AI Generated Summary
AI-generated. Powered by real user reviews.
- Users report that Symantec Encryption's "Email Encryption" feature is robust, scoring 9.7, but reviewers mention that its overall user experience is hindered by a lower ease of use rating of 7.8 compared to Paubox's impressive 9.8.
- Reviewers mention that Paubox excels in "Recovery" and "File Management," both scoring a perfect 10.0, while Symantec Encryption struggles with a score of 6.7 in these areas, indicating a significant gap in usability for everyday users.
- G2 users highlight that Symantec Encryption's "Anti-Phishing" and "Advanced Threat Intelligence/Protection" features are strong, with scores of 9.3 and 9.7 respectively, but users on G2 express concerns about the overall quality of support, which is rated at 8.1, compared to Paubox's stellar 9.9.
- Users say that Paubox's "Compliance" features, including "Authentication" and "Policy Enforcement," both rated at 10.0, provide a level of assurance that Symantec Encryption's lower scores (8.6 and 8.1) cannot match, making Paubox a more reliable choice for compliance needs.
- Reviewers mention that Symantec Encryption's "Encryption Algorithms" score of 9.6 is commendable, but users report that Paubox's overall encryption capabilities, particularly in "Messaging Encryption" which scored a perfect 10.0, make it a superior option for secure communications.
- Users on G2 highlight that while Symantec Encryption offers solid "Transport Encryption" at 9.7, Paubox's user-friendly interface and seamless "Email Client Integration" (both rated at 9.9) significantly enhance the user experience, making it easier for teams to adopt and utilize effectively.
