Pricing that is competitive, excellent technical support, and email security
They do a better job of distinguishing between what's real and what's not than most of the other solutions we've tried. They are very easy to use. We don't have as many problems with email security.

"One of the most valuable features is the protection against vulnerabilities, particularly through virtual patching."
"We have had very good results from the use of FireEye Email Security. We are very comfortable with this technology, but I don't know if it's necessary to move into the cloud, we will check other technologies and study them. Additionally, the solution has good integration."

Cons

"Email security checks contain a small number of false positives."
"It needs to make sure that the application is up to date with new attacks. They should also send us the demo or introductions for their new incoming features."

"I would like to see this solution become more flexible."
"FireEye needs single sign-on. They say it's on their roadmap. They should also implement support for Microsoft Authenticator app for 2FA."
"If they want to be the primary or best solution, they need to have better email management features."
"The solution must provide features to scan QR codes for threats."
"The spam detection feature could be better."
"There is a need for improved integration with totally different products, such as a rapid server."
"The custom tailoring is limited."
