What do you like best about the product?
Web portal and app access make it available everywhere. Seems to be very thorough

The learning curve of administration after the initial setup is sharp. Took a long time to get used to the general workflow and location of things in Mimecast admin portal

Spam and spoofing attacks. The security settings have really helped minimize the amount that used to slip through to our users.

Past outage communication was lacking but has been addressed since the last major outage.

It's a great product if you have problems with phishing & impersonation emails getting through.

Mim3cast Email Security

  • May 26, 2020
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Mimecast has provided our organization with a good tool to help with the email security and Threat Protection. They have done a very good job in stopping and managing the threats even with the latest with COVID-19.
What do you dislike about the product?
I am a little disappointed with the continued new features and having to add additional licenses when you are already paying the maintenance fee for the product. I would think some of these should be added as features not necessarily a new module.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Email Security from the standpoint of spam filtering and virus threats. The solution has done a very good job with this. Threat protection has been very good, however with Phishing, while it has been good, there have been instances that items should have been caught, but weren't.

Wonderful product that improves my security.

  • May 09, 2020
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Mimecast is an overall wonderful product and works just as intended. As this is a SaaS deal, it is simple and fast to build, as well as to configure and also the overall reliability is all that we expected. In addition, Mimecast has continued to innovate in order to improve our overall reliability, which is crucial to our role before the curve.
What do you dislike about the product?
The only thing I had with Mimecast was that it isn't the easiest to access administrative console and it's typically sluggish. While it's very easy to use the end consumer facing elements and there's also not much awareness, the administrative interface seems to be designed by designers with fewer end user perspectives. Moreover, browsing is much slower than other sites.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Improve the productivity between the employees, organized email flow - several of our staff leave their email directly, and it is necessary to maintain it as filtered as general safety as possible. Fewer junk mail streaming without any appropriate checks. Many viruses as well as malware and ransomware attacks can be eradicated by email and by Mimecast!
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I tend to have a really good overall experience. The amount of spam that reaches our company has decreased considerably.
