We experienced benefits immediately but the report generation is lagging
iboss excels on the networking side but lags slightly behind competitors like Zscaler and Netskope in terms of security feature parity. I'd like to see them accelerate development on the security side, particularly around data loss prevention. Using iboss for DLP instead of traditional endpoint solutions is preferable, but its current feature set requires some clunky workarounds. I'd also like to see better integration of DLP into the platform. Additionally, while it's improving, reporting can be slow at times. This is problematic when generating reports for executives who expect them immediately. I'd like to see further improvements in reporting speed and efficiency.

Provides protection against routine threats like spam, viruses and malware
It’s a straightforward process to set up Mimecast, especially for individuals experienced in email gateway security. The setup is quite effortless. In fact, it's a real-time implementation that can be accomplished within a short span, even as little as thirty to forty minutes. The ease of setup depends on how the user intends to utilize the product. If there is need to make direct DNS changes, there might be a 24-hour implementation time. However, if coordination is established with management or IT personnel, the setup can be performed during non-business hours, such as midnight. Complexity is minimal. While larger organizations often encounter time-consuming procedures, smaller ones can swiftly implement the necessary changes.

Enables us to effortlessly filter out the content that we do not want, including specific websites or domains
WebTitan enables us to effortlessly filter out the content that we do not want, including specific websites or domains. Covering offsite workers used to be less important, but employees are increasingly working from home, so it's helpful that WebTitan covers all our employees regardless of where they are. Our licensing model covers all our users. We've seen some reduction in attacks since implementing WebTitan, and I think this will significantly improve once we automate our blocklist. It accounts for about a quarter of our larger security arsenal, but we have other tools to protect against malware, phishing, viruses, etc. It has also saved some money on web filtering. It's a much more economical solution compared to Cisco Umbrella. And while it doesn't improve the end-user experience per se, it increases our IT team's effectiveness at preventing users from accessing harmful content. At the end of the day, WebTitan is there to restrict users from navigating to malicious websites. Obviously, users would prefer to go where they want, but WebTitan helps us protect them from malicious websites and phishing links. So in that sense, it's been great.
