What do you like best about the product?
I love the visibility provided on what users are assigned, what risk, and what they are being targeted by.
What do you dislike about the product?
I don't have any dislikes; after all these years, it's nothing but fantastic.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The service eliminated manual review and human error, enhanced user reporting, and gave us analytics and threat intelligence on what is reported.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Get a demo; there is so much to see that can't fit into a brochure. The sales team is very genuine and relaxed when meeting with, a much better experience than you're used to, where it feels like a high-pressure sales pitch.

Additional Layer of email protection

  • June 09, 2021
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Template creation for multiple tenant onboarding. It makes it easier if you ahve one template to copy off. Specifically if you have multiple tenants using your services.
Safelisting and blacklisting emails is no brainer
User digest option to give user the flexibility to release or block emails
Ability to trak daily, monthly, yearly metrics for presentation
Taps into multiple proofpoint database which automatically block links when it is marked as malicious, URL defense makes it easier to filter email links
You can refine safelist/block list in global, tenant, individual mode
What do you dislike about the product?
Navigating the dashboard was a challenge, some tabs have the same name as the other so it was confusing where I am at. It takes familiarity with the dashboard.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It filtered almost all of the phisishing emails, specifivally those that pretend to be an employee.
Users are more aware of the links that they are clicking as URL defense obsures the actual email link, this gives email recipients to think twice before they click on links.
Becuase of the user digest, system admins does not have to constantly emails caught up as spam.

Proofpoint has changed our threat landscape

  • June 09, 2021
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Proofpoint Email Security and Protection is:

- Easy to set up
- Easy to manage
- Very accurate at blocking threats
- Very accurate at blocking emerging threats

Proofpoint makes the job as a security administrator very easy. There are some solutions that require constant management in order to get full value out of the solution. Proofpoint is a set it and leave it solution. You do not need to manage the product every day. Once the professional services team finishes onboarding, there isn't much else that needs to be configured other than minimal changes unique to your organization.
What do you dislike about the product?
I do not like that you have to bounce between a few different dashboards to utilize all Proofpoint products. I know this is something they are working to resolve, but it makes it somewhat cumbersome to bounce between interfaces to see all tools. The dashboard looks somewhat outdated, but there is a new admin dashboard that is constantly being upgraded, but it still does not have all the features so you need so you have to bounce between old and new dashboards.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Proofpoint Email Security and Protection completely changed our threat landscape. We were previously using an on-premise solution from a different vendor and it was struggling to keep up with today's latest threats. Upon implementing Proofpoint, I immediately saw threats that would have previously made it past our gateway, were being blocked and the machine learning aspect of Proofpoint was learning from incoming messages to harden mail flow to our end-users. Each month after implementing Proofpoint, I saw the percentage of mail being blocked rise until we hit 99% protected. I have been thoroughly impressed with how Proofpoint has improved the overall security of our mail flow and the integration with other Proofpoint products is seamless and our threat landscape is much smaller.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Proofpoint is amazing! The product is amazing, the ease of use is amazing, the quality of support is amazing. Proofpoint has met all the needs we have required of it and so much more. If you are in the market for moving to a new email security solution, I would highly recommend Proofpoint.

Well rounded and complete email security

  • June 09, 2021
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I like how email is checked and can be tagged when it comes into our environment. I am looking forward to investigating the protection for sending email to the wrong recipient, with sensitive data, or against certain policies. I am very excited about the introduction of the micro learning and tips and want to see how they work.
What do you dislike about the product?
I like everything I saw. I am very impressed that you seem to have thought of most things we have been wanting.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The protection of our environment and giving our people clues or nudges to take a second look or stop and think before acting on a message is huge. I think making the reporting a pop-up "button" will make reporting easier (easier than looking for a button in the ribbon). I think getting people aware and thinking about security is a big challenge. Some of what I saw goes a long way in keeping security in the forefront and also makes taking additional action easier and more straightforward.

A complete and secure solution for email protection

  • June 09, 2021
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
TRAPS auto delete feature, set and forget, saves time and $
What do you dislike about the product?
Multiple dashboards, it seems like each feature was bolted on not fully baked in
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Phishing protecting mostly, spam filter is nice too.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
You need TRAPS at a minimum to really unlock the value of the product. The auto pull feature is VERY nice. Our analyst now only have to look at just a few emails per day manually. Also the Phishing button with TRAPS allows auto-response to user requests with no human input, that's great for our already stretched SOC team
