Gains additional email security with affordability but needs deeper integration with Office 365
Hornetsecurity Email Spam Filter and Malware Protection provides a good service at an affordable price due to a special education pricing plan. This makes it an attractive option for us. It enhances our security by operating in front of the protection provided by Microsoft and effectively detecting and tagging spam and malware. Although it is difficult to make a direct comparison, its competitive pricing is a key benefit. While Microsoft detects some spam, Hornetsecurity adds another layer of detection.

Pros

"This is hands down the most valuable tool in my arsenal."
"Makes my inbox cleaner and more secure. The infomail is now neatly out of my view and I dont see all the junk I use to see when using AppRiver or just Microsofts native spam filter. I see only the things I need to see, and spoofed messages have decreased 100% throughout the organization."
"Hornetsecurity Email Spam Filter and Malware Protection provides a good service at an affordable price due to a special education pricing plan."
"IP tracing is the most valuable feature."
 

Cons

"If I had to pick my least favorite thing, I would say some of the tabs to control settings can get a little overwhelming. It can also be a little hard to read the font at certain times so possibly enlarging the details and text of the site a little to make it not so "fit" to the screen."
