Avanan Cloud Email Security Reviews & Product Details

What I like most about Avanan is that it works where we work. It doesn’t force us to change how we do email—it just integrates directly into Microsoft 365 or Google Workspace and starts protecting immediately. That kind of seamless setup is rare in security tools.

It’s also incredibly good at catching real threats without getting in the way. Phishing emails, spoofed senders, suspicious links—it catches them before our users even know they existed. And if something does slip through, it can remove it from inboxes automatically, which is a huge relief for IT.

Another big plus is the visibility it gives us. The dashboard is clean and informative, and the reports actually make sense. We can see what’s happening, what was blocked, and why—without digging through a maze of menus. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Some settings and policy controls feel buried or not clearly explained. You sometimes have to click around a bit to find what you’re looking for, especially if you’re new to the platform. Small frustration is that advanced policy configuration and DLP rules can feel a bit technical. The flexibility is there, which is great, but the learning curve for setting up more complex rules is steeper than expected. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What I really like about Avanan is how seamlessly it works with our existing email setup—whether you're using Microsoft 365 or Google Workspace, it just plugs in via API. No complex setup or rerouting email traffic. It’s quick to deploy and doesn’t disrupt anything. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The biggest challenge for me has been the alert noise. The platform is very good at detecting threats, but sometimes it flags too much—especially during the early stages of deployment. It can take a while to fine-tune the policies so you're not flooded with alerts that turn out to be false positives. It’s not a deal-breaker, but it does require some upfront effort. We also noticed that policy customization—especially for more advanced DLP or encryption scenarios—can get a bit tricky. The flexibility is there, but it’s not always as straightforward as it could be, and the documentation doesn’t always explain things in simple terms. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I am worried about one thing in this product and also if they work with emails providers to send notification if they blocked emails before reaching to checkpoint.

checkpoint has capable to send notifications to end-user to request for release the emails but if it not reached checkpoint and blocked by emails domain provider itself those user not getting notified .
