Find out what your peers are saying about Microsoft, Cisco, TitanHQ and others in Email Security."The most valuable feature is protection against malicious links, fishing, and impersonation. You can train people to be aware of these threats, but they're not always careful. When they're using their phones between meetings, they click on a link, and it's game over."
"The deployment capability is a great feature."
"At the moment we are satisfied with this product. It's a stable, scalable, and resilient solution for us."

The only one thing you have to do is point all your traffic in the cloud."
"The custom alerts have to improve a lot."
"The XDR dashboard has room for improvement."
"There needs to be an improvement in integrating the product to work across multiple operating systems, and to have better support for non-Microsoft file types."

"Malware needs improvement."
"FTP server and TRUST Manager functionality."
"There are a few issues with integration that need to be addressed; this would help make deployment easier for new users."
"In the next release of this solution, I would like to see more user awareness, such as information about phishing email attacks that have been prevented."
"Reporting could have more options for users to customize desired results."
"More things need to be integrated into this device, like DLP, so we can have a complete solution in one box."
"The reporting functionality is in major need of improvement."
