  • August 01, 2024
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Proofpoint has a solid product that works well at protecting against email-based threats. They are very slow to release new capabilities.

It has been taking years for them to move to the new admin portal and they still aren't finished.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The product does a great job at blocking the majority of email-based threats.

Top Notch Email Security

  • July 31, 2024
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Highly customizable email security program. Combines many facets of email security and allows you to create routes and policies to protect your end users. The supports we receieve when we have questions is excellent. Can quickly determine why an email didnt get delivered, view all of the applicaible information about the email, and determine if you want it delivered or not.
What do you dislike about the product?
Some actions you can perform in the new UI,and some have to be done in the old. Seems like a few products were purcahsed to make this all come toegether, but they are getting closer to a unified dashboard.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
This is an extremely abused attack vector for ransomware. Without strong tools, our ogranization could have easily been compromised already. This also protects our outbound email by recoginzing and encrypting any emails with potentially sensitve data.

Proofpoint gives you a lot of bang for your buck

What do you like best about the product?
Proofpoint email security comes with a bundle of cyber-security tools that allow even the smallest of teams to defend against the most advanced attacks. The tools do a wonderful job determining what is legitimate and what is not legitimate.
What do you dislike about the product?
Like all tools in this space it is not perfect and there are times when illegitimate emails get through but I have noticed that only about 1-2% of the time that I have used the product after it has been tuned.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It is helping us solve the number one way that attackers get into an organization and that is stopping phishing emails from coming in and also providing the tools that allow us to automate the analysis of emails that come inwhich allow our Tier 2 and 3 analysts to focus on higher priority incidents. Their security awareness tool alone has significantly decreased the number of clicks on malicious links due to clear information that is displayed in the trainings.

Proofpoint Email Protection

  • April 12, 2024
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
ProofPoint does an excellent job of blocking and filtering threats, spam and bulk email without over blocking. The reporting is great and it is easy to searcht he logs for delivery problems. One of my favorite features though is the TRAP/CLEAR functionality. Users can submit suspect emails for anylsis and any email deemed threating will automatically be quarantined across the entire Exchange environment. In addition email retrospectivly deemed threating will also be auto qurantied from all user mailboxes across the environement. This saves a ton of time on clearing up any threat that has post delivery content or was missed initially.
What do you dislike about the product?
My one chief complaint is that the managment protals for the varios componenets are seprerated and not under s single UI. It would be super handy if all of the configuration, anlysis, and reporting wereunder a single UI.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We employ ProofPoint primarily as an SMTP security gateway. We use it for filtering SPAM and bulk email but really lean on it for detecting and removing malicious email, malware and phish emails.

Proofpoint has been a great product overall first in class among their space and product stacks

  • April 03, 2024
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Reliability and peace of mind are the biggest things that come to mind when i describe my relationship with Proofpoint. The products just work and in my experience have been the most reliable and capable of the products i have used in the past.
What do you dislike about the product?
To be honest my biggest gripe are the SLA times on support, its not bad but it could be improved and often times they surpise you on response times. However that would be my biggest gripe with the service overall.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Before we had Proofpoint managing email spam and attacks were a very intensive manual process with our prior product, it wasnt even on the level of quality that we have observe with Proofpoint. Today administration of the product is pretty light weight, even during our onboarding period we didnt get an unreasonable amount of tickets.

An excellent choice for email security!

What do you like best about the product?
The fact that ProofPoint admin panel contains all the admin tools and settings.
What do you dislike about the product?
Its too good. When performing a PenTest even though we whitelisted the domain, the phishes were still flagged as phishes. It was tough to get phsihing campaign emails into my users inboxes.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Email compromise is a huge threat vector. ProofPoint helps us mitigate risks gainst this vector.

Robust Email Security Solution

  • March 19, 2024
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Proofpoint Email Security and Protection offers several features
I almost use it every week.
The platform actively gathers data on suspicious sources and potentially malicious content. This helps administrators stay ahead of threats.
Proofpoint seamlessly integrates with popular email applications and clients, ensuring secure implementation.
Administrators can set user access privileges, allowing approved parties to access sensitive data.
Proofpoint assists with compliance related to PII, GDPR, HIPAA.
What do you dislike about the product?
While Proofpoint is robust, there are a few areas for improvement:
API integration with Crowdstrike and Defendr is great, but many time this provide a false information in our EDR tool, which unnecesssary creates multiple false postive tickets.
Due to its comprehensive functionality, new users might require time to fully grasp all aspects of the solution.
Customer Support is not that great, it may take months to solve an issue.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Helps in blocking around 98% of bad emails.
