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.

Fantastic and amazing email security application.
Likeliness to Recommend
What differentiates Avanan from other similar products?
I like ease of use and once it's set up you don't have to make any changes, just set it and enjoy seeing it block all of the phishing attempts to your users. Avanan is one of the few email security providers to work with in line with Google Workspaces rather than setting up a gateway out front. I like how it uses some solid security engines for its phishing detection.
What is your favorite aspect of this product?
Avanan offers a lot of capability in one product and builds on what Google already offers in its enterprise suite. It is a competitive priced email security solution and it had a very straightforward implementation process. I like how it provides the ability to support multiple email domains and also it features customizable email policies for spam and phishing.
What do you dislike most about this product?
I haven't found much about the application that I dislike so I have nothing to mention in this section.
What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?
Avanan is a robust and powerful email security system every company should consider.
