“Zerospam catches 'all the things' that shouldn't get into the mail system and lets 'the good stuff' get in. While it offers a user interface, I can't say I ever got a chance to get to know it as the performance is so good I never actually have to tweak anything.“

“Pricing is well within reason, I would consider it a bargain considering the administration time saved. While the product itself is reason enough to write this review, the support team is "the cherry on top". “

### "No more spam"

July 7, 2021

4.0

Pros

Zerospam is critical for me, as my emails somehow got leaks on the internet and since then, too many spam email has landed on my primary inbox. It has create chaos and then i am implementing Zerospam as a quick solution for this problem. Almost no spam email has ever reach my main inbox anymore since then.

Cons

It will be running on the physical server which will involve a technical knowledge and not for a personal use.

### "Great product. Needs little support, but when it is required, the support is excellent."

December 30, 2019

5.0

Great!

Pros

I moved all of my client's email from a server based anti-spam solution to Zerospam, which is cloud based. I no longer have to worry about server crashes, power failures or dropped Internet connections. Set up is easy and ZeroSpam support walked me through the first couple of domains I on-boarded. False positives are rare, while very little actual spam gets through. Pricing for domains using Exchange Online is very competitive. That, coupled with the quality of the product and support, makes ZeroSpam a great value!

Cons

Only a couple of cons, but nothing that out weighs the pros. One, I would like to see the logs update to the current time when clicking Refresh. To update to the most current 24 hour period (even a minute later), you have to leave the logs and come back into them. Two, the use of the names ZeroSpam and Cumulus can be confusing at first. ZeroSpam is the filtering product and Cumulus is the web interface. Though, maybe not possible, if there were any way to only use one name or the other, I think that would help.

Alternatives considered

[MimeCast Email Security](https://www.capterra.com/p/119826/MimeCast-Email-Security/)

Reason for choosing Zerospam

Price, based on what I was looking for. After the fact, I found out that ZeroSpam's support is excellent.

Thanks Walt, it is highly appreciated you review when all you need is a hands-off operation, peace of mind for your business, on a highly secured cloud based service environment and finally no interruptions to service is key for business continuity.

### "Yes but no... We are supposed to be protected but I still don't know until what point"

June 13, 2018

2.0

Pros

Protection is ongoing, if we go to the web we get to know how many attacks we had. I suppose that we save a lot of time but not having to worry about all these issues.

Cons

Pricing is a bit expensive, it is hard to define how much we are protected, there is no active follow up

### "Protect the Enterprise Without Breaking the Bank"

August 6, 2019

5.0

We needed to have access to a Quarantine which we didn't have before. This would result in false-positives not being resolved quickly.

Pros

Simplicity and low false-positives. The 30-day trail was an extremely easy transition and ZeroSpam were great communicators throughout the short process.

Cons

Wishing they had an export feature within the LOG section.

Reason for choosing Zerospam

Cost, simplicity & lower false positives. We have Barracuda Email Security running at a sister organization and the number of false positives makes managing SPAM a full-time job.

### "Best option, hands down, to get rid of 100% of your Spam emails"

June 14, 2018

5.0

We never see spam anymore, brings up efficiency for staff not needing to filter this in the already big quantity of emails they receive daily

Pros

I have been using ZeroSpam in the last 2 companies I have been working and it is for sure the best Anti-Spam solution out there. We do have Microsoft Office 365, which includes an Anti-Spam solution but it does not equal what ZeroSpam is able to do for your company. Try it, trust me you will not remove it once you have it.

Cons

Nothing, the solution is perfect and the support is more than amazing! Best Cloud Anti-Spam out there

### "A great solution with an exceptional customer support"

August 1, 2018

5.0

Almost no spam and a better Internet connection.

Pros

Since it is a cloud solution, the spam emails doesn't impact your Internet connection. Easy to set up and after you can almost forget it. I have almost no admin to do on the solution. They have one of the best customer support in the industry : very profesional, help you to solve the problems, even if the problem is not with their solution.

Cons

A cons is required?!! Serioulsy, with Zerospam, I can't thing of any cons. They do exactly what they need to do.

### "Great product and service"

October 5, 2018

5.0

Compugen switched over to use ZEROSPAM about a year ago after we had problems with Whaling that our former antispam provider could not catch. ZEROSPAM was much better at catching these emails and has made our executives' views on our anti-spam capabilities much more positive. Support has been incredible, more than we could have expected.

Pros

ZEROSPAM does what traditional anti-spam providers do and does it well. There were a few other features to reduce Whaling and targeted spear-phishing attacks on our executives that were very useful. Also there is an email DR capability that we are able to leverage at very low cost.

