What differentiates Forcepoint Email DLP from other similar products?

We haven't found any other tool as efficient in delivering an email security gateway as Forcepoint is. With its multiple features, we can customize, block emails, and can analyze different Uniform Resource Locators (URL). Its spam filtering is unmatchable and the fingerprint option is helpful too. so in short it has a lot of features in it that make it stand out and unique from other tools. Malware, spam, and other viruses can no longer get away to our company.

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

The way it protects email gateway and prevents the entry of malware, viruses, and other malicious entity. Its spam filtering is another favorite aspect along with the email blocking feature and URL analysis as well.

What do you dislike most about this product?

Cost Integration ( as there should be more integrations allowed ) plus it's hard to integrate it with another platform. It is a bit complex software with a little perplexing interface.

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

I think if someone wants to maintain a peaceful and secure environment in the company then it is a must-have tool and after getting this implement it in all the critical departments of the organization to protect email gateways.

Pros
