Email Message Security Gartner


We've recently been working closely with Paul Barker and Amanda Holt at Exclusive Networks, and they introduced me to Proofpoint. This is a Google competitor and well regarded by Gartner. Its not as cheap as Postini, and doesn't support Lotus Domino Archiving, but its still very good. Its interesting to see Mimecast don't even appear on the quadrant. There's quite a few vendors in this space now and we represent a few of them, Postini, Symantec, Proofpoint, Cisco, Clearswift, Secure Computing, Sophos, Websense and Marshal. Its interesting how most of them now have a 'cloud' based solution of some kind. The software and appliance solutions really aren't the first choice anymore that they were 5-7 years ago.
