Advanced Threat Protection Looking for Reviews
- Mar 28, 2018
Thanks David. I also think that with the spoof intelligence feature and low false positive quarantine feature I read in another posts, ATP has improved from beginning of last year.
There is another solution Mimecast that i am evaluating and i find it superior but the cost is also higher (3.5x) compared with Microsoft ATP. I also wondering if having another vendor solution in the middle would make us be hybrid and not officially supported by Microsoft if we ever face an issue with e-mails.
We have the ability to use it for a couple of days. You can set it up first for a group of users. So you can see what is is doing. After that you can deploy it for al your users.
The results that I see that it is activly scanning all mails and links in the mails. I am waiting for scam mail to see it will protect me.

Maurits,
Thank you! Yes, we did notice it could be set up for a trial period of 30 days. We are waiting on pricing as I believe it is free for students and then trying to figure out if FTE is based on Microsoft formula used for campus agreement or if it is another count. One way it will possibly be affordable for us and the other way it will likely not be affordable.
So you are still in evaluation period at this time? Are you comparing it to any other products? I know we are also comparing with Proof Point. We might have to go ahead and start the evaluation on ATP so we can see how it works. We watched a demo on Proof Point. Then with Barracuda we use to have their product years ago and it seemed fairly solid.
