Great product! Make the wise decision and purchase Zix Email Threat Protection for all your needs
- Support is very responsive and timely. I have used both the online portal, email submission as well as telephone. All of my interactions with them have been superior!
- When we have had an issue and it was a false positive, they are quick to react and allow it.
- In the beginning they had a difficult phone structure to manage, however that has changed and it is much simpler.
- When submitting claims online they could have an optional field for an Internal service ticket number.

- Email release by users.
- Message retraction when malicious content slips through.

- Downloading copies for review.
- Speed (site is a little slow at times).
Zix: easy name to remember, easier product to use
- Easy to use, Zix works behind the scenes.
- The secure portal is great for sending sensitive data securely.
- The secure portal feature set is robust, allowing to delete messages, recall, etc.
- Great customer service.
- The secure portal is great but some end users do not like having to log in to see messages.
- The admin interface is kind of dated looking. Needs some updating.
After reviewing several other vendors/solutions. Zix is an incredible cloud-hosted solution, so no need to have a server onsite. Customer service has been great on setting up the initial ruleset, and the few times we needed some additional help on pulling reports.
Reporting is also great on Zix. You can track messages, see if a message was read (if using the secure portal), expire the message, etc.
Zix is a great secure and easy to use system.
- The customer service is amazing.
- It is simple to use.
- It can be used across different email platforms.
- I do not use the actual main web page of Zix, so that would be nice if I could learn it.
- Having access to change our own secure word instead of needing to reach out to Zix to do it.
- Honestly, we do not have many issues.
Easy easy easy compliance
- Automatic encryption by keyword.
- Unobtrusive technology.