Cons

No real cons, the software works well and the interface is easy to use.

### "Simple, and no maintenance SaaS"

July 14, 2018

5.0

We use it to prevent RandsomeWare attack and other malware attack coming through email

Pros

We needed an Anti-Spam that was easy to setup, also need it to be in Canada, bilingual and that we can resel easily.

Cons

We also work with SaaS like Cisco IronPort, Witch is much more complex. Sometimes our customer needs a system that allows more complex management facility. and also it is not 100% managed by us. The need Z-S tech to set up functionality can also be a problem.

### "Our experience has been great overall."

June 12, 2018

5.0

Pros

That it is not running on our servers. Email filtering seems best done separate from the email server. Exchange servers are complex enough over time. Our previous solutions integrated with Exchange, and this always caused some issues. With zero spam nothing touches our servers.

Cons

Some of our users don't like needing to log into a website to see the quarantine. I don't personally see this as a problem.

### "Simple to implement, simple to use, no maintenance to do."

June 13, 2018

5.0

already written in the last page

Pros

I have nothing to do for this spam filtering solution to work perfectly every day!! I know it sound impossible but it's a fact. No hardware to maintain, no VM, no software to update. I do not remember the last time i had to release an email from the quarantine, at least 8 month ago. Installation: A DNS Change only. Simply redirect your MX record to the one Zerospam will give you. That's it. A second step to do that is optional: Firewall filtering/limiting tcp/25. My email server is protected from the bad guys who want to connect to my email server because it only accept SMTP connection on the port 25 from the Zerospam server. The path an email do : you, Zerospam, me. Isolation = safety. Bandwith saving. Because the spam did not come in my infrastructure, they do not use my bandwith and ressource. Virus protection, it add another layer of protection. Support, they are fast to answer to email and i can speak to a human easely. Yes, a real human. It's a Canadian business with server around the world. Usage: A web site will give you the possibility to whitelist, blacklist, use greylisting, access to statistics. last week 95,98% of SPAM!!! This number vary every week. Quarantine, an email can be release from there. You can filter by date, user from or to, subject. Stop reading and use the free trial.

Cons

I cannot said to my boss that i did and charge overtime because of Zerospam. It cost something like every good product! Peace of mind have a price.

### "I have used the service for a few years - excellent filter and great value. "

June 24, 2018

5.0

We are more effective rather than weed through a bunch of SPAM.

Pros

It does an excellent job filtering out the spam garbage we get - very few false negatives. I get a daily report of items filtered that I could look at. There are a few false positives.

Cons

Nothing negative to report. It works very well. Some pain (work) to check and release the false positives. (sign in) rather than just click a link on the notification e-mail.

### "Zerospam - An excellent and affordable cloud based Anti-Virus/Anti-Spam solution"

September 14, 2018

5.0

I have been a customer of ZeroSpam for over 5 years and have never had issues with any part of the service. I would easily recommend them to anyone.

Pros

Everything about ZeroSpam has been extremely positive. The interaction with the sales team was very good. They outlined their service and what was required in order to implement this for our on-site exchange environment. Installation was a breeze and the DRAMATIC decrease in spam was immediately obvious. Customer service is second to none providing quick response to questions. This is definitely a set it and forget it service.

Cons

I can't think of a single negative item I could say about ZeroSpam.

### "Best ant-spam solution for a hosted exchange"

August 7, 2018

5.0

Without a proper anti-spam solution all my clients with local or hosted exchange not on big providers such as office 365 had really bad spam problems, which they don't receive anymore with ZEROSPAM implemented.

Pros

I Love that it blocks most if not ALL the unwanted emails that could be harmful to my PC or the entire network it is on.

Cons

I don't have much to complain about but if there would be one thing, it is that sometimes is is a little too good and will be delaying new senders as they are grey listed.

Peace of mind!

Pros

It's rare I give 5 star reviews, but this is a stellar product that works as described and has stellar customer service and support!!

Cons

There is really only one con; IF you can even call it that, because it's really NOT a high cost, but it would be the cost of the product if I was to say anything was bad about it.

### "Simple and Effective Spam Protection"

January 4, 2019

5.0

Pros

The setup of the protection was very simple and the reduction of spam was immediately noticeable by many users in the company. The default filters were perfect and it struck a perfect balance between spam and legitimate emails. I also like the fact they are Canadian based and all the emails are staying within Canada.

Cons

I think they need to improve their visibility as a company. After going though so many other solutions, it was nice to find something that fit the needs. I wished I had known of them sooner.
