Hard on spam, easy on use

  • April 27, 2023
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Their support is excellent. I've had issues with diagnostics, and their support is fast and knowledgeable. There hasn't been any issue we couldn't figure out or work through.
What do you dislike about the product?
It can tend to be a bit aggressive, but in the grande scheme of things, I rather have this problem than it being too loose on allowances. This way, I can at least control the flow of my e-mail better.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We get a lot of multinational e-mail and protecting our servers and users from the wide variety of traffic and e-mail sources is critical for our day-to-day functions.

Very effective email filtering solution

  • April 27, 2023
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The Proofpoint email security product has been very effective in securing our email environment. The product is very aggressive, which is what we were looking for. Once set up the product is easy to maintain.
What do you dislike about the product?
Currently the product is an outdated interface that requires some time to get familiar with. Also, there is a bit of a learning curve to become effective with the product. Also some of the query options are limited.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Our previous email spam filter was not very flexible or effective. Immediately after implementation the Proofpoint system started showing benefits to the company. The product is a lot more customizable which helped us to be more effective in filtering. This was also something lacking in the old product.

Great Product that performs better than many others.

  • April 27, 2023
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The ease of implementation and delivery was great. I have been thrilled with this and many of the Proofpoint product suites and their delivery.
What do you dislike about the product?
I have found the training side to be dated and need a refresh. Second is some deliveries seem to be taking longer than promised. I know they are coming, but was hoping they would be in place by now.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The reporting side and use of AI\MI seem to have exceeded our expectations. Their other products also seem to follow that path and offer great tools for analysis.

Easy to administer Advanced Email Protection

  • February 27, 2023
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Set up was extremely easy and we were walked through it step by step with Proofpoint experts. Some of our other IT providers have simply said 'here you go' and we have had to figure it out. Proofpoint walked us through it and continues to walk us through any questions or modifications.
What do you dislike about the product?
There are a couple different portals and sometimes it can be confusing. I think for the most part we only use one and will likely forget the others or lose access to those accounts
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The biggest problem we are solving is removing the Business Email Compromise issues we encounter. We had been seeing a lot of emails pretending to be our CEO asking for gift cards and more importantly one of our HR vendors asking for some documentation
