## KnowBe4 Cloud Email Security (Formerly Egress) Reviews
  ### 1. Helpful Investigation UI, But Too Many Emails Slip Through the Filter

**Rating:** 2.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Jordan M. | Senior IT Engineer, Medical Devices, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** April 28, 2026

Very helpful user interface for investigations into suspect emails.

**What do you dislike about KnowBe4 Cloud Email Security (Formerly Egress)?**

Many problematic emails make it through the filter compared to other systems.

**What problems is KnowBe4 Cloud Email Security (Formerly Egress) solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Email filter to catch suspect emails, and helpful tools for investigating emails that have been reported to us.

  ### 2. Effortlessly Improves Email Security with Intuitive Features

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Ricky R.

**Reviewed Date:** November 19, 2025

**What do you like best about KnowBe4 Cloud Email Security (Formerly Egress)?**

I appreciate using KnowBe4 Cloud Email Security (Formerly Egress) because it effectively protects employees from both inbound and outbound email threats and aids in human risk mitigation. I value its capability to reduce risks associated with phishing, accidental disclosure, and providing insights about the riskiest users. The banners are a standout feature, automatically adding visual cues based on risk levels, which help users notice them easily and stay informed about potential threats. Additionally, it efficiently filters out unwanted spam and 'Graymail,' which reduces the noise in our inboxes significantly. The software integrates seamlessly with Microsoft 365, and the initial setup was very easy, with the implementation team making the onboarding process one of the smoothest I have ever experienced.

**What do you dislike about KnowBe4 Cloud Email Security (Formerly Egress)?**

The reporting could be better. I get a great dashboard but would love the ability to make custom reports much like my KnowBe4 phishing awareness portal. I would also like for PhishER and the Abuse mailbox to be merged.

**What problems is KnowBe4 Cloud Email Security (Formerly Egress) solving and how is that benefiting you?**

I use KnowBe4 Cloud Email Security to protect against email threats, reduce phishing risk, filter spam, and highlight risky users with banners, enhancing security and risk awareness.

**Official Response from Isa Munoz:**

> Thank you for your wonderful feedback on our threat protection capabilities and seamless Microsoft 365 integration, Ricky! We're thrilled to hear that our implementation team delivered such a smooth onboarding experience. We appreciate your suggestions about enhanced custom reporting and PhishER integration with the Abuse mailbox. Your input helps us understand how to better unify the admin experience across our security ecosystem.

  ### 3. Outstanding Email Security with Smart Tagging and URL Protection

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Philip P. | Information Systems Manager, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** October 22, 2025

**What do you like best about KnowBe4 Cloud Email Security (Formerly Egress)?**

How it manages email security at the user-level, the email tags that clearly tell the recipient what the risk of the email is and gives an opportunity to educate the recipient by clicking on the tag, and the "bublewrapping of URLs" that actively checks all links at the time of receipt and time of click to ensure it is going to a trusted location.

**What do you dislike about KnowBe4 Cloud Email Security (Formerly Egress)?**

Honestly, so far we have been very happy with the product, and I look forward to it getting more integrated with PhishER+ and other KB4 Security tools.

**What problems is KnowBe4 Cloud Email Security (Formerly Egress) solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Securing Email at the end-user level, through active ML/AI that learns patterns and catches phishing emails that other vendors have a hard time with.  It also serves as an additional layer of end-user education on data awarness through the smart tags that users can click on and gain more insight.  It also keeps all URLs protected, so no URL re-directs can successfully bypass these checks.  Regardless of URL the landing point is always checked at time of click and protected if required.

**Official Response from Isa Munoz:**

> Thank you for this excellent review and for highlighting the educational value of our smart tagging and real-time URL protection! We're happy to hear how effectively our AI/ML is catching sophisticated threats and providing that crucial extra layer of user awareness. We share your excitement about deeper integration across the KnowBe4 ecosystem, and we're actively working to create an even more unified security experience for our customers.

  ### 4. Great Email Security, but Dashboard UI Needs Improvement

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Steven K. | Technical Support Analyst, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** October 22, 2025

**What do you like best about KnowBe4 Cloud Email Security (Formerly Egress)?**

Egress is able to add the links into all of our emails to warn our staff about external email, suspicious mail, phishing emails, etc. It alleviates concerns from my end regarding end user mail.