Zix - an employee benefit broker's best friend for secure email
- Sending info between Zix members is automatically secure, amazing!
- Encrypting emails is also super easy and more importantly, easy on the other end for our clients.
- It's super smart two, catching things I make have not thought to encrypt.
- It's just plain easy.
- I honestly can't say I'd change anything. Really love Zix!
Configure it, secure it, and forget it.
- Automatic review of messages before being sent
- Enabling staff to encrypt messages regardless of information
- Always reviewing and updating the lexicons based on current laws, policies, and practices
- The only issue: I wish Zix currently had an auto-update feature of the lexicons, rather than having to perform the updates manually.
Zix! A must-have system
- Encryption.
- Detection.
- Security.
- Expand email functions.
- More integration with Google.
- More options for support.
Zix the fear of HIPAA compliant Email - Ultimate Peace of Mind and Security with Zixcorp Email Protection.
- Makes it easy for those receiving emails to create an account and retrieve the email.
- Peace of mind knowing emails are secure, and can be tracked.
- Monitoring inbound email threats is easy.
- Support has been very quick resolving or explaining support tickets I've created.
- The portal is tricky to navigate if you're not familiar with it.
- The portal has shown extensive lag and inability to click certain buttons.
- I am an early Administrator, but entrusting other users to check and clear their "Quarantine" box of blocked email seems daunting. - Fear of teaching Zix to others as I still have a lot to learn myself.
The no-brainer choice for encryption and filtering
- Antispam
- Email encryption
- Cloud backup
- Logging/quarantine
ZIX review
- Excellent encryption
- One of the market leaders
- Ease of use after implementation
- Ease of use. Other competitors platform is WAY easier to use and customize.
- You have to cover THE ENTIRE ORGANIZATION with coverage, even though only a handful will need to use email encryption
- The Zix Protect platform is a complete joke to customize and use.
- Email Encryption - Their protocols are secure, and the process to encrypt is completely customizable with different methods available to provide ease of use for our employees at different levels of computer knowledge.
- Spam Filtering - Thus far their spam filtering has been top notch and the configuration options provided allow for a very detailed level of granularity depending on user and department.
- Corporate branding - With any encrypted emails sent by our organization, they are branded prominently for us with our logos and name which aids significantly in maintaining a professional appearance.
- The only area I've found that needs work is in creating a custom filter rule. They have the option available but it didn't work as well as it should without contacting support. They had to bounce it to a higher level of support so it could be addressed on the development end. However it was resolved quickly and they did whatever they had to do to make it work as it should.
- There was some issue with communication between their sales department and the deployment team who assisted us, however they were able to get the issues resolved quickly so it was a minimal issue.
Done and dusted!
- Protection of personal information gets restricted when sent out by mistake
- Credit card fraud is defended by no details leaking out
- Ease of use and integration into Outlook
- Full HIPAA compliance
- Not all third party email clients are supported
- Encrypted replied remain in the system and do not sync back to the end user
- Recipients of the emails might be confused around replying
Zip your way to a secure email with ZIX!
- I put the ZIX tutorial button and the login button on our bank's website for our customers to be able to use to contact us.
- Customers send all the banking information to send and receive wire transfers. We used to enforce in person only.
- I receive all the outside emails from our customers and they were not able to send sensitive information before. Now they can give me everything I need to research before I call them back!
- I am able to securely send contracts with sensitive information.
- I don't like that it skips a line when hitting "enter". Especially for my signature and info area.
- I would like more fonts.
Zix Review
- Great support
- Integration with GSuite
- Ability to send larger attachments
- Encrypts and secures e-mail: Zix transports emails through its own secure, off-network system so attackers have little chance at getting the info to begin with, let alone decrypting it.
- Rules: Zix lets you set up rules to scan for certain topics or data, like socials or medical data, and then respond accordingly. This means not all e-mail has to go out secure, only the stuff that really needs to be.
- Accessibility: Recipients who do not have Zix get a link to log on to a portal where they can read their secure messages, but if they have Zix on their own network, the e-mails come through directly to their inbox with a small header that says it was sent securely.
- Configuration: The UI to configure Zix is rather dated and non-intuitive at times. Some of the configuration options aren't well documented.
- Updates: I have yet to be able to update Zix without calling support. It is a complicated process. Updating the rules files is easy enough, I just wish the rest of the software was as simple.
- Recipient UI: While it's nice to have a portal for recipients without Zix to log in to, it looks very dated, much like the other UIs. We've had vendors ask us if it was legitimate because of how basic it is.
Zix from a user perspective
- Customizable DLP filters.
- Easy management.
- Management interfaces are not that intuitive.
- Customer support is not as attentive as other products.
Has Potential
- Its data loss protection filter works particularly well with very little false positives.
- Seamless encryption for sending emails to existing Zix customers is a plus.
- The hosted platform could use a much-needed facelift. Can be a bit cumbersome to use and is not very easy to navigate.
- The ZixOne App should incorporate access to the local calendars on the device. Many users use local calendars to coordinate their personal and work life and not having this functionality has been a burden. Inserting attachments in messages with this app is also clunky as you can only attach one picture or file at a time (no multiple selections) and it goes into the body of the message instead of being a separate attachment.
Early review!
- Since we have only been using Zix for a few weeks, I have very limited experience to base comments on. Our initial experience is that it appears easy for clients to use (not necessarily true for third parties with which we deal).
- The fact that key words or phrases will trigger email being sent by Zix is a great feature.
- Zix appears to be user friendly within our staff.
- Our real estate paralegal reports that lenders and other companies which have heightened security on their end are not always able to receive email that has been sent securely by our office users of Zix.
- When our emails are not received because of lack of compatability, we experience problems.
Positive review with apprehension
- As the Compliance Officer, it helps me sleep at night knowing that there is gatekeeper before that information is sent out.
- The set up was a bit difficult and took significantly more time than originally anticipated to get started. The company implementing the level of Zix that we have that does the scanning really needs to be sure they have a tech person to do the implementation.
- When an email is sent securely, it should show a badge of some sort, like what appears on receipient's emails with the blue banner saying it was sent securely. As the sender, it is very unnerving to just have to trust that it worked the way that you hoped it would. I know you can force encryption but that really defeats the purpose of having the enhanced platform that we have.
- Although it is nice to have zix to zix customers be able to communicate freely (as both are encrypted) the same problem as above still arises, that there is no indication that the email was sent securely. I worry about this most when we send patient reports to our hospitals who are not familiar with our usage of Zix and may then question why we didn't send securely.
A little overkill for a small business, but does the job.
- Helps with Spam block
- Helps encrypt important emails
- It can improve on the amount of work it takes to implement the software.
