For the actual email firewall, Proofpoint has an admin console where you can go in and search emails, see what has been delivered to whom, and all sorts of different metrics. It's a good analytics dashboard, but when you compare it to the kinds of dashboards you see in cloud-hosted solutions, it doesn't even come close to these dashboards in terms of simplicity. The cloud dashboards I've seen are the simplest I have ever encountered so far. On the other hand, none of the dashboards (for email filters, etc.) from solutions such as Cisco Cloud Email Security, Cisco Ironport Email, Barracuda Security, or McAfee are as simplified as Proofpoint's main dashboard. These other dashboards are old-fashioned, take more time to load, and require lots of clicking. In contrast, the Proofpoint dashboard is very advanced and feature-rich, and if they could make the Threat Response dashboard more similar to this main dashboard, that would be lovely. I would rate Proofpoint Threat Response a nine out of ten.

As of now, the OEM is developing new features every quarter, so I don't see or feel anything new or better is required, other than some improvements in the reporting.