**What do you dislike about KnowBe4 Cloud Email Security (Formerly Egress)?**

The rebranding itself was a little confusing to navigate and the UI of the dashboard leaves a bit to be desired for myself since I don't live within it very often.

**What problems is KnowBe4 Cloud Email Security (Formerly Egress) solving and how is that benefiting you?**

It's helping me solve user mail reporting, scams, phishing attempts, etc. As now all of our mail comes stamped with a heading that lets my user make their own informed decision before even opening the item.

  ### 5. Great visibility and Efficient Bulk Remediation,

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Stewart H. | IT Manager, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** October 28, 2025

**What do you like best about KnowBe4 Cloud Email Security (Formerly Egress)?**

Great visibility into the email traffic. I also like the ability to easily see similar malicious emails and remediate them in bulk.

**What do you dislike about KnowBe4 Cloud Email Security (Formerly Egress)?**

at times it would be nice if dangerous emails could be remediated from the list instead of opening them.

**What problems is KnowBe4 Cloud Email Security (Formerly Egress) solving and how is that benefiting you?**

We needed a system to help combat malicious emails and 365 can not get it done on its own.

  ### 6. Smart Banners and Graymail Are Game Changers, but Phish Blocking Needs Improvement

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Scott J. |  Vice President of Information Technology, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** October 14, 2025

**What do you like best about KnowBe4 Cloud Email Security (Formerly Egress)?**

The smart banners and graymail have been a true game changer for our company. We have cleaned up inboxes of clutter and allowed our people to focus on important email.

**What do you dislike about KnowBe4 Cloud Email Security (Formerly Egress)?**

I would like it to be a little more forceful in its blocking of phish emails when they are reported. We do also still have the occasional emails make it through all the filters that is obviously malicious.

**What problems is KnowBe4 Cloud Email Security (Formerly Egress) solving and how is that benefiting you?**

It helps to block phishing attacks. With Graymail folders and segregation, it also help productivity.

  ### 7. Excellent product

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Duncan S. | IT Applications Manager, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** July 14, 2025

**What do you like best about KnowBe4 Cloud Email Security (Formerly Egress)?**

The administration console is well arranged and gives a clear overview of what malicious emails have been processed. Installation was straightforward and support steered us through configuration.

**What do you dislike about KnowBe4 Cloud Email Security (Formerly Egress)?**

It's easy to allow it to simply do its job and become less alert to threats because they are blocked.

**What problems is KnowBe4 Cloud Email Security (Formerly Egress) solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Reduces the risks of incoming emails.

  ### 8. Egress has been a great replacement for Mimecast!

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Legal Services | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** May 13, 2025

**What do you like best about KnowBe4 Cloud Email Security (Formerly Egress)?**

Egress engineers made this deployment go very smoothly, there are almost too many positives to list but the most important pieces of Phishing and Ransomware detection have caught attacks that our former vendor and Microsoft Online protection have not caught in the past.    The DLP feature has been great and has stopped multiple misdirected emails one of which could have been very harmful.  The users love the Graymail folder and it really helps keep inboxes free of newsletters and solicited emails which has definitely enhanced productivity.

**What do you dislike about KnowBe4 Cloud Email Security (Formerly Egress)?**

The only enhancement request I would have is that when you mark something as "not graymail" it would move the message into the users inbox.

**What problems is KnowBe4 Cloud Email Security (Formerly Egress) solving and how is that benefiting you?**

It protects against human error and greatly reduces the probability of a data breach which is invaluable.

**Official Response from Isa Munoz:**

> Thank you for sharing such a comprehensive review of Cloud Email Security! We're thrilled to hear about your smooth deployment experience and how our advanced detection capabilities are catching threats that other solutions missed. I'll share your suggestion about the Graymail folder functionality with our team. Thank you for being a valued KnowBe4 customer!

Lack of reporting and alerting. Some features were not as described duing sales process. Long ongoing implementation of solution unexpected.

