The clients mainly were using Proofpoint for email security, which is the primary use case.
We have used Proofpoint for email security.
Spam filtering from our partner perspective was very efficient; we were very happy with the functionality, as only relevant emails were allowed for mailboxes.
We used the Sandbox feature, and it was very beneficial concerning the Advanced Threat Protection feature.
From a business perspective, it was very helpful; it sped up our business flow and increased email delivery, and from a technical perspective, it was very effective.
Pricing might be a topic to consider regarding improvements.
I may advise Proofpoint to adjust marketing solutions based on each country itself.
I had experience with Proofpoint for more than 5 or 6 years.
Everything was very nice from a technical perspective, and we were very happy, especially since we used it for more than 5 or 6 years.

Positive
We are still using Microsoft Exchange, but left Proofpoint.
We stopped using this product last year, approximately ten months ago.
The product was very straightforward to install; it was very easy because we used the web interface, and simple settings definitions on the ISP site were enough for the whole setup.
At the very beginning we were working directly with the UK, but then we were redirected to a local partner, and we worked almost one year with the local partner.
We used to get a business partner in my country.
The pricing deserves a high rating for consideration.
Cost was the reason we stopped using it.
Pricing was the issue as it becomes very expensive due to the nature of local circumstances.
The integration with our on-prem Exchange was very straightforward; the only thing we did was redirect all email traffic over Proofpoint, so Proofpoint did everything independently, and we were very happy.
I am still receiving emails from Proofpoint's site.
Not using it at the moment, but in the short term we will be tackling that portion of the product as well.
We cannot provide feedback regarding Dynamics because we are not experienced enough at the moment; we have initiatives going on but did not get enough feedback from end users.
Based on my overall experience with Proofpoint, considering the cost perspective, I would rate it a 7 out of 10.
