We switched to Perception Point as it has better reviews than other competitors in email security scenarios.
How was the initial setup?
The initial setup of Perception Point, whether deployed on-premises or in the cloud, was straightforward and efficient. The installation and configuration process took approximately an hour, including onboarding and DNS settings. Compared to other email security solutions, it was a quick setup process, requiring minimal time.
What was our ROI?
The product generates a good return on investment.
What other advice do I have?
Some features related to the user interface need improvement. While the pricing for email security alone remains reasonable, their additional offerings for collaboration apps like Teams, Zoom, and other web security vendors might entail a slightly higher cost.
I rate Perception Point Advanced Email Security an eight out of ten.