  ### 14. Egress has shown us things we would not have seen

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Broadcast Media | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** December 29, 2023

**What do you dislike about KnowBe4 Cloud Email Security (Formerly Egress)?**

Works great when there are no problems, Microsoft can be difficult to work with when there are delivery issues. Egress are moving toward a Graph API which will resolve these problems.

**What problems is KnowBe4 Cloud Email Security (Formerly Egress) solving and how is that benefiting you?**

It has supercharged our email security, where it adds value is the amount of mail the standard MS email security would have missed. An added advantage is it's been able to show us unsecure recipients, highlighting the need to use secure mail for these endpoints. When I check the reports on a monthly basis, it shows numberous occasions our users have been prompted to check their outgoing mail for potential data breaches and corrected the mail - an example is sending an attachment to a recipient who's name was similiar to the intended person, Egress tells them when it appears someone added to the mail doesn't match the usual person they'd be sending too. 

Egress is a great addition to our security stance.

  ### 15. Egress fit for our business

The proactive approach it has over its competitors, including its simplicity to deploy and manage.  The dashboard is intuitive easy to navigate and clear to any outstanding alerts that need attention.

**What do you dislike about KnowBe4 Cloud Email Security (Formerly Egress)?**

If I had to choose something, it would be that it doesnt fully integrate with the other suite of products Egress provides, it would be nice for the dashboard to have an all inclusive system.

**What problems is KnowBe4 Cloud Email Security (Formerly Egress) solving and how is that benefiting you?**

The Egress system is very user friendly, excellent customer service support, with quick responses.

  ### 18. Helping our users stay safe

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Dan C. | Network and Security Administrator, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** April 05, 2023

**What do you like best about KnowBe4 Cloud Email Security (Formerly Egress)?**

Egress Intelligent Email Security is a great way to inform the end user about possible phishing or scam emails. It puts banners up in emails that tell the user about external, financial, or sensitive emails and also when there are strong signs of phishing. I really like the fact that the banners show up in the recipient's email, but are gone when they forward or reply to the email.

**What do you dislike about KnowBe4 Cloud Email Security (Formerly Egress)?**

I would like a way to go into the email as an admin and indicate if it's dangerous or be able to modify the findings by the AI to hopefully improve its detection of different types of email.

**What problems is KnowBe4 Cloud Email Security (Formerly Egress) solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Egress Intelligent Email Security gives the end user a meaningful indication of the type and potential dangers of incoming email. The banners are top of the page, concise, and easy to determine the threat level of the email.

  ### 19. Serious yet simple, safe & secure

**Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Stephen H. | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** September 27, 2023

**What do you like best about KnowBe4 Cloud Email Security (Formerly Egress)?**

The piece of mind knowing that my sensitive email communications are secure.

**What do you dislike about KnowBe4 Cloud Email Security (Formerly Egress)?**

That a lot of people out there think that traditional emails are secure and can't fathom the need for an excellent system like Egress.

**What problems is KnowBe4 Cloud Email Security (Formerly Egress) solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Confidence in knowing that email communication of sensitive personal information is encrypted.

  ### 20. Awesome E-mail Security Platform

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Michael W. | Information Security Officer, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** December 27, 2022

**What do you like best about KnowBe4 Cloud Email Security (Formerly Egress)?**

Egress products are easy to implement and are very user friendly. The Defend AI engine has proved to be very effective in preventing phishing attacks and giving us a quick means to remediate malicious e-mails across the enterprise. The Prevent product has proven very effective in preventing accidental data loss events by alerting users to anamolous recipients and uncharacteristic e-mail behaviors. The level of customization is excellent. Service and support have been excellent during implementation and after the sale.

**What do you dislike about KnowBe4 Cloud Email Security (Formerly Egress)?**

Egress does not provide a means to block known malicious e-mail addresses/domains. It only provides the ability to 'red flag those in the "DenyList". The Defend product does not examine and alert on plain text messages.

**What problems is KnowBe4 Cloud Email Security (Formerly Egress) solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Egress has become a very important tool in our fight against phishing. Users readily adopted the system and are utilizing the alerts they see on suspicious messages. It has actually driven greater security awareness among our e-mail system users. The Prevent product has demonstrated its value in preventing data loss events through misspelled or unintentional recipients being added to outgoing messages.

