Mirapoint RazorGate 100 review

Does exactly what it says on the tin (cliché but true)


We tested a RazorGate 100 in front of our 400-user Exchange server 2 months ago, following an unpleasant Barracuda experience (still trying to get a refund) and refused to give it back at the end of the trial. We're seeing Mailhurdle discard ~75% of spam before the scanning processes weed out all but a small quantity of the remainder. The reduction in mail traffic also has a big knock-on effect for my admin duties. I now spend 20 minutes over a coffee in the morning reviewing the contents of the quarantine instead of a painful 2-hour slog.

The RazorGate 100 has the same few quirks I've encountered in Mirapoint's mail servers before. Some work needs to be done to expose low-level CLI features in the browser interface, and LDAP integration to Active Directory works well but could be made much easier.
