    Unfortunately all these products are better in almost all aspects. It is not to discredit the Trustwave, but they have much to improve in this area.

    The most appropriate scenarios to implement email security is in companies that want to protect the use of electronic mail since it is one of the security breaches that are currently used to perform any type of attack. Very effective integration with Office 365 and it is highly recommended to add the functionality of advanced malware protection

    In a medium company, it is suited since the cost can be high for a smaller one.
    I think there are better and more complete products for companies with higher volume or levels of confidentiality. While it is a good product, today there are several that exceed it in quality and functionality.

    Pros

    • By having the physical appliance, it is more granular the control that is had of the users, which also accelerates the speed of detection of threats.
    • The few options of DLP that it has are very useful when filtering sensitive data, but I stress "few".
    • The interface is intuitive, but for more advanced options, it requires a higher than average knowledge of these systems.

    Cons
    Cisco
    • Outlook integration in terms of a plug-in would be great. Currently, users can't add something to a blacklist or whitelist directly from Outlook.
    • Management of the platform is done from two portals the ESA and SMA. It would be nice to have it all in one management portal.
    • A quick start management guide would be nice. The manual is over 1,000 pages, so there is definitely a lot of functionality in this service.

    • I know it is not a DLP since there is another specific product for it, but they could do it just a little easier for the average user.
    • An intuitive interface in a broader aspect, not only in the basic functions.
    • The option only in the cloud is good, but only the appliance offers all the functionalities.

    Support Rating
    Cisco
    Cisco TAC support is very good since they have engineers available 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. Important to mention that you must have the support of the solution enabled to be able to receive a response from TAC and that we can be taken care of. The only drawback may be that they will not be able to see settings of the email provider you use.

    Cisco was at least better than or equal to the others but within our budget. It provided all of the services of anti-spam, content filtering, anti-virus, DLP, encrypted email service, scalability, and more than the others. Cisco name and reputation were also key in our decision.

    • While it is a good product, today there are several that exceed it in quality and functionality.
    • In a medium company it is correct, since the cost can be high for a smaller one and it is not worth it.
    • It is a basic product, compared to others of the same type
