"The analysis part is good."
"What I like the most about Trend Micro ScanMail is its easiness."
"Its integration with mail platforms is valuable."
"It does the job. Even when our clients have a very high rate of emails per second, there has been no problem."
"I like that Trend Micro ScanMail is very effective and quite strong."
"The solution's alerting and reporting are basic and could use some improvement."
"The price could be better. I think it's pretty good compared to other solutions as far as the features are concerned. It basically covers most of the stuff which we require for email security. But it would be better if they made it a little cheaper and more cost-effective. That would make it easier for us to sell it."
"The sandboxing part can be improved."
"Its user interface is pretty old-fashioned, and sometimes, it's hard to find the features that you are looking for. The user interface definitely needs some improvement."
"The weaknesses of Trend Micro ScanMail are that it doesn't fully protect ad-based web access and lacks proper security for Outlook, iOS, and web browser access."
"ScanMail was one of the best solutions a few years ago, but it is no longer the best solution because of its old-fashioned management console. Customers associate it with something that is old because there is no change in the management console. It has old icons, and it is not fresh enough. It is also not easy to use or play with. The report engine is also old-fashioned. Customers want something easier, quicker, and cleaner."
