Larger corporations that require identity-based encryption would benefit from the product. Smaller corporations that want a more feature-rich product with a better user experience would not benefit as much

Cons
OpenText
  • Its web-portal is pretty bare bones, unlike some competitors that are more feature-rich
  • Its documentation is also voluminous, making it hard to find something since it is spread across multiple manuals for particular features.
  • It doesn't support IMAP connections, unlike some of its competitors.

  • Exporting email (which I like to do for archiving) is awkward and slow.
  • Proton Mail Bridge (which allows access from other email readers like Outlook) sometimes has synchronization issues. Lately these just resolve themselves.

Mostly intuitive and easy to use. A bit harder if you stick with two passwords (one for the account and one for the encryption).

FPE, which was one of the reasons for the technology and capability across large organisations made it a very easy decision. Reference customers throughout the world across FinTec's. The new cloud service models are really interesting. the amount of value in their R & D teams.
