Find out what your peers are saying about Proofpoint, Barracuda Networks, IRONSCALES and others in Secure Email Gateway (SEG)."It's a mature product. It does a good job in detection."
"The most valuable feature is the ability to remove bad messages that were delivered, prior to being classified as unwanted."
"I like all the features with Proofpoint, such as how it filters the spam and marketing mail, lost reality mail, blocks phishing attacks, blocks malicious attachments, and stops phishing links. Also it can defend against the business email compromise impersonation technique. It is a complete solution for all email attacks. It filters for the bad, malicious attachments. If there is any executable file, it can be deleted. It is a good, complete solution."
"The solution blocks malicious emails containing viruses and malware and reduces them out of spam."
"The most valuable features of Proofpoint Email Protection are ease of use, data loss prevention, antivirus, and spam protection."
"Proofpoint is the main tool for blocking spam because it denies the connection altogether."
"The spam filter for email is good."
"It was easy to set up."
"Before FireEye, most of the times that an incident would happen nobody would be able to find out where or why the incident occurred and that the system is compromised. FireEye is a better product because if the incident already happened I know that the breach is there and that the system is compromised so we can take appropriate action to prevent anything from happening."
"The features that I find most valuable are the MIR (Mandiant Incident Response) for checks on our inbound security."
"We see ROI in the sense that we don't have to react because it stops anything from hurting the network. We can stop it before we have a bigger mess to clean up."
"The solution can scale."
"Very functional and good for detecting malicious traffic."
"The most valuable feature is MVX, which tests all of the files that have been received in an email."
"The scalability has not been a problem. We have deployed the product in very high bandwidth networks. We have never had a problem with the FireEye product causing latency issues within our networks."
"I also like its logging method. Its logging is very powerful and useful for forensic purposes. You can see the traffic or a specific activity or how something entered your network and where it went."
"Proofpoint should have better integration with complex environments that need more than one instance of Proofpoint, as there are issues with nested instances."
"The incident reporting on offer needs to be improved. It's lacking right now. It should be on the platform somewhere."
"They do not have an on-demand scan for the internal viruses and internal users, and they don't have a scan for the exchange server against viruses and spam as Symantec does."
"The Secure Mail aspect should have an Outlook add-in, instead of an external dashboard that outside users have to access."
"The false positives are an issue."
"Proofpoint Email Protection could improve by reducing the price."
"The solution could lower its price."
"It's scalable, but the devil's in the details — you have to know your email volumes."
"If you want to search the hashes in the environment, you need to put in IOCs one by one, making it a very hectic job."
"Improvements could be achieved through greater integration capabilities with different firewall solutions. Integrating with the dashboard itself for different firewalls so users can also pull tags into their firewall dashboard."
"It would be very helpful if there were better integration with other solutions from other vendors, such as Fortinet and Palo Alto."
"It would be a good idea if we could get an option to block based upon the content of an email, or the content of a file attachment."
"A better depth of view, being able to see deeper into the management process, is what I'd like to see."
"We'd like the potential for better scaling."
"The product's integration capabilities are an area of concern where improvements are required."
"I would love to see better reporting. Because you can't export some of the reports in proper formats, it is hard to extract the data from reports."
