Cisco Mail Security - how is it?

[belykoral]

Hi there,

We are sizing up O365 E5 v Mimecast v Cisco. We already own the E5 licenses so this is in the lead cost-wise. I've used Mimecast extensively and liked it, but found it to be a bit soft on occasion. I am in the dark about Cisco's offering.

Is there anyone out there currently using Cisco's mail security stuff, if so, how is it going for you & why did you choose it?

Hello,

We are in the process of the same comparison: Cisco vs O365 E5. We have been using our current Cisco ESA environment without to much issue the last 8 years. The main pro is that it is very customizable compared to Office365/Exchange. This gave us the chance to move legacy based environments to our new environment. Now we are looking at both solutions. But basically it is a matter of price who will be the winner: E5 has the advantage.

What is your consideration for looking at Cisco as a possible solution.
