Question on: Check Point Email Security
[Has anyone found a way to completely disable Microsoft Exchange Online Protection so that all email filtering is performed by Avanan alone?](/discussions/has-anyone-found-a-way-to-completely-disable-microsoft-exchange-online-protection-so-that-all-email-filtering-is-performed-by-avanan-alone)

After implementing Avanan, we still see messages delivered to Junk Email by Microsoft EOP. We want to disable or bypass EOP and rely on the Avanan filters alone.

I think you asked this in a different comment/question; but I'll re-iterate, this is typically not a great idea but you could use mail-flow rules.

Question on: Check Point Email Security
[What has been the difference against other Cloud Email Security providers that helped choose Avanan as the best option?](/discussions/43316-what-has-been-the-difference-against-other-cloud-email-security-providers-that-helped-choose-avanan-as-the-best-option)

List or detail the functional characteristics helped in the decision making of this solution.

Avanan scores far above any other provider at preventing emails from being delivered to mailboxes which were delivered by other products. I have specific examples of this for Microsoft Defender for Office 365 (formerly ATP) and IRONSCALES.
