Helps to manage and implement DMARC for clients
The product helps me manage and implement DMARC for my clients. It makes the process easy, which is otherwise complicated.  The tool's most valuable features are hosted SPF and DMARC records.  EasyDMARC should improve white labeling.  I have been using the product for a year.  I rate the…

Email defenses have blocked advanced threats and provide deep visibility into risky users
The areas that have room for improvement in Proofpoint Email Protection include their cost of ownership, which is fairly high. To manage and run all their products, I have to list and manage administrators in seven or eight different places. That is too many places to keep track of since for this tool I have to go to one location, and for another tool I have to go to a different location. They need to simplify the administration management of administrators and consolidate that into one place for all their products. Access to all the different products is very scattered. For some products I go to one URL, and for different products I go to a different URL. They have a threat URL that has most of their products in it, but not all. They need to simplify the interface to show all the products I have access to in one location.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"The tool's most valuable features are hosted SPF and DMARC records."
"The most valuable features are the business email compromise protection and targeted attack prevention."
"Provides better control over emails, especially those sent via Office 365 on the cloud."
"Proofpoint provides an expandable project model, including DLP, email archiving, and encryption, which makes it a complete email security solution."
"It's very good at identifying threats."
"Proofpoint is the main tool for blocking spam because it denies the connection altogether."
"Proofpoint Email Protection is stable enough and does its job of virus, malware, and email scam detection. Setting it up is not too complicated."
"I would recommend Proofpoint Email Protection to others because it is useful, simple to use, and provides whatever is required."
"The archive feature is valuable."
 

Cons

"EasyDMARC should improve white labeling."
"The product's deployment is complex and requires technical knowledge."
"The stability and UI are the two areas of the solution with certain shortcomings that need improvement."
"The solution could be improved with the addition of PLP and email encryption features."
"Some use cases haven't been dealt with yet."
"Proofpoint Email Protection could improve by allowing more customization of the reports, such as exceptions and black-and-white lists."
"The reporting section could be enhanced. I like some reports but if they could allow us to create custom reports with more flexibility it would enhance the reports more."
"The accessibility of Proofpoint Email Protection, particularly access to product trials, could be improved. It's hard to get a trial for Proofpoint Email Protection, and many customers prefer not just to do the POC or demo but try the product out."
"The scalability can be improved, and the solution can be optimized."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"The solution charges per user per month to use it. There are not any additional fees in addition to the standard living fees."
"The tool's pricing depends on the customer's preference, offering options for an annual license or a monthly subscription. The cost varies based on factors such as the number of users and specific requirements. Overall, the pricing is competitive."
"It is multiple times more expensive, which made it very much less attractive."
"The licensing is basically $8/user."
"Annually, it costs us about $92,000. This is pretty much what it costs us. There is no additional cost."
"The end customer is buying our solution, which can be for monthly or annual usage depending on our payment and business model."
"It is on a yearly basis. Their floor for SMB doesn't matter. The user count is 100 users and below at $2,500 a year. Its cost is higher than other solutions. It is probably about 20% to 30% higher than what you would get with Microsoft. There are no additional costs. All costs are factored in. It can be improved pricing-wise so that it is affordable for the SMB market."
"Customers pay around $90,000 yearly for a 1,000-user organization, with the subscription license being the main expense, apart from implementation fees."
