WHAT PEOPLE SAY

Delivering peace of mind

Steve Miller COO, Microsoft Asia

You’re only as strong as the weakest link in your organisation. And when you have links, literal links coming to every single person within your business, how are you thinking about securing them? How are you thinking about protecting them? But also, in a way that enables them to take advantage of everything that the digital economy brings with it.  

There is nothing more important than making the people who are using your technology and thriving on technology, secure and safe.  

 Our partnership with MailGuard is incredibly important to Microsoft, not just in Australia, but globally.   

You are being led by what I see as one of the world’s best, at preventing and protecting your secure infrastructure, securing your people, and securing your business for the months and the years ahead.  

Don't be the people who put it off and waited to try and secure their infrastructure and their organisation.   

 

Hon. Malcolm Turnbull Former Australian Prime Minister

Rodney Clarke Corporate Vice President, Channel Sales, Microsoft

The partnership that we have built together is powerful! The innovation that MailGuard brings to the market and the ability to protect customers environments is critical to creating peace of mind for everyone. Thank you for defining a solution to safeguard our customers!”

Harald Horgen President, The York Group

We have been working with partners for more than 25 years, and have always been impressed with their commitment to bringing the best technologies to their clients. MailGuard is one of those technologies – any partner selling Mivrosoft 365 will want to recommend MailGuard as a simple and inexpensive way to future-proof their clients against the growing number of e-mail security threats.

BRUCE KERR MANAGING DIRECTOR, KERR IT SOLUTIONS

"Around 50% of every 100 emails that are addressed to my work email address are simply spam and junk mails. MailGuard knocks these out before they even get to my mailbox! 

  

Using this same service across dozens of our customers, 50% is a very average or standard figure. For one customer that has had the same email address for years we see MailGuard filter out around 96% of their emails every month! Can you imagine the time saving here?" 

LESLEY IVEY PRACTICE MANAGER, PRIVATE MEDICAL CONSULTING
"I appreciate MailGuard every day without fail! Your service is exemplary. Thank you."
ANGUS MANSFIELD MANAGING DIRECTOR, XCENTRAL
"It’s difficult to prove to a client what may have happened if their email systems weren't protected by MailGuard, because MailGuard obviously stops the threat before they can see or act on it and experience the damage. The best stories we do have of our clients involve us showing clients MailGuard-related reports and seeing their expression when they see what is being blocked. The numbers can be staggering, and their sense of feeling protected is really evident."
MARK TOBIN ICT MANAGER, THE FRUIT BOX

"I’ve seen what ransomware can do to a business and I didn’t want that to happen to The Fruit Box Group. We were running O365 and I didn’t think the native O365 filtering was strong enough. With just under 40k emails hitting our domains each week we felt exposed. We wanted to harden our security so we looked at a number of options and eventually settled for MailGuard.

Since implementing MailGuard 3 years ago we have much more confidence in our ability to repel email delivered threats. We can virtually see MailGuard’s quarantine engine working in real time filtering spam and malicious content. Reporting and control over quarantine can easily be administered in the MailGuard control panel, including a host of other tools enabling Admins to alert, drill down, track, whitelist & blacklist. Another key reason we chose MailGuard was the local presence and support. We have a dedicated account manager and their 24/7 technical support is readily available to assist with anything we need.

I would highly recommend MailGuard to any business looking to strategically enhance security in response to today’s current cybercrime landscape."

FILIPA PRESTON MANAGING DIRECTOR, SOS
"MailGuard reduces the noise of malicious cyber activity and makes us more secure. It minimises the amount of irrelevant content that’s clogging our mailboxes, and reduces our risk. That is the selling point for me. Another selling point is that it is attached to Office 365. It’s an add-on, meaning it works with what we’ve got right now. It’s not like I have to go get a ton of other different things that are as equally as effective as Office 365, and compatible with it. MailGuard grants me the added protection and peace of mind that I want."
DAVID WHITE DIRECTOR, WHITE IT
"MailGuard’s fully managed services deliver peace of mind. We know that that our email environment is as efficient as possible and that our systems are systems are fully protected. Another one of the biggest benefits of using MailGuard is the ease of the service. It is very easy to use, and I enjoy its simplicity"
PERRY ASKEW BUSINESS DEVELOPMENT MANAGER, BAMITS
"MailGuard has always been very proactive on its standpoint towards external threats and this is clearly evident in the delivery of their services. They are prompt, reliable and efficient which is necessary for BAMITS, so it allows us to relay that same service to our clients." What I love about using MailGuard is that it allows us a lot more flexibility when dealing with each client. No business is the same, so we appreciate the fact that MailGuard gives us the flexibility to create custom and unique policies required for each business!"
CHRISTOS PAVLOU NATIONAL SALES MANAGER, EMERGING IT
"I've always been a huge advocate of multi-layered security. MailGuard is able to seamlessly stack with native Office 365 security - this makes it harder for spam to hit our mailbox and greatly reduces the risk of spam emails being opened."
ANTHONY QUARESIMA CTO, PREMIER TECHNOLOGY SOLUTIONS
“Email protection is such a critical part of protecting a business that we include MailGuard in all our managed service agreements, without offering an ‘ala carte’ product selection. When partnering with MailGuard, work out your on-boarding process and understand the optimal way to rollout the product in a standardised manner to your client base. We knew what we wanted and after one workshop with the Service Manager at MailGuard, we were able to create a process that allowed us to migrate over a hundred clients within the month, with minimal fuss.”
Daniel de Jager CISO, SILK LOGISTICS HOLDINGS

The smooth flow of electronic data is essential to our supply chain operations. Any disruption to this data flow could halt our logistics processes, affecting everything from trucks moving to goods being unpacked at shopping centres. Ensuring these systems are operational is a priority for us, and it is something that keeps us vigilant daily.

After a comprehensive technical fit assessment and internal discussions, the decision to adopt MailGuard became a logical and strategic choice for us.

Simplifying processes is key, especially when you don’t have a massive team in-house. The support we received from partners like MailGuard has been invaluable to date. The support team is highly responsive and knowledgeable, which has made a big difference for us. They have a deep understanding of what they are doing, and their experience shows.

During the transition to MailGuard, their support was exceptional. For instance, when we carried out the cutover, we experienced minimal false positives-far fewer than what we anticipated. This kind of smooth transition is a testament to the team’s expertise and commitment.

What stands out is that they go beyond just meeting the SLA requirements, they are proactive in ensuring everything runs smoothly. This level of dedication is exactly what we need in a partner, given the critical nature of email security in our operations.

There is no room for complacency. We have seen other companies in our sector experience significant impacts, often because of phishing attacks or not patching internet facing assets. It is a harsh reality of the cybersecurity landscape, and we need to stay ahead by being vigilant and proactive.

Tools like MailGuard give us visibility into the types of threat we’re facing. These insights are vital as they help us understand the tactics used by attackers and to adjust our defences accordingly.

Our layered security approach, combining solutions like MailGuard and Defender 365, has proven effective in mitigating these threats, and we haven’t seen any significant incidents of credential compromise.
