- Salvation Army "Mimecast was definitely the right decision for us and I can’t imagine anyone not wanting this service once they see it in action.” Martyn Croft, Head of Corporate Systems

I feel extremely comfortable that, with Mimecast, I’ve put the Boston Celtics’ email delivery and receipt into the hands of experts.” Jay Wessel, Vice President of Technology
Customer Success

In the first week the service was stopping in excess of 1.5 million spam messages a day. We have freed up time and resource that had been locked in battle with spammers." Nathan Hayes, Head of Infrastructure & Technology
“Now, instead of being faced with a deluge of support issues and administration tasks, the email looks after itself." Simon Edwards, IT Director
