“We had outages in our previous email security solutions that interrupted service to our end users. With Proofpoint, we’ve experienced improved uptime and better service-level response.”
“We’ve come a long way with what we have accomplished in our awareness program, and we’ve seen real results with Proofpoint. Over the past three years, we’ve seen an 80% decrease in people entering passwords into our phishing exercises.”
"Proofpoint increased detection and filtering accuracy right from the start. It hit that balance of not overwhelming our team with lots of small annoyances while keeping the bad stuff out."
"We were using an appliance-based product, which dramatically slowed inbound email and required ongoing IT maintenance to manage numerous hardware and software upgrades, The effectiveness was nowhere near our standards and meanwhile, was costing us significant IT dollars and resources."
"By stopping the thousands of emails from entering the network, our mail servers don’t have to work as hard and we have saved a lot of bandwidth as a result. What’s more, Proofpoint is able to monitor and classify any sensitive information – such as credit card numbers or social security numbers – in an email, so that this information is encrypted and flagged to us and remains protected and in line with regulatory compliance mandates."
"Proofpoint's protection solution analyzes two-million messages per day and is blocking over 80 percent off the top. Only about 200K to 250K messages are coming through as legitimate emails. Over the past two weeks, we had 170 real phishing messages and not one got through."
"The results were amazing. After a weekend of testing,my director asked me on Monday morning what we changed, because his inbox was suddenly free of spam."
"The other vendors did not offer a product that would work well in the education sector. They had basic anti-spam and anti-virus solutions, but with Proofpoint we are able to pick and choose from an extensive range of additional security features for further protection of our network. This is important to us because it allows us to choose services that are specific to our education needs and vulnerabilities."
"Proofpoint was the only solution that met all of our requirements. The other products didn't provide the level of flexibility, accuracy and support that we were looking for."
"All in all, we had a very bad experience with McAfee and Ironmail."
"I have had a couple of searches that produced 500 emails, and the Proofpoint system was not only amazingly quick, it provided clean results."
"Our email security solution was Linux-based, meaning that only select Linux experts on staff could handle support."
"We did a very detailed cost analysis when we were considering Proofpoint, and we found that the savings would be significantly cheaper on an annual basis for us to implement Proofpoint than to continue to maintain our in-house solution."
"Proofpoint Enterprise Governance works with our SharePoint sites in a way that's totally invisible to users, Every document that enters the SharePoint system automatically gets ‘tagged' with the document equivalent of an RFID tracking chip."
"We have some organizations that have unusual internal network issues. In order to get information to them, you only have a few options. Proofpoint offers users multiple ways to handle files that are hard to open due to network issues."
