Avanan Reviews Summary
Author infoRatingReview Summary
Vice President Information Technology at Makeready4.5I use Avanan for spam, phishing prevention, and email security, valuing its integration with Microsoft 365 and its intuitive UI. While powerful, it lacks email backup features covered by Barracuda, which feels less integrated compared to Avanan's unified dashboard.
Managing Director at Cyber Active4.0I use Avanan to enhance Microsoft Outlook email security. It's easy to install and features strong AI, but its interface and user experience need improvement. While Microsoft catches 85% of threats, Avanan impressively catches 99.7%.
Technical Head at Quoinx Technologies private Limited4.5My company uses Avanan for advanced email filtering to protect against malware and malicious emails. Customers appreciate its effectiveness, particularly for email attachments. Improvement areas include expanding DLP integrations. Previously, our customers used a Microsoft tool but faced phishing issues.
