Find out in this report how the two Cloud Email solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The most valuable features are filtering and sandboxing."
"This solution is easy to install. The deployment takes about forty-five minutes."
"If there is a problem somewhere Fortinet can act on it immediately. That is very important."
"It has the best feature for processed mail analysis."
"The product's initial setup is straightforward and simple, making it an easy-to-use tool."
"FortiMail Cloud is very fast."
"The encryption features are most valuable to us."
"The scanners with FortiMail are valuable."
"One of the most valuable features is the service provided by the incident response team. There have been cases where we have suspected that emails were fraudulent or something was suspicious. In those cases, we immediately contacted the incident response team through the platform, and we had a response in less than a minute."
"Scalability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten."
"The solution’s effectiveness when it comes to detection is very good. It has a very good mechanism. It scans our emails. It identifies any threat or phishing attempts and phishing campaigns as well as any bad reputation, servers, or links, then it blocks them. This is what I find to be very good about this system."
"We haven't had a client, who uses their protection, have an email security breach. That is the best thing about what they do. We don't have to think too much. Their product just works and keeps bad emails away."
"The solution is used to block malicious items hidden inside a document or PDF file."
"One is the hardware-assisted platform that provides more insight into the threat scenarios. And the other is their instant response team's availability, 24/7, for identifying and responding to incidents. These are the two main things that everyone likes."
"The most valuable feature is the hardware-assisted platform module."
"Another feature that we really like, one that was introduced a few months back, is the way it categorizes threats into groups, such as Emotet, Qbot, Formbook, and the like. It's not only telling you that something is malware, but it's also giving you insight into what kind of malware... You understand what you are facing and whether you are a target for a specific group of threats..."
"It is slightly difficult to configure FortiMail in the cloud with Exchange on-premise, especially the quarantine mailbox access for end-users."
"The dashboard could use improvement."
"This solution is slow and it should be made faster."
"Fortinet FortiMail Cloud doesn't have AI features, making it an outdated tool for me."
"I've not been able to use more than two domains in the back end. I like to view logs for the different domains. If I add any other domain I'm not able to get a proper cPanel for that domain. I am talking about the login factors. I'm not able to see logs for different domains in a different Window. Basically, it's an issue in the login process."
"This ease of use and user-friendliness is something we believe could be improved in FortiMail."
"I can't see the feedback to the FortiMail gateway."
"The downside of this solution is that it is difficult to implement policies on FortiMail."
"Perception Point Advanced Email Security should make available more use cases."
"There is still room for improvement with BEC. There is more work to be done by Perception Point on machine learning and neuro language as well. BEC is very difficult if you don't have a computer language looking into the content of the email and trying to make a determination through that. With BEC you often don't have an attachment or a URL."
"There is room for improvement in terms of adding the DLP (Data Loss Prevention) solution, which would be a good option for Perception Point to look into."
"I think the interface could be improved in the next release."
"They could provide additional data loss prevention features as we encounter different kinds of attacks in today's scenario."
"Coming from products in the Microsoft stack, Perception Point doesn't really give you, as an admin, a lot of options to make changes yourself. It's more on their side to make changes in the back end. That's something they could improve on in the future."
"Dashboard is an area of concern in the solution where improvements are required."
"They just don't do a good job of promoting themselves. They seem like a typical busy IT company who is just working on fixing problems and making technology better. However, they are not fantastic at marketing themselves to existing partners, which is not a bad thing. It is just something for improvement."
