office filters until we install Avanan. So far the product has not disappointed, rather it's helping better than any other product we have ever used.
What do you dislike about the product?
what can you dislike about a product that actually WORKS!!!!! if I has to pick one thing, it would be the delay when manually selecting item to send to spam or quarantine.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We use Avanan to stop what Office 365's fails to identify and quarantine phishing attempts. So far we have eliminated the vast majority of SPAM and malicious emails. I was very surprised to see how many actually sneak through some of the 365 filters, and now we have something that does more then just Office365, we can scan dropbox, onedrive, etc...
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Avanan makes life easy, the ui is made well, don't have to dig for information, everyting is right there.

Get email security off your plate!

  • December 14, 2020
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Avanan took legitimately less than 10 minutes to set up for our trial, and hooking it into Office365 was easy and straight-forward. Simplicity. Why would you want to manually manage email security all day long or even create rules and policies or add complexity to your environment when a solution like Avanan Email Security does it for you.
What do you dislike about the product?
It's not so much of a dislike as the only part that takes effort, but it does take some time to dial in your solution customized to fit your company.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I have a lot of users managed by a tiny IT team so I'm always looking for ways to simplify tasks that eat up much of our time. There is a lot of competition in this space, so i'd get a trial going, There is no MX redirect so you can test live with limited or even test users, ( I did mine live). Once you dial in on your settings you don't see any false positives and it's rare I see hard to detect social engineering/Phishing attacks get through.
