GFI MailEssentials vs. Mailprotector

Mailprotector offers a resilient solution at an affordable rate that makes it perfect for small and medium businesses. Larger organizations or businesses that are frequently targeted with phishing messages may not find Mailprotector to be the suitable. Recent phishing trends are commonly making it through their filters, so I would discourage businesses that experience frequent attacks from using this product.
