“Chep is a global Company, & have invested in Hoxhund, which is such a good tool for the users to be aware of spams/Hox emails, as the fraudsters are increasing every day, this is an excellent tool to protect company's statutory & other information.”

Cons

“Some of the reports, alerts, and security language can feel too technical, especially for people who are not IT professionals.”
MC

Michelle C.

CEO

“Some advanced phishing or spoofing protections aren’t perfect and may miss high-level impersonation attacks without additional layers or tuning.”
MW

Mekailah W.

Ceo

“Steep learning curve when configuring advanced rules or email routing, and support documentation isn't always compatible with our usage scenario.”