  ### 21. Amazing experience with Egress. Sharing secure documents was never easier than that.

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Constantin D. | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

  ### 22. Reliable Service for Email Security

**Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Daniel L. | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** April 24, 2023

**What do you like best about KnowBe4 Cloud Email Security (Formerly Egress)?**

The engineers at Egress made it simple to setup the system and work with me on their dashboard to understand how everything works and how to best monitor the traffic flow.

**What do you dislike about KnowBe4 Cloud Email Security (Formerly Egress)?**

A renewal price jump of $400+ doesnt make me very happy and there is a 2 month window for service cancellation, this did not make me very happy but I was short on time to review other options and so I was left to renew.

**What problems is KnowBe4 Cloud Email Security (Formerly Egress) solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Filters out a lot of spam and marks many emails for users to help easily identify junk mail.

  ### 23. Flexible and secure but poor Mac integration

**Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Primary/Secondary Education | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** October 26, 2022

**What do you like best about KnowBe4 Cloud Email Security (Formerly Egress)?**

Anyone is able to recieve egress messages and it is usually simple for them to sign up.
Can send medium size files and check to see when they were opened (which is helpful if I am accused of not sending things)

**What do you dislike about KnowBe4 Cloud Email Security (Formerly Egress)?**

Sometimes egress messages go into junk. There are often issues when emailing from my business account to another business with an egress subscription which means that I have to abandon egress entirely. Customer services don't know / don't respond when I raise this issue.
There is very poor intergration for Mac which is a shame as the windows version is really good. I wish that I could intergrate egress into Outlook for mac better.

**What problems is KnowBe4 Cloud Email Security (Formerly Egress) solving and how is that benefiting you?**

I need to send highly confidential files to clients and track the emails. Egress provides a secure way to do this which is GDPR compliant. I am also able to exchange sure messages with my employees.

  ### 24. Easy to use and easy to maintain

**Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Financial Services | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** June 01, 2023

**What do you like best about KnowBe4 Cloud Email Security (Formerly Egress)?**

The product was very easy to implement and has virtually no maintenance costs

**What do you dislike about KnowBe4 Cloud Email Security (Formerly Egress)?**

Some of the suggestions when the product didn't have much data analysed were not accurate

**What problems is KnowBe4 Cloud Email Security (Formerly Egress) solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Reducing the risk of sending emails to the wrong recipients

  ### 25. Simple, easy to use and effective.

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Education Management | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** October 26, 2022

**What do you like best about KnowBe4 Cloud Email Security (Formerly Egress)?**

The Outlook integration - a simple click can encrypt an email. It also decrypts emails within Outlook, avoiding the need to move to another program. The ability to attach large files using Egress (independent of encryption) is also very helpful as, again, it keeps everything within one application.

**What do you dislike about KnowBe4 Cloud Email Security (Formerly Egress)?**

On occasion, the integration with Outlook can fail, and it takes a bit of poking around to get it working again. Usually, a restart of the PC, then Outlook, and an update of Egress solves this.

**What problems is KnowBe4 Cloud Email Security (Formerly Egress) solving and how is that benefiting you?**

We deal with sensitive information on a daily basis, and Egress makes it simple to send files within our organisation. However, a more effective benefit is that we can send encrypted files to users who are not familiar with Egress, but it's intuitive UI helps them to access the emails and files we have sent.

  ### 26. Through my line of work I need to send sercure information.

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Nigel H. | area manager, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** December 01, 2022

**What do you like best about KnowBe4 Cloud Email Security (Formerly Egress)?**

It does what it says on the tin, and the local authorty I work with also use Egress so eans there are no issues sharing important information. it has never let me down

**What do you dislike about KnowBe4 Cloud Email Security (Formerly Egress)?**

I feel the downside is I struggle to carry on an email trail. Sometimes this is needed to remind me of what has been said in the past. Also, not having a person's email address makes it hard to find a contact

**What problems is KnowBe4 Cloud Email Security (Formerly Egress) solving and how is that benefiting you?**

By sending items securely, I am not preaching GDPR, and I know that only the people I want to see the information can see the information. I know the local authority are happy that we use Egress

  ### 27. The level of email screening and alert banners helps me sleep at night!
