"The email protection is excellent, especially in terms of anti-phishing policies."
"Threat Explorer is an invaluable tool for me, and it plays a crucial role in helping me discern the origins of various email campaigns, pinpointing where they emanate from, and identifying the individuals within our organization who are affected."
"The basic features are okay and I'm satisfied with the Defender."
"There are several features that I consider valuable."
"Threat Explorer is one of the features that I very much like because it is a real-time report that allows you to identify, analyze, and trace security attacks."
"A stable solution."
"Ability to create your own content-filtering policies with relative ease."
"The interface makes it really easy to administer and configure."
"The filtering aspect is the solution's most valuable feature."
"The ease of use and the security offered by the solution are its most valuable features. It also offers good information protection."
"Email encryption, because it fulfills our business needs."
"This is a stable, scalable product that provides a reliable email protection layer."
"The solution is very easy to use, especially the cloud version which is very, very simple. There are some good templates already built-in, so we can just select the template, and you will get all the necessary functionality. The only one thing you have to do is point all your traffic in the cloud."
"The most valuable feature is the URL relay protection because it protects users from phishing attacks."
"They have moved features from one console to another. Things have been moved around in the interface and it takes me time to find where certain features are."
"The company should focus on adding threats that the solution is currently unable to detect."

"We need a separate license and we don't know how to get the license that is required."
"There is room for improvement in terms of reporting."
"The only thing they should improve is the licensing model. They should stop changing it. A year ago, the five features I mentioned were included in one product. Now, three of them are bundled into one product, and you have to pay extra for the other two. I don't mind paying extra, but I don't want them to change it every year or every six months. I need to know what I'm looking at and not worry about it next year."
"The UI needs to be more user-friendly."
"I'd like some additional features any product can give me to protect our environment in a better way."
"FTP server and TRUST Manager functionality."
"Malware needs improvement."
"More things need to be integrated into this device, like DLP, so we can have a complete solution in one box."
"Reporting could have more options for users to customize desired results."
"In the next release of this solution, I would like to see more user awareness, such as information about phishing email attacks that have been prevented."
"There aren't enough advanced settings. They should offer more advanced options."
"There are a few issues with integration that need to be addressed; this would help make deployment easier for new users."
"In the advanced version, you have DLP, Data Loss Prevention, but when you buy the standard version, you don't have it."
"The reporting functionality is in major need of improvement."
