What do you like best about Zix Email Threat Protection?

Zix is a very cost-effective, but robust email security solution. It is very accurate with what's good/bad and quarantines any questionable emails. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Zix Email Threat Protection?

There are MANY email content rules, filters and settings to adjust, so getting the program initially fine-tuned was a little bit of an undertaking. But at the same time having this much control isn't a bad thing at all. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Zix Email Threat Protection solving and how is that benefiting you?

We were wasting a lot of time deleting and combing through spam emails prior to Zix. Zix also has the ability to scan attachments as well as website links within emails, which prevents users from opening or accessing malicious files/sites. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Zix Email Threat Protection?

I love the customizable interface. We are able to fine tune the filter to exactly what we needed. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Zix Email Threat Protection?

I do not like the inability to create a custom bypass code. A code I can give to a sender that is having issues getting through the filter that I can completely bypass the filters all together. It can slow down receiving critical emails when something is blocking it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Zix Email Threat Protection:

do not wait, it is worth the effort and cost. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Zix Email Threat Protection solving and how is that benefiting you?

So far I don't have any complaints or dislikes. Building on and improving the DLP would be a good add-on. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Build more advanced DLP into Zix Protect as opposed to a stand alone product. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

We have seen a good reduction in spam, malware and even phishing. Keeping these out of the users mailboxes is a good start at protecting your network. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

So far has been a good addition to our IT security team as we're always seeking ways to ensure safeguarding our emails, website and web presence, etc. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Zix Email Threat Protection solving and how is that benefiting you?

Given my role, my work email is exposed and "out there" more than just about anyone else's where I work, as I'm the media relations person here; in fact, my email is the only one you can find on our website. As a result, having a secure system that can clean out spam, stave off viruses and keep the flow of my email going is paramount. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Zix Email Threat Protection?

We have used Zix Gateway Email encryption for years (10+) and recently moved to the hosted solution along with their Spam protection product and has been a smooth transition for our organization. Great product(s). Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Zix Email Threat Protection?

No major complaints at the moment with the product. Email encryption is never something that is welcome by our customers (recipients) so from that aspect anything they can do to make the end user experience more friendly, then the better off we all are. Fairly new to the Spam Protection piece with Zix, but so far no complaints. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Zix Email Threat Protection solving and how is that benefiting you?

Compliance with the government requirements of HIPAA and SOCS regulations for the Zix Encryption, and with the Zix Protect we now have a much better ability to guard against the imbedded weblinks that can carry malware etc. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
