215 Proofpoint Testimonials

"Proofpoint Archive is simple to use and works everyday. The cost saving were primarliy based on the effort/ Cost in retrieving e-mails from three year old back-ups. We use the product primarily to satisfy the regulators in retaining all communication to a borrower. This has also helped us to discover user compliance when exchanging information with outside parties."

"With Proofpoint in place, I was able to import all my old PST files into the archive, making it easy for me to conduct searches through my old records. A full text search takes less than 10 seconds. It's incredibly fast."

“Getting our email domains to ‘reject’ policy was something that I’ve wanted to do for years, and having a solution in Proofpoint Email Fraud Defense that enabled us to do that in a relatively quick time was great. I was really happy with the process.”

"We were tough customers, and our requirements changed as we went through the pilot program, but the people from Proofpoint were always there. Any company will do a demo and set up a trial program, but we were looking for a true partnership, and Proofpoint was with us at every step."

"We now are not worried about getting external viruses introduced to the system, and we have a lot more flexibility over the attachments. We have more real-time reporting features like load, traffic, inbounds, and we have a lot more insight into what's actually going through our systems."

"The Policy Builder by Proofpoint was by far the most comprehensive tool I found – and to make it even more appealing, it was available at no cost and was very easy to use."

"The Sentrion platform gives us the ultimate flexibility. Not only can Sentrion handle our immediate requirements, but as our business needs evolve we can easily add additional applications or even consolidate existing applications, such as our encryption product, to the Sentrion. This approach provides us with a centralized policy framework and uniform reporting across the entire infrastructure."

"As an example of scalability, in 2008, one of the clusters that makes up our email backbone had 137 unique routing targets, as of today that same cluster has 911 unique routes. In total, since 2008 our routing has expanded in complexity from 407 routes to 4475 today."

"We are considering anything that we can either virtualize in house or move to the outside world and therefore turn off a physical box. It saves us electrical power, provides reliability, ensures high availability, and it's one less box that we have to get up and running over limited power from the generator during a power outage. We also waste less Internet bandwidth because there's less illegitimate email streaming down to us. I love that it's blocked before it even touches our Internet connection. There has been zero downside to moving our appliance to the cloud."

"Our active directory (AD) organization is different because it's not very flat, but Proofpoint's rules flexibility enabled us to build quite a few totally customized AD queries. They work very well, and I don't have to think about them. It was set it and forget it, and for us, that's a big deal. We schedule the query twice a day so the information is up-to-date. If we create a new user, we don't have to go to Proofpoint and give the login to the admin console. It will automatically update at the next interval and grab that new email alias and start forwarding the messages that are sent to us."

"I was astounded at the volume of email that Proofpoint blocked. Proofpoint was by far the best at rooting out spam. Not only that, but it also provided the best tools to our end-users and let them control their incoming email."

"There isn't any maintenance or monitoring required with Proofpoint. The product has commanded no more than five minutes of my attention on any given day, freeing me up to focus on what I'm paid to do. Compared to all of the time we used to invest in managing spam, the entire process is very simple now."

"I wear many different hats in my position, and knowing that my spam problem is under control gives me the freedom to concentrate on other important projects."

"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 Proofpoint appliance went to work right away and was so accurate that it required very little adjustment on our part, It was amazing how quickly our spam problem disappeared."
