Verified User Chose Webroot Email Security Powered by Zix I have never used another platform besides Zix, because when I was starting to look into it, I was asking other agencies that I saw their secure email with the Zix logo on the bottom, and they all highly recommended Zix, so I did not even need to look elsewhere.

(Hospital & Health Care, 51-200 employees) Chose Webroot Email Security Powered by Zix Our EHR system used to have an imbedded Secure Email feature that we used, but it was rather difficult, not user friendly, and even often times sent our emails to our recipients spam folders.
