What is Avanan?
Avanan is a cloud email security platform that pioneered and patented a new approach to prevent sophisticated attacks. The platform uses APIs to block phishing, malware, and data leakage in the line of communications traffic. This means we catch threats missed by Microsoft while adding a transparent layer of security for the entire suite that also protects other collaboration tools like Slack.

Email Security done right & Satisfactory

What differentiates Avanan from other similar products?
Cost, ease of use and security that was inline instead of replacement
What is your favorite aspect of this product?
Game changing setup being behind Office 365 without having to change MX records or disable, bypass using the security tools with Office 365. Think of it as adding a bigger turbo to your car, bolt on and go! Detonating attachments in cloud, amazing phishing engine, and extremely easy to setup and use. Less than 30 mins to setup.
What do you dislike most about this product?
Overall there is nothing which comes to mind as like least, as the solution is much easier to operate and more accurate than my prior solution.
What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?
The Avanan does make it easy to find and restore emails that have been quarantined on their end. The mail explorer will sometimes fail to find a specific email we are looking for and we've worked with their support team to resolve these issues when they happen. Since messages are routed over to Avanan and back this does introduce a slight delay in email delivery, typically less than 30 seconds.
Pros
- Caring
- Client Friendly Policies
- Helps Innovate
- Continually Improving Product
