### "Out of the box"

5.0

Pros

support is exceptional. Does what it needs to do.

Cons

we still see some spam getting thru, but I think that will always be the case.

Thankfully we have the means and the ways along with the team to do our utmost . Often tweaking rules and policies can do the trick and bring further improvement so please get in touch to chat with us and see if we can do more for you.

### "So good, I wouldn't look anywhere else now"

May 20, 2024

5.0

Pros

So easy to use, so easy to get support. Its a set it and forget it kind of thing. It doesn't intrude or make more work. It just works really well.

Cons

The filter for marketing emails was a bit of a nuisance because it worked really well but that wasn't topsecs fault. The issue was the amount of newsletters that users had signed up for and having to differentiate between the ones they wanted and the ones they didnt

### "Pros and Cons"

April 11, 2019

5.0

Pros

It is easy to use, the web portal access is very clean and navigation is clean

Cons

When you try to copy a web link and the other information make it hard to send the links to someone else. I wish i could login from anywhere instead of just one ip address.

April 12, 2019

Antony , you are a gent , thank you for taking the time to leave a review. Happy to tell you that our new platform will not have the IP Location restriction . We do see the restriction as an added security measure but also recognize the way people now work so this is a happy medium , keeping everyone happy but still being ultra conscious of client safety and security.

May 20, 2024

5.0

Overall the Topsec Cloud experience is professional across its broad range of services. Staff are friendly, efficient and well trained.

Pros

From a managed service point of view its critical to have a service provider that not only works but has a good support team behind it. The range of services are always expanding and changing to meet the challenges of working online.

Cons

I cannot fault the service. It works well.

### "User Review "

March 27, 2019

4.0

Overall it is a very good product which does give a level of peace of mind to know a lot of potentially dangerous emails are blocked before getting to our domain. From previous discussions with the team at Topsec, the cons mentioned above will be addressed in the new portal to be released soon. We look forward to having that new portal.

Pros

SPAM checking and filtering done by TOPSEC which weeds out a lot spam mail before it gets to our Exchange. The ability to quarantine \\ hold up incoming emails based on attachment size and type. The ability to maintain and modify our own blacklist of email addresses Trustwave for its functionality to check new URL's accessed for their authenticity \\ safety.

Cons

The inconsistent session duration – sometimes can stay logged in all day, other times can get prompted to login again after a very short period. The inability to download \\ zip multiple attachments in emails which are held up (e.g. Having to manually download 20 attachments as opposed to a single .zip of them). Trustwave at times can be slow to load / process URL’s. When going into the message viewer sometimes we get inconsistent results with “long running scripts” message appearing which results in having to restart whichever browser we are using (happens in IE11 and Chrome). This tends to happen most when quarantined emails contain larger attachments (15-20 MB+) or a large number of attachments.

### "Excellent Product"

April 18, 2019

5.0

Topsec Email Security has been our spam filtering system of choice for the last 3 - 4 years and we continue to recommend it.

Pros

We have been using this product for a number of years now and recommend it to all our clients for the email filtering. It is very easy to setup - Topsec configure and manage the rules as required. Our clients can manage their own quarantine and whitelists or we can manage these for them as needed. URL filtering for links in emails adds an extra level of protection. The support from Topsec is excellent.

Cons

Very little. Can only access the portal from specified ip addresses which can be a bit restrictive when we are out of the office.

Response from Topsec Cloud Solutions

April 24, 2019

Thanks Des for all the positive feedback, we really appreciate our longstanding partners taking time out of their schedules to leave reviews for other potential clients. With regards to IP Address restriction we see this as an additional security feature but we have listened to you and our other partners , we recognize the difficulty this can cause you guys so as part of the new platform in July the restriction on IP Address can be lifted should you wish. Hope this helps, see you soon. Ger

### "Topsec Email Security"

March 20, 2019

5.0

The product does what it needs to do which is block most of the rubbish that is sent through email.

Pros

The product does its job seamlessly and transparently. Like all such products there are always the occasional false positive but these are easily retrieved and having addresses or sender domains whitelisted is straight forward. The support service is easy to contact and deal with and make any required changes (such as IP addresses) to the service so there is no risk of the user messing up the setup.

