Proofpoint checks all the boxes

  • March 14, 2024

What do you like best about the product?
Proofpoint is intuitive, responsive, and their market coverage means they can respond to threats they've seen with OTHER customers to also protect You.
What do you dislike about the product?
Proofpoint's older management interface was relatively slow, but they've been rebuilding a new interface that is considerably faster.

Proofpoint can rarely be a little over zealous with their protection, however support is very responsive and remedies the situation quickly.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Spam protection is great, but I feel like URL rewriting is the real star of phishing protection. Knowing which links are clicked on (and being able to stop future clicks after a site is known bad) is next level.

What do you like best about the product?
I best I like is the support on the product. All techs are highly knowledge able and can help you very quickly.

I have never had a bad experience with tech support
What do you dislike about the product?
Only down side so far that i see is having so many different sites you need to access to manage the whole system.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Email security is the biggest problem it is sloving.

We also use for testing our users and trainning our users on email phishing techniques, which is very important to us.

What do you like best about the product?

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The amount of BEC it stops is impressive.

Proofpoint Review - End user Perspective

  • March 14, 2024
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The fact that I trust it. It has less positives. The threats identified are more accurate than others.
What do you dislike about the product?
I get frustrated with the many dashboards and different pages. Having more things on 1 page would be easier to see.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The problem is simple. There are tons of phishing emails targetting my company. This protection is vital if my company wants to contiue business with less risk of user account compromise or more.

Simple yet powerful email security tool

  • February 20, 2024
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Proofpoint has a simple web interface and a centralized place called Logs Search to view all emails, and from the same place you can perform various actions on quarantined emails, it is so simple.
What do you dislike about the product?
Web interfaces sometimes behave unstable and pages take so long to load.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Email Phishing attacks were one of the major security vulnerabilities that we used to face, but now with ProofPoint as the first line of defense for our email security, we can prevent phishing attacks by automatically quarantining suspicious emails.

Glad we made the switch to Proofpoint

What do you like best about the product?
Once you get settled in to an email security partner, it seems daunting to move services and make all the connector switches that need made. The onboarding team at Proofpoint was great and let us take our time to make sure this transition was seamless for our users. We also felt confident that our protection was improving after taking time to run a POC where we saw several malicious emails get past our former vendor and land in inboxes and get placed in their on-hold queue.
What do you dislike about the product?
The only change we're hoping they complete soon is improving the Admin portals. We're having to access a few different panels to gain full access to the service. They are working on that and know the process could be improved. However, for the improvement in protection and the reduction in our yearly contract rate, the trade-off is worth it.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Stopping phishing attacks and BEC's are the biggest for us. We are seeing an increase in both and Proofpoint proved they are one of the best in the business at keeping that junk out of our inboxes.
