PerfectMail Solutions - Highly Competitive Prices
With No Per-Domain License restrictions
At XPMsoftware, we charge a modest user license fee for our product.
Our per-user license fee is one of the lowest in the industry.
We know there are some products that do not charge user licenses - and we considered doing
likewise, but in the end it simply didn't make sense. We know that business
needs products that do a
superior job at a fair price - with no hidden costs. PerfectMail delivers with
products that are accurate, consistent,
fast, scalable, easy to troubleshoot and transparent to end users.
We provide you with four deployment options (most competitors offer only one or two)
and with products that truly deliver on improved productivity and security.
There is much more to the price of your antispam solution than sticker price of the product.
Antispam customers face widely varying implementation and administration
costs that often exceed the product cost by 500% or more.
Here are just a few of the factors that can influence the true cost of
ownership of your antispam solution:
- We don't Sell Underpowered Appliances
To keep costs down, many appliance vendors build their products with ultra-low cost PC
hardware and slow consumer rated hard disks.
These underpowered products are easily overwhelmed
by corporate e-mail volumes that work the appliance beyond the component's rated duty
cycle. Can you really tolerate e-mail failures caused by underpowered hardware?
- We offer Four Delivery Models
Most of our competitors employ a single antispam delivery model.
They either offer an appliance, a
software product you install and configure or a managed service. We offer all of these
delivery models and also offer PerfectMail virtual machines. Don't let your vendor dictate
how you protect your organization. Pick a solution that meets your business, technical and
cost objectives.
- Buy Only the User Licenses You Need
Sure, unlimited users sounds good... but it may not be a good fit for your business because
you don't have unlimited employees. An unlimited
user license on an underpowered machine is no bargain if you have to upgrade it or buy a
second appliance to keep mail flowing. Unlimited users are also no bargain if the appliance
costs $10,000 to protect 100 users. In fact, the only way you really know you are getting a
fair price is to work out the cost per user.
- No Hidden Limitation
Unlimited users might sound good... but what if you are restricted to just a few domains or
very low e-mail activity?
Most companies own multiple domains and e-mail activity can spike unpredictably, so
restrictions on domains or e-mail volume may severely impact your ability
to protect your organization.
- Everything You Need Is Included
E-mail is still a major conduit for viruses, worms, Phishing threats and more. So, your
e-mail filter better include effective antivirus and antiphishing protection. Some vendors
charge a premium for antivirus and antiphishing... significantly increasing the cost of the
product. We include effective antivirus, file attachment and Phishing protection into
PerfectMail at no additional cost.
- Avoid Administrator Overload
A low cost antispam solution that requires constant tuning, training and troubleshooting is
no bargain. E-mail administrators are expensive resources; if they spend 4 hours per day
solving e-mail problems, your antispam solution is actually costing you $30,000/year.
An effective antispam solution should free up their time - not monopolize it.
- No User Training
PerfectMail is transparent to end users so user productivity is protected.
Many entry level antispam products are not effective until they are trained to
recognize spam. Who trains the filter? You, your staff and your technical
team; often for weeks or months. This is a huge waste of time and
costs you a fortune in lost productivity.
- Avoid Server Resource Theft
PerfectMail runs outside of your mail server while many low cost competitors run on your mail
server. E-mail hardware and software products are expensive to purchase,
license and run, and they need all of
the resources they can get. If you install low-cost antispam software on your e-mail server, the
antispam tool may rob your e-mail server of the resources it needs to handle e-mail
efficiently. The result could be costly server upgrades or slower e-mail processing.
- PerfectMail Does Not Use Quarantines
Quarantines are e-mail jails where suspected spam languishes until some user releases it.
Products that use quarantines run the risk of delaying critical business correspondence that
can jeopardize deals, waste time and leave customers feeling ignored. PerfectMail delivers
your critical business e-mail correctly every time.
- PerfectMail Makes the Tough Decisions - Correctly
Look at the graphs on the left. The Yellow line represents
the uncertainty level of a live PerfectMail appliance (you may have to squint to see it!).
While the percentage can vary with
spam activity, PerfectMail typically delivers an uncertainty score well under 1%. The result
is almost no spam in your in-basket and no lost e-mail. Many competing products have
uncertainty levels as high as 30-40%. With these products, your staff either read a lot of
spam or loose a lot of legitimate e-mail.
How do you decide? Talk to people running the products you are considering. Find out the
true hidden costs before making any decision. Ask vendors for a free trial. Put the product
into service and see how long it takes you to install, configure, tune and train the filter.
Consider all of the costs before making a decision.

trouble.
