Excellent "in the background" email protection

  • February 09, 2024
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Once its setup its virtually set and forget. Just the odd bi-monthly reviews. Its quite feature rich, the customer support has also chaned over the years and is now more geared towards logging a ticket through the portal
What do you dislike about the product?
The AdCon can be quite finnicky when using Azure SSO. It can take a couple of attempts to get logged on, or it will sometimes randomly kick you out, so you need to log back in. Also, a lot of the features are Add-Ons and cost more
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It helps to keep all our emails secure and archived

Highly customizable and comprehensive email security tool

  • February 05, 2024
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Mimecast's offering has a solution for just about any need. There is a vast number of configuration options available to make this fit your organization. What really sets them apart is their top notch support. When you have a question or need configuration support you can usually find the answer you're looking for in their robust documentation. Even better though is their support staff. You can call and get the answer you need first try from the first agent you speak to. They are always knowledgable and eager to help you with whatever you're working on fixing, investigating, or configuring.
What do you dislike about the product?
Their user interface in the admin portal sometimes feels dated and not intuitive. Once you get the hang of "Mimecast's way" of doing things it's no problem but there is a learning curve to their tools.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Mimecast helps to protect our users from spam, malicious attachments, malicious URLs, and a number of email related attacks.

Solid, powerful email management

  • February 02, 2024
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
It provides options not found or not easily accessable in Exchange online. It's a solid backup strategy when using Echange. There are lots of options and they are continuing to add more features. Support is smart and quick. Customer service goes out of their way to help.
What do you dislike about the product?
The interface can be daunting at first. It does take some time to get to know where things are. Pricing can be higher than other options which can be a challange to get approval.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Phishing prevention options are nearly endless. I've seen drastic reductions and it's very configuable.

Providing great functionality to ensure email is secure and DLP rules configured preventing data loss scenarios and potential.

  • Review provided by PeerSpot

What is our primary use case?

We use the solution for email security.

How are customer service and support?

The technical support team could respond faster. They provide good services, but it could be better.

How would you rate customer service and support?

Positive

How was the initial setup?

The initial setup process is simple. It takes around a few hours or less than a day to complete as it is a cloud service. We have to configure the main server and redirect it to Mimecast server. It requires one or two engineers to work on deployment and maintenance.

We took help from the reseller to implement the product.

The product generates a return on investment in terms of a high level of protection from external emails, both incoming and outgoing.

The product has good pricing in terms of return on investment. We purchase its yearly license. Extra costs are involved for first-time installation, but they are manageable. I rate its pricing a seven out of ten.

We worked on a POC for Proofpoint. Based on customer reviews worldwide, we switched to Mimecast Email Security with Targeted Threat Protection.

The solution has good performance and excellent technical support

  • September 28, 2023
  • Review provided by PeerSpot

What is most valuable?

The solution's performance is good.

What needs improvement?

The solution is complex and not easy to use.

I have to continuously manage the tech in a different space with the solution. I've got to manage different types of rules separately.

For how long have I used the solution?

I have been working with Mimecast Email Security with Targeted Threat Protection for three years.

How are customer service and support?

The solution’s technical support is very good.

How would you rate customer service and support?

Positive

How was the initial setup?

The solution's initial setup requires a bit of additional consultancy. Mimecast manages things differently, and they have a country-based support framework. Since we have multinational customers and have instances in the UK and Australia, we've got to work through different support sectors.

What other advice do I have?

Mimecast could simplify the solution and include a central console like the one Microsoft has.

Overall, I rate the solution a nine out of ten.
