What do you like best about Paubox?

I searched for a long time for a low cost, seamless and simple solution for our email encryption. Every time another office sent us an encrypted email we had to make a log in for a portal and it drove us all nuts. I didn't want to contribute to other offices having the same feelings when they received messages from our office. I looked at other products that required you to check buttons or monitor different settings also, but Paubox doesn't require any of this! You don't have to do anything out of the ordinary-It is so easy. If I didn't see the "encryption verified by paubox" at the bottom of every email, I wouldn't even recognize any barrier at all to retrieving and reading messages.

What do you like best about Paubox?

I like that I don't have to change anything I have been doing and now all my emails are HIPAA compliant. Such a relief. Plus no pain in the butt wierd log ins to make the messages encrypted. I have been looking for a seamless solution for 2 years to this problem and am relieved to have found Paubox. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Paubox?

It's a little pricey, but the big discount on the first year made me willing to try it and I'll probably continue to use it even after I have to pay full price next year. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Paubox solving and how is that benefiting you?

I have to correspond with other medical and treatment providers constantly and being able to send them a message via email and not have to play phone tag because my email is not encryped is such a time saver. Also, I don't want to have a wierd confusing email address or make people use log in codes to access my encrypted emails. I just want my emails to be safe and this makes it a no brainer.

What do you like best about Paubox?

My favorite part about Paubox is how seamless it integrates with email. I don't have to think about marking an email as encrrypted, and clients don't need to take extra steps to view emails and/or attachments. I've also been very impressed with Paubox's customer service. I've always gotten fast responses, answers to my questions, and appreciated that they help you set things up. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Paubox?

Honestly, I don't know if there is anything that I dislike about Paubox. Some people may think that it costs too much, particulalry because it's an add-on service to an already paid email account, but the convience and service make it worth it. Plus, it's easy to reduce your renewal amount if you get referrals and add the Paubox badge to your website. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Paubox solving and how is that benefiting you?

Paubox is providing seamless email encryption for my therapy practice. In addition to meeting HIPAA requirements, Paubox allows me to easily send emails and attachments to clients without questioning if I've encrypted the email or not. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Paubox is unbelievably simple to "use." It just works. And that's what we wanted. Kenzie was tremendously helpful in identifying our pain points and explaining how Paubox would resolve them. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Paubox?

The setup was a bit hairy because our domain was through Google Workspace and the setup tech wasn't able to figure that out on his own. Other than that, there is really no downside to the service itself. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Paubox solving and how is that benefiting you?

We need HIPAA complaint encryption, and they have it. We are able to communicate freely without using patient IDs or initials, which increases efficiency significantly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Paubox?

I love that Paubox integrates with my gmail seamlessly and does not require my clients to sign in to access their secure email. It was so easy to set up and customer support was easy to work with. I can rest easy knowing that any time I send or receive an email, Paubox takes care of encrypting the information so I am protected and my clients' information is secure. When I ran into one small issue, it was only a short wait to get on a call with a real person who walked me through how to fix the issue step by step. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Paubox?

I honestly have not had any issues with Paubox. I can recommend them 100% after over a year of use. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Paubox?

As a solo medical practice, I don't have an in-house IT Department and really appreciated how easy it was to integrate Paubox into our operations to provide HIPAA-compliant email. Knowing that Paubox has HITRUST CSF certification and maintains it through their commitment to regulatory compliance allows me to trust them as a vital part of risk management. Given the ever-increasing complexity of cybersecurity regulations, I am so happy with how easy it is for my staff to use Paubox everyday to communicate with our patients who are not themselves tech-savvy. I also like their weekly updates emailed to me about industry concerns, security trends, and related topics. I enthusiastically recommend Paubox to businesses who want top-quality and easy-to-use email encryption. Lastly, the special touch that shows this company cares about their clients (and what I love about Paubox) is the "I heart (your name)" on the Administrator dashboard -- it makes me smile every time I log in!

(Original )Information
What do you like best about Paubox?

I like that Paubox is secure, and I don't have to send email that requires a security code to open it. I receive secure emails from other clinicians who send passwords with their emails. Having the simplicity of sending emails without passwords and having clients not have to go through the hassle of dealing with a password to open my email is helpful and refreshing. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Paubox?

HIPAA compliance security is for outbound mail for the initial service I purchased. Inbound is not included in the base contract. I am able to use the secure link for uploading documents, and provide it to clients, so this helps with receiving information back from clients. While I'm able to upgrade my account, I wish it wasn't another upgrade to my account to include inbound email rather than just outbound. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Paubox solving and how is that benefiting you?

HIPAA compliant emails for protected health information. This is very helpful for secure communication with clients as well as their health care professionals for coordination of care.

I no longer require a fax machine because I can email information and documents encrypted and securely.

Paubox now offers the option for creating electronic forms. My clients can fill out forms online securely and send them securely to me without having to print, fill out, and send back. Paubox offers this as a free service with their basic service.

Paubox offers helpful information and suggestions for keeping information safe and secure. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
