We have been using Avanan for about 3 years. We have been very happy with their responsiveness, easy to use dashboard and overall functionality.

We were having frequent spam attacks. Using Avanan has taken care of that, we have not had anything since we started using Avanan.

Epic performance for mitigating phishing and spam

  • November 10, 2020
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
It is fairly intuitive to use, integration was well supported and they are responsive and communicative when it matters. In a business such as ours that relies on email, this product cuts down on the noise a great deal, allowing us to focus more on business. Support is extremely responsive and they seem very focused on pleasing their customers. The system is swift to pass through data, so we see very little to no degradation of email delivery speeds. The management of questionable emails or DLP is easily decided by end users, almost in real time or by IT management - depending on your easily customizable setup.
What do you dislike about the product?
Avanan has still not implemented the ability to simply block by TLD extension, such as .jp or .cn . Their UI can be a little unwieldly at times, but that said they are keen on improving their product and very responsive to user feedback.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Speed to execution - one of our core directives. Our business lives in emails, so getting safe but timely emails is critical to our business. Having Avanan assist us on the human side with their team of professionals takes the pressure from me to manage quarantined and reported emails. Avanan does it all for me.

DLP has also been well automated. Our current setup warns and gate-check any outbound PII and PCI, automatically forcing EUs to think twice before divulging sensitive data. At a management level, I can easily keep an eye out for possibly leaks.

It blocks spams and malware laced emails. Also blocks user impersonation.

Avanan = easy as can be

  • November 10, 2020
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
It definitely detects a lot more malicious emails than ATP and keeps the administrators totally aware of what's happening. It also provides a great overview of the environment and most importantly protects against a lot of phishing attempts.
What do you dislike about the product?
The fact that there's no mobile app to manage the tool via a mobile device.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are being able to block a lot of suspicious emails, most of them turning out to be phishing attempts. We've noticed that the dashboards and management console provided gives us good visibility of what's happening.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
It's an economic and super easy to set up/use tool. It works great and helps with email protection.

Best change to our email security we have made in recent years

  • November 10, 2020
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
As phishing and other attacks continue to grow for our clients Avanan continues to protect them and it gives us piece of mind as an MSP. Since switching all of our clients over to Avanan we have had a greater success rate of blocked unwanted emails and less Helpdesk tickets from end users. It saves us a lot of time and energy.
What do you dislike about the product?
No complaints so far. Easy to use and setup. Very effective in the cyber security arena.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Avanan helps protect our clients against Spam and Phishing emails as well as those that contain more malicious programs and malware.

Extremely helpful & time saving service

What do you like best about the product?
Quick responses for assistance and highly detailed answers that help make sense of what issues are occurring
What do you dislike about the product?
Initial setup can be a challenge for some techs however the guide is straightforward. The creation of rules can take some time.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We're typically solving why emails were quarantined. The most beneficial for us is that we can send Avanan email headers and they assist in deciphering the issues were running into.

Avanan - Game Changer

  • November 06, 2020
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
We were early adopters and have been customers since 2016. The product from day one, once configured in less than 30 minutes, has been a "set it, and forget it". I do not have to worry about making changes to the platform. I do not have to make complicated decisions or make trade-offs in settings. Their decision to make this product super easy and not complicated is what makes them stand out and the opposite of every other email security or CASB platform out there.

I like the fact that Avanan sits behind Office 365 so we did not have to change DNS MX records, that we could take advantage of also using the Office 365 security tools as well. I think of Avanan as bolting on an upgraded turbo on my car.

The ability to mass quarantine emails or categorize emails is nice as well versus having to send out an email that something needs to be deleted.

The ability to detonate attachments in the cloud ahead of time has been the greatest email security improvement in my 20 year career. This was the initial reason why we decided to take a chance on Avanan working at an Accounting firm. We have clients or contacts that are compromised weekly and Avanan has stopped them. The best phishing engine I have worked with.

The ability to see Office 365 login attempts to watch for potential break in and account take over has been a nice feature as well.
What do you dislike about the product?
My only complaint is that I do not have one.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Avanan has solved phishing attacks and malware laden attachments. Unprecedented accuracy and protection.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Easy setup, easy use, solid performance, and the best email security platform.

Very easy to implement; saves a lot of internal resource time

  • November 04, 2020
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Was able to test drive the product before purchasing to understand the value it would add for our company.
What do you dislike about the product?
The product relies on Microsoft for how some items are classified; which can lead to inaccurate data.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Reducing phishing emails that the standard email programs don't catch, understanding where successful and unsuccessful logins are for our users and the speed to investigation & remediation. The teams make better decisions with the easy to understand data and 100s of phishing emails are filtered per day from our users' email accounts.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I would recommend proceeding with the trial; it'll quickly help you understand the value for your Company.
