## Reviews

### "Avanan is the best email security app" — 5.0/5

> **Gilad** | *December 11, 2020* | Computer Software | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The highest technology based on AI with the capability to manage and control in one single dashboard which is so user-friendly makes it super powerful\!&#10;Avanan doesn't require an agent or any installation
> 
> **Cons**: Very few cases of false-positive, not something that others not having but with the great responsive answer from their support it's like invisible.
> 
> As a company that loves  SaaS apps, we found Avanan as the best solution for us by protecting us from security incidents, spammers, and phishing attacks.&#10;just about few days it prevents and quarantines a phishing attempt in our organization.

### "Simple to setup and Easy to use" — 5.0/5

> **Bill** | *December 26, 2019* | Nonprofit Organization Management | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The trial setup was simple and took only minutes to integrate into our environment. Since implementing in production, which was just as quick and painless, we've seen a dramatic decrease in the amount of malicious mail making it to end users mailbox. Warnings and notifications sent to end users are easy to understand. This has driven user trust and adoption.  On the rare occasions when false positives occur, clear and simple notices aid users in mitigating them. One of the simplest implementation processes in years with huge positive impact for our staff.
> 
> **Cons**: Two are I;d like to see imroved:&#10;1-  threats are reported but no action can be taken. I'd like to see more actionable tools/features added for all threats. &#10;2- when items are acted on or mitigated, the history of who did what and when is not always readily available. I'd like to see simpler and more complete audit logging, visibility and control.
> 
> Increased inbox security  and improved user awareness with minimal impact to the admin staff. A win for Staff and for IT\!

### "Good Peace of Mind" — 5.0/5

> **Seth** | *November 12, 2020* | Farming | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Avanan allows us to quickly and easily look through quarantined items and process them. The interface is easy to understand and navigate.
> 
> **Cons**: Can't think of anything specific that we ran into. It was sometimes frustrating to have to whitelist things in Avanan and in O365 but that probably had more to do with our setup of O365 than the Avanan product.
> 
> Overall Avanan did it's job well. In the end we decided to switch to another platform that did more than just email security so provided more flexibility.

### "World class product" — 5.0/5

> **Andrew** | *November 10, 2020* | Financial Services Software | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Avanan is a high quality product that delivers tremendous value for an organizations anti-phishing and email security endeavors. Easy to use and great support team as well.
> 
> **Cons**: No major issues. I look forward to Avanan adopting a mobile UI and app.
> 
> All around success and exceptional experience.

### "The best solution against malicious email and DLP" — 5.0/5

> **Andy** | *November 18, 2020* | Nonprofit Organization Management | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Avanan provides great support by providing quick support and great resolutions.  It's incredibly effective at blocking malicious emails and DLP.  It's easy to whitelist domains that you don't want to be affected.  It's also easy for end-users to use.  When they receive a quarantine notice, it's quick and easy to get the email released to them if it's legitimate.  I think they have great product integrations behind them as well.
> 
> **Cons**: There's not much.  There are a few areas where the interface could be more friendly.  It sometimes takes a little long for email to get through to users when it's being evaluated, but it's worth it and you learn to expect it.
> 
> It's been great from day one.  The sales team was great, the implementation was painless, and the ongoing support is great.  The administration is easy and everyone in the company seems to like it.  We love that they keep adding new features that have helped us since we went with Avanan as well.
