Avanan Highly Recommended
What do you like best about the product?
The modular "a la carte" design and ability to choose between multiple security vendors to suit the organization's needs while providing an effective security layer to one of the largest attack vectors today - email.
What do you dislike about the product?
The web gui is not very intuitive and can be a little tricky to to navigate at times
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We've eliminated the vast majority of SPAM and Malicious emails inbound to the organization while also having better control mechanisms for outbound data leaving the organization. We've had great success using Avanan as one of our security layers for email. The fact that Avanan sits infront of Microsoft ATP as the last filter is great as it gives us capabilities that other security solutions can't offer. We've also found that ATP doesn't capture everything, and it's great to increase our security posture by layering different solutions to work in tadem, and Avanan is a great addition
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I highly recommend using Avanan and advise others to consider the security modules available for 3rd party integrations (Google Drive, Box, OneDrive, Gmail, etc.) Avanan does a great job at preventing data leakage, phishing campaigns, and malicious emails that other solutions, including O365 ATP, misses
Great insights and protection

Best software to keep email safe from spam, virus and online attacks
What do you like best about the product?
After setting up Checkpoint spam and security, we stopped getting almost all spam. There were also no incidents from virus or online attacks. Their support teams were very helpful and patient in detailing how to work with the software.Our security team is a lot more relaxed as they have a secure system in place. Also, the fact that this software was made by Check Point gives us great confidence as they are leader in the industry and know what they are doing. The software is also incredibly smart in detecting spam not just based on the senders reputation but also based on content of the email sent. This was the one software to meet all of our requirements. The pricing was also well balanced.
What do you dislike about the product?
The set up process could have been easier. Perhaps it was mistakes on our end but it was a bit lenghty process to get the software running. Sometimes the anti smap filters were too agressive but atleast that easy to fix. This agressiveness is both an advantage and a pain for regular users. We want agrressive protection but the software should be able to recognize company specific emails that cannot possibly be spam. This might be something to look into. But still one of the best softwares for this task in the market. pros outweigh the cons.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Securing our email infrastructure againgst failure from attacks and ensuring their constant uptime. Blocking spam so employees are more productive.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Go for it. It certainly solved our issue with spam.
Still #1 in security
What do you like best about the product?
I have used Check Point ever since they came out a long time ago. They are still the best as far as configuration and setting up rules and policies. The GUI web interface has always been easy to configure and understand the logic behind the GUI design.
What do you dislike about the product?
The pricing has gone up over the years. Companies like Palto Alto are just as equivalent and they seem to offer better pricing. As far as email filtering, GFI has the email security and they seem to offer better pricing as well.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are constantly getting spam emails and with the thread of phishing and viruses from emails, Check Point is able to block and stop these threats before they enter our production environment.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Easy setup and implementation. They are the leader in security since they have been in the market for a long time. There are a ton of resources and articles out on the Internet if you run into any issues/questions.
Proactive security
What do you like best about the product?
I especially like that Avanan integrates directly with G Suite and Office 365, rather than functioning as a gateway. This is great since customers don't need to change MX records as they would with a traditional email gateway solution, and prevents associated mail delivery issues.
Unlike the legacy solutions that we're used to, Avanan provides a large amount of visibility into threats/possible threats from a centralized interface and provides SSO for users, so no need to manage separate accounts.

What do you dislike about the product?
Avanan's out-of-the-box configuration can be a bit over the top as far as alerts as notifications, but these can be tuned as needed.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Avanan gives us a solution that's easier to maintain and deploy than older security solutions solutions. Additionally, its ability to integrate with user accounts directly via API allows it to be more flexible in its filtering and alerts since it can act at any time if a virus is detected, rather than just upon email send/receive.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Make sure to go through the configuration options upon roll-out since the out-of-the-box settings can be somewhat strict and may cause messages to unexpectedly go to quarantine.
