    I will certainly recommend Cisco Secure Email to my friends/colleagues, one look at the dashboard/statistics will actually convince any IT professional to use this product. We noticed an outstanding improvement in Email quality, most of the SPAM emails are caught, and our users have never been happier!

    Spams are getting
    common for almost all companies either big or small so this tool is also
    becoming a necessity for almost everyone. This tool has all the essentials to
    protect the emails box from threats like spam filters, blacklists, and also
    archive emails to ensure the availability of emails if there would occur any
    mishap. and what makes it a bit unsuitable

    is its expensive rates and support team.

    Pros
    Cisco
    • Manages Junk Mail Well-We configured and tested our configuration to filter out the majority of junk mail hitting our inboxes.
    • Manages Graymail-We configured and tested our Cisco ETD for graymail filtering and reduced the amount of unwanted advertising and other legitimate emails.
    • Creating unique policies that were tailored to block or allow emails from certain senders.
    • Stopped malicious email traffic (e.g., malicious attachments and links) with rules for identifying and stripping potentially malicious attachments or links.
    • Allows easy configuration for other email security measures such as SPF, DMARC and DKIM.
    • Cisco engineers provide an annual free security health check. We took advantage of several security health checks where Cisco certified engineers go over the security setting of our Cisco ETD. We were provided a written report that highlighted strengths and weaknesses of our Cisco ETD setup.
    • Monitoring email traffic flow is almost overwhelming with the amount of information you can obtain from the portal. This gives valuable information to IT staff in terms of volume and type of emails the company is receiving.

    • Spam Filteration: it helps in filtering our junk and spam mails that can have any kind of ransomware or any other threat.
    • Blacklist: Its blacklist feature is another great feature.
    • Installation: We didn’t need any IT guy to help us in the implementation of this tool as it offers an easy installation.

    Cons
    Cisco
    • The web interface is definitely dated
    • The software updates to the user interface and the documentation online are not congruent. Some docs are old and information is lacking to make changes
    • The email filtering and email search features are really dated. And other tools are more user friendly

    • Expensive rate of its subscription.
    • Its notification feature sometimes provides false alerts.
    • To figure out the problem related to its notification we tried to reach out to its team but they didn’t even respond properly and took a lot of time.

    There is a 50/50 chance that we will renew. We are in the middle of moving from on-prem to the cloud so we may not need it once we are fully migrated.

    Usability
    Cisco
    Good interface, easy to use and set up. If there were any issues, there is very good documentation and videos that one can follow for additional setup and best practices. As typical with most Cisco solutions, there are more features than needed for our purposes but good to know they are there in case of future needs

    Strong support with fast response. TAC can suggest best mail policy regarding customer challenges Some cases they need to do patch directly to appliance. TAC does not need to remote the appliance through our laptop. They use secure connection to appliance, check the logs and response through the problems

    Cisco SETD, with a broad deployment and full integration with Microsoft 365 gives us a strong protection, especially where we can leverage its strengths: Microsoft‑365 integration, mailbox remediation, policy enforcement, and your visibility across Cisco tools.


    Proofpoint is better around user awareness (warning tags etc.), and continuity/archiving. Considering that we have a full Cisco stack, choosing Proofpoint would come with higher cost, learning curve, possible redundancy of features, licensing complexity.

    I had heard a lot about SpamTitan and this compelled me to
    buy this product but I recognized that it was not worth the hype it was just an
    overrated tool. It wasn’t having advanced features but was just following a
    monotony. and other than that the Price was an issue. Although we are paying
    high for Comodo too at least we are getting something in return but in the case
    of Spam Titan, we were getting nothing so it was simply lost and Comodo is
    totally a Win-win Situation for me and my company.
