Proofpoint Review
What do you like best about the product?
Proofpoint is able to block unwanted emails at the percentage we would expect. It is a proxy based service so we do no have to grant additional access into our systems which could lead to a security event.
What do you dislike about the product?
The proofpoint GUI needs to be updated and often used items should be much easier to find. The majority of the time I use proofpoint for the same things, but have to dig too far to find and resolve.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Proofpoint blocks the majority of mail that would otherwise hit our systems and ultimately users. The fact that it removes that burden is the most important benefit.

Advanced email security tool
What do you like best about the product?
Real time monitoring of the emails which helps stopping malicious mails.
If a malicious mail is sent to 100 people and 5 clicked on that so proofpoint let us remove the mails from 95 people inbox and lets us focus on 5 infected users.
It helps us to add keywords in the inappropriate word list which is used while checking the contents of the mail. Even if the mail attachment is not malicious or the sender is not in the malicious list still proofpoint will block the mails.

What do you dislike about the product?
Sometime proofpoint detects the malicious email after it has reached user's inbox. Sometime this can happen if a new threat actor is active and intelligence came later after some hours. But few times the alert can came after some days also. It is difficult to contain the attack if the alert comes late.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It helps to block spam mails, attachments, malicious urls and abusive content mails automatically. It helps to safeguard the email which is the most used way to start a attack nowdays.

Proofpoint provides great products
What do you like best about the product?
They have good visibility into email and many settings that can be configured. Using Smart Search, Proofpoint Archives, and TAP together allows for a full visibility of emails sent throughout the org. There is also regulatory and compliance rules in place in the configuration page. Most of these policies are out of the box, meaning that we can use what Proofpoint has already created to be in compliance with regulatory bodies. We can also create more policies as needed. When it comes to DLP, these rules are great. We can apply these rules and policies, or restrict them, based on certain Policy Routes. These Policy routes are easy to create and configure and apply to various rules. This can help us prevent our users from emailing out SSNs, credit card numbers, and things of that nature.
What do you dislike about the product?
There are several different URLs that are necessary to visit to access all of the features of Proofpoint. Having a single pane of glass to see everything would be nice. Some websites are more advanced and modern looking that others. Some look old. But functionality is there. Having a more modern look and responsive feel would help with overall enjoyment of using the product.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Finding malicious URLs and attachments in email through TAP. We also see other ways that threat actors pose threats. Proofpoint is very accurate when detecting BEC with TAP also.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Buy this is you want to be able to review email that your users are sending.