Cons

Although the service has a comprehensive control panel some settings which you might expect to be able to control yourself, such as whitelisting of an address is not fully available.

### "Achieving peace of mind with top email security that you need"

March 28, 2019

5.0

Top email security for our business Excellent customer service & Support Topsec has always taken customer opinions & needs into account and has taken serious steps to improve customer experience.

Pros

Email Security Best Practices Email Security Options Continual threat updates for email security/ rules to keep company's data safe Excellent Customer Service & Customer Support Daily & Monthly Reports - Email Security Awareness and Usage Report

Cons

Sometime (but not very often) a legitimate email can be stopped by Topsec. But then it is safer to stop these, rather than running the risk. These emails can then safely & easily be released by using the Topsec user-friendly Dashboard.

### "Email Security"

February 21, 2019

5.0

From the outset the move from our old provider to Topsec was made very easy . Dedicated account manager and tech support buddy to bring you through the transition. Once set up and functional we weren't just left alone to operate ourselves. We have regular interactions with support and receive nice market trends updates from their sales & marketing team . All in all a very accessible company who I'd happily recommend

Pros

Ease of use , client portal , value for money , little extra functions provide in the standard service and the excellent support.

Cons

Interface could do with an overhaul but not a deal breaker as functions are there

February 22, 2019

5.0

Topsec always respond to requests quickly - within minutes. Issues are handled rapidly, and they have a keen eye on issues beyond their control. Always attentive and supportive.

Pros

Having regular reports sent to us when items have been blocked or quarantined is particularly useful, in case we are expecting something to arrive. It's no nonsense, concise, and easy to understand.

Cons

At present, I feel that there are no cons.

March 20, 2019

5.0

Pros

The strength of Topsec to scan all emails and grab ones that are unwanted and bogus mails. The notification of quarantined mails is extremely useful and Topsec's weekly reports are invaluable. Overall is great to know that Topsec has our back with scanning of emails for us and for our clients, and Topsec's support has proven its worth many times over.

Cons

N/a, overall Topsec email security is a great product, can't fault it

March 19, 2016

5.0

We have used this service for around 3+ years, we felt it was one of the best investments we had made in recent projects, it is very reliable software, very stable and fulfills all the requirements. It keeps our email relevant and safe. Email has become a very critical part of our business in recent times. This service saves us time in dealing with spam email and gives us the sense of security surrounding our email environment. As an ICT Manager this gives me great comfort that my email is in very safe hands. I must mention the support service they provide is excellent. The cost of such software is very reasonable considering what you get for your investment.

Blockmail has completely prevented malicious e-mail from reaching our customers mail systems whilst keeping false-positives to an absolute minimum. Being able to access all of our customer information in a single portal makes our lives much easier. In addition their tech support team is very quick to respond to any requests that we make. In our 3 years of using this service there hasn't been a single outage either. We highly recommend this product!

### "TopNotch Sec"

August 27, 2025

5.0

Brilliant experience overall. We’re very happy to have the added support and the confidence that Topsec’s platform is reliably doing its job. We’ve run several phishing campaigns now, and they’ve provided clear insights into which companies may benefit from additional training or enhanced filtering measures. It’s been an invaluable tool for identifying gaps and strengthening our clients’ security posture.

Pros

The Topsec support team is responsive, knowledgeable, and proactive. On top of that, they’re genuinely down-to-earth people who are always a pleasure to deal with, whether over the phone or by email. Their services are excellent and straightforward to implement. The team communicates clearly and is consistently helpful throughout the process, making deployment smooth and stress-free.

Cons

It would be helpful to have a pricing breakdown for Topsec’s services. I work with a mix of clients—standard businesses, education, and non-profits—and pricing often varies. If some time passes between setups, I usually need to check again to confirm current rates. That said, the team’s email responses are always quick and helpful, so it’s never a hassle.

One of the best products we have in our stack, but the standout point with Topsec is their support, emails answered/resolved in a few minutes.
