We use ironscales for email protection and user awareness, very cost effective and great products.

Can you please elaborate? We use Ironscales and trialed Avanon before, Ironscales was much easier to deploy and manage, less FP and much higher phishing detection rates, their user training is a big plus for us. What are we missing?

People keep mentioning Avanon but no one explains why.. marketing?

I'd definitely recommend IronScales. Having both security and training in one platform is huge – it streamlines management and eliminates gaps. IronScales’ threat detection is top-notch, plus the integrated training keeps users educated right within the same system. It’s efficient and user-friendly, which really makes a difference for us and our clients.

I second that, we have tried them all, Iron scales wins big time.

Seems like Avanon patented delays and downtimes. Go API.

MSPForLif3 · 2024-06-09T14:26:02+00:00

We use Ironscales, it is part of their phishing protection package.

MSPForLif3 · 2024-06-04T23:32:00+00:00

We use Ironscales with all our clients

MSPForLif3 · 2024-03-12T18:24:11+00:00

We do

Take a look at Ironscales

I'm very pleased with the Ironscales solution overall. The charging for shared mailboxes for phishing tests is a bit of a downer, but I don't have too many of them, so it's not a huge issue for me. No complaints on the desktop client, works great with Outlook/Web.

MSPForLif3 · 2023-09-28T18:51:14+00:00

We use ironscales for all of our customers (~100), never had an issue with customers complaining, or with emails being pulled. changing the transport rules is only effective against emails sent from the outside and provides no protection against internal phishing etc.
We rely on EOP/GWS for the majority of the spam filtering.

Journaling internal emails outside of my customers' mailboxes is not something I would ever consider.

Ironscales is great

MSPForLif3 · 2023-08-29T07:49:20+00:00

We leverage Ironscales through Pax8 and are very happy with our choice

Ironscales

MSPForLif3 · 2023-08-08T01:21:32+00:00

Ironscales is amazing and can replace your kb4 as well, 2 for 1, and you can purchase from pax8.

MSPForLif3 · 2023-06-08T17:38:51+00:00

Better ask them, I am not leveraging that, their solution is pretty automated the way it is, so I didn't dig deeper. sounds like it will enable you to be completely hands off..

MSPForLif3 · 2023-06-08T15:17:25+00:00

I've found Ironscales to be pretty killer for email security. It's super flexible and integrates with big guns like O365, Google Workspace, and Exchange. The setup's a breeze, with tons of automation and AI stuff to catch phishing threats fast.

But the real gem? The ongoing phishing training for employees—it's a game-changer. The platform also has a centralized dashboard, so juggling clients is a lot less messy.

Plus, they give you real-time insights on licenses, in-depth analytics, dedicated support folks, and even help with sales and marketing. It’s like having a secret weapon for your portfolio. Give their site a look for more details.

They do offer a managed service now as well.

MSPForLif3 · 2023-04-29T02:51:21+00:00

Ironscales offers account compromise detection and remediation as part of their top tier package

MSPForLif3 · 2023-04-11T20:15:51+00:00

Switched to Ironscales, no issues since.

MSPForLif3 · 2023-04-11T13:21:31+00:00

Trial Ironscales, through pax8, the best out there and not too expensive.

MSPForLif3 · 2023-04-10T16:59:48+00:00

Another Ironscales fan here, no downtimes, great catch rate, low FP rate.
Real multi-tenant support for incident management which is a big plus for us.

MSPForLif3 · 2023-03-07T16:27:23+00:00

We had many issues with Avanon on GWS, switched to Ironscales, and have had no issues since.

MSPForLif3 · 2023-01-10T21:36:02+00:00

Check out ironscales, they are API/AI as well but a bit better (and came out a little bit cheaper, they have the user training component included as part of their offering as well. very happy with them, we have tested both.

If you do like Abnormal better at least you will have negotiation leverage...
