Verified User Chose Proofpoint Targeted Attack Protection (TAP) This is the first product of its kind that I've used personally. The last 3 companies that I worked for also used Proofpoint, which includes Proofpoint Targeted Attack Protection, so I don't have a way to really compare it. I have seen that it is a leader in the industry. Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Chose Proofpoint Targeted Attack Protection (TAP) We ran both side by side and Proofpoint caught many additional spam/phishing emails. Incentivized Helpful? Mike Kelley CISO (Chief Information Security Officer) in Information Technology at EW Scripps (Broadcast Media, 5001-10,000 employees) Chose Proofpoint Targeted Attack Protection (TAP) TAP has much more robust feature sets that what we saw in Mimecast.

Incentivized Helpful? christine nagy Head of Global IT in Information Technology at Advent International (Financial Services, 201-500 employees) Chose Proofpoint Targeted Attack Protection (TAP) Proofpoint costs more than Mimecast, but their uptime in comparison has been much better over the past year. Incentivized Helpful? Sateesh Konijeti Information Technology Specialist in Information Technology at Cognizant (Information Technology and Services, 10,001+ employees) Chose Proofpoint Targeted Attack Protection (TAP) We used EOP (Exchange Online Protection) earlier and we had a POC on Proofpoint which we have been excited to use and the results are positive. Before Proofpoint, we had many issues with impostors. We were having hard time to get EOP (Microsoft) to proactively blok any of the … Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Chose Proofpoint Targeted Attack Protection (TAP) Again, not wanting to disclose competition - But this product stacks up well against other vendors we looked at. Incentivized Helpful? Jane Updegraff Senior Systems Administrator in Information Technology at DRT Holdings, Inc. (Aviation & Aerospace, 501-1000 employees) Chose Proofpoint Targeted Attack Protection (TAP) Proofpoint and Mimecast do almost the same thing.

We haven't evaluated any other solutions like TAP. It was a natural course for us to layer on top of Proofpoint Email Protection. Incentivized Helpful?

Verified User Chose Proofpoint Targeted Attack Protection (TAP) Feature-wise identical. Mimecast was very affordable compared to Proofpoint.

Verified User Chose Proofpoint Targeted Attack Protection (TAP) It is terrible, especially for the cost. If I am going to pay for a Lamborghini I expect performance.
