Stay responsive with your anti-spam settings<\/h1>\n

One of the worst things an administrator can face is a highly limited product that requires a huge amount of effort every time the company changes something. The primary task of an administrator is to ensure the smooth running of the IT estate, including the smartphones used by the team, which therefore need good battery life<\/a> to allow optimal mobility for staff, something that is essential to the business. With this in mind, make sure you have answers to the following questions before buying a product:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. How many users can the product support? (This will give you an idea of the coverage you\u2019ll have over the next 3 to 5 years.)<\/li>\n
  2. Does the product work on a licensing basis? (Scalability)<\/li>\n
  3. Do you pay per user account? (Compare with your budget)<\/li>\n
  4. Can I add\/remove users when needed and how much work is involved? (Product flexibility)<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Ask as many questions as you like, but remember that scalability is crucial if you want 3 to 5 years of peace of mind.<\/p>\n

    Effectiveness at blocking spam<\/h2>\n

    Testing the product during a trial is the only way to know whether it is effective. Draw up a list of expectations for the product before your trial and assess these points against the trial results after 3 to 5 days of thorough testing. Given that around 68% of our daily email is spam, you\u2019ll almost certainly get conclusive results after just a few days.<\/p>\n

    Premium quality in an anti-spam solution<\/h2>\n

    You may reach a point where you have to pay more than you planned for a product that offers higher quality. However, if you\u2019re using a product that takes at least 1 hour of your time every day to manage, and your salary is at least \u20ac30\/hour, you are effectively looking at spending an extra \u20ac7,500 per year on that product (based on 250 working days per year). At that stage, price should no longer be the main issue.<\/p>\n

    Email filtering software with 24\/7 support<\/h3>\n

    Before buying a product, you need to test not only the product itself but also the support. You don\u2019t really know what level of support is provided until you\u2019ve actually had to contact the vendor\u2019s support team. By doing so, you can assess whether it is good\/better or simply poor, and it is best to do this during your trial period. If you don\u2019t, you may regret being stuck with a product that has mediocre support.<\/p>\n

    When you call to assess the support level, note the following:<\/h4>\n
      \n
    1. How long did it take to reach a real person?<\/li>\n
    2. Was the technician empathetic?<\/li>\n
    3. Were you satisfied with the answers you received?<\/li>\n
    4. How far was the technician prepared to go to resolve the issue?<\/li>\n
    5. Were you treated as a valued customer?<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

      You can even challenge them with in-depth questions to test their knowledge of the product. All these points are important in helping you choose the best product on the market. Remember that competition is fierce and you should not settle for a provider who doesn\u2019t make you feel like an important customer.<\/p>\n
