PhishingBox vs. Webroot Email Security Powered by Zix

Basically for training purposes is what we've been using it for. I understand that for expert people this program would not be much help but for the vast majority of new workers that we receive at the company is pretty well suited. The editor is good because we let the students train by creating templates.

I have already recommended Zix to a number of our coworkers in the home healthcare industry, and a number of those coworkers also use Zix, which makes it quite simple to connect with one another. Because it pertains to health care, which is an industry in which it is vital to maintain confidentiality and sensitivity, we also utilize it within our own organization to communicate with one another.

It is much simpler to configure and operate in comparison to other anti-spam applications. Zix's customer usage is comparable to that of other spam filters on the market; but, in terms of convenience of use, Zix comes out on top. Daily delivery of logs is provided, and the user is not required to sign in order for an email to be sent.

Zix is very good about response times and information. They even proactively e-mail us about known issues. I have never had an issue go unresolved, and the support team tends to answer quickly unless it's a strange, complicated request. The only time that happened was doing a search through logs, and that was entirely on me and my unfamiliarity with their flavor of Linux.

I like the ease ability of PhishingBox and I also felt like we got more training when we were using PhishingBox

Proofpoint is a major player in this space, and I believe their product is overall superior to Webroot Email Security. However, the price is much higher for products like Proofpoint, which has made it difficult to fit that into our budget. We really like using the outbound email encryption feature of Zix, and I think that has some serious competitive advantages over something like Proofpoint, and so it is nice to have that all in one platform.

• Users have improved at identifying spam.
• Fewer false positives are coming through.
• It has identified a lot of security holes from vendors (e.g. most vendors using outdated extensions that we are now able to block, creating a discussion with our users).
