Long time admin/user
What do you like best about the product?
Ease of use. Proofpoint does a good job running on its own. You do not have to do to much maintenance to it. Set it and forget it, at least for the configuration.
What do you dislike about the product?
There is a bit of a learning curve with managing users, aliases, and best practices.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Primarily filters email in the cloud before it reaches our Exchange server. Proofpoint gets rid of the majority of our junk email and viruses. Secondly, it has filter policies that can be configured to block or allow specific attachment file types. We also enabled the setting to turn on email tagging to mark all emails from outside our organization with an "External" tag. And lastly, it has a URL Defense that will re-write links in emails to push them through their filter to further protect users against malicious sites.

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.
