MessageLabs Replacement

    Understand why organizations are rapidly switching from MessageLabs.
    Overview

    Is it time to find a MessageLabs replacement?

    Industry experts have suggested that the pending acquisition of Symantec by Broadcom will serve as a warning to CISOs since Broadcom have decided to focus R&D and Support on certain products only. As a result, some customers may begin to investigate a MessageLabs replacement. Here are some of the headline reactions:

    At a time when email-borne threats are among the biggest risks to enterprise security, organizations need the strongest possible email security defenses. Symantec customers are justifiably concerned that MessageLabs may no longer provide the protection they needed. Customers feared that MessageLabs would not get the resources required to keep this cybersecurity software product at the top of its game in defending against newly emerging threats.

    As they search for a MessageLabs replacement, Symantec customers will find that Mimecast, an email security market leader, is an excellent alternative and will be reassured that over 3,800 Symantec customers have already migrated to Mimecast’s email security services.

    Mimecast provides a cloud-based service that serves as an ideal MessageLabs replacement and an all-in-one solution for email security, archiving, continuity and compliance. Simple to deploy and easy to use, Mimecast dramatically reduces the cost and complexity of managing business email while significantly improving cyber resiliency.

    As a MessageLabs replacement, Mimecast provides greater resilience for organizations before, during and after an email-borne threat. Mimecast enables organizations to:

    • Defend against the most dangerous threats like ransomware and phishing with best-of-breed email security solutions.
    • Ensure continuous access to email during an attack or technical failure with continuity solutions that provide access to email even when primary email servers are down.
    • Recover quickly after an attack with archiving, backup and recovery solutions that enable quick recovery of data that is corrupted or lost because of ransomware, user error or technical failure.

    For customers switching from MessageLabs, Mimecast provides transition services that make the process quick and easy. Our specialists have had extensive experience moving organizations from the MessageLabs platform to Mimecast’s SaaS-based services both before and since the announcement of Symantec’s sale.

    With Mimecast as a MessageLabs replacement, customers can also count on Mimecast’s legendary customer service to help answer questions and resolve issues quickly. Since email security was excluded in the acquisition announcement from the list of “highest ROI” investments for both R&D and support, MessageLabs customers may experience increased hold times and more protracted issue resolution after the sale of Symantec’s enterprise business. Meanwhile, Mimecast is committed to continuing to lead the industry in customer satisfaction rates and to deliver customer service through a local presence in many regional markets.
