Over the past year the amount and quality of the catches has deteriorated. In all fairness, we are a Google environment and that really doesn't seem to be their focus. Maybe MS Customers have seen better performance but for us, the items they miss are too...

Ability to rewrite urls, block emails from reaching the sender, if email does contain malicious link or attachment it runs it through a sandbox and provides some analysis

It seems to not find any of the individually targeted attacks. Generally we only see the campaigns affecting tons of other clients. Perhaps we're not being individually targeted, but if we are it's not showing up.
