"Mail protection !!"

4/5

What do you like best about Security Gateway?

It is an easy platform to implement, configure and use. It works perfectly as a filter for spam, phishing and virus emails. Once the configuration is completed successfully, no further intervention is required. Its cost is really good, accessible for all the benefits it provides. Notifications are explicit so it is easy to know what the problem is. The support is excellent, the few problems that came our way were fixed in a very short time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Security Gateway?

It is not a problem in itself but we would like them to add an integration with Outlook or Gmail that allows to automatically include emails to a white or black list. Apart from this we do not have any other type of problem with Security Gateway, they have met our expectations. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Security Gateway:

Security Gateway has improved our lives, it is versatile, efficient and very easy to use, it is also economical. It does not present any fault and they take care of treating their clients in the best way and offering immediate solutions. The workers of our company are delighted with this platform, it is one of our favorites when it comes to security. There is no doubt that from us, Security Gateway is fully recommended. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Security Gateway solving and how is that benefiting you?

Thanks to this software we have saved ourselves various inconveniences with regard to phishing, spam and virus problems, even the employees of the IT department are grateful since at least ten of our machines were plagued with viruses and they should take care of this. We are sure that even our information is safe because it gives us extra protection. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Safe, Secure, Advanced Security and Easy Setup"

4/5

What do you like best about Security Gateway?

Security Gateway is surprisingly easy to setup and configure but offer some of the latest and best security features compared to some of the most expensive Mail/Security platforms. The daily email reports and more advanced GUI reports available really help you access what is happening on the mail platform. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Security Gateway?

Some of the more advanced features is a bit more difficult to understand and configure but luckily Google and customers support is always close at hand. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Security Gateway:

It is really work while spending some time installing and evaluating Security Gateway for your email services. The Combination of the Mdaemon Mail Server and the Security Gateway is really all you need. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Security Gateway solving and how is that benefiting you?

Since we started using Security Gateway, we have not had any viruses reach any of our end users. The AntiSpam features has also drastically reduced Spam and with additional Administrator options enable you too perfect the spam detecting rules. We also have great reporting on hand to analyse and monitor mail activity. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"good foundation, more tweak able with newer version still a learning curve to use "

3.5/5

What do you like best about Security Gateway?

for the most part it very "Ronco" with set and forget it. easy user configuration easy to stop and start the interface. and the one time i called support the tech was spot on and repaired the software asap. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Security Gateway?

it has a tendency to stop running. i'd say once every few months i need to restart the service. a better local user interface. local users have a hard time migration their interfaces. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

being a large international company, it's nice to put of a defense from the bulk of email/spammers. this make my workload easier, this is a good thing. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Great email filtering product, support staff are knowledgeable"

4/5

What do you like best about Security Gateway?

The flexibility of the filtering rules using the well understood SIEVE language. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Security Gateway?

There are some weird quirks with advanced configurations that aren’t immediately obvious. Sometimes I end up rewriting built-in features in SIEVE to add more control. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Security Gateway:

Start simple, mirror your current configuration and be sure that if your existing mail server has any filtering (in particular SPF, EHLO, IP, etc) you bypass this filtering for mail coming from SecurityGateway. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Security Gateway solving and how is that benefiting you?

Email filtering (spam filtering, virus scanning). Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
