Since the day I had started working in corporate world, I got to know that Security has to be given utmost priority. And for that, most important thing is that we have to secure our emailing system. Here comes the role of SecureMyEmail. It gives an extra layer of security and authentication, and its actually very easy to implement. This software had been used by me so long and the frequencies of using it every day, that I can't even remember. And most importantly, its free to use. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Since I had to secure only one email address, so I didn't had to pay a single penny from my pocket. But yes, if you are trying to secure more than one account, that it is chargeable, which is again very nominal. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
- Compatible with both personal and domain emails
- End-to-end encryption
- Easy Setup (not that technical for an SE and to use and no intervention of a back-end engineer required)
- Phishing prevention
- They also offer a a free version and a trial to test out the features before signing up. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
- Very flexible pricing although product competitors offer individual, family or business plans (like Proton Mail)
- Not supported on legacy mail system or tools like Zoho mail.
- The sender and the recipient needs to have SecureMyEmail for the end-to-end encryption mentioned.
- Not sure what encryption mechanism they're using and how does the decryption work. There should be a knowledge base for such things.
- They talk so much about how the email providers lack in encryption and how they used outdated methods or prehistoric methods using S/MIME and PGP in their article but never mention what are they doing differently.

The best thing is that its free to use for personal accounts such as Gmail, etc, that too, as a complete software. I like how it is PGP based and serves as a good starting point for privacy focused people. The feature to set email expiration has also been helpful at times.

It feels like it's just a PGP wrapper and it cannot be used with edu emails free of cost. I'm also not fond of this implementation which keeps a software running in my background all the time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
It gives me added security for my email without me having to create a new email account and then go through the stuggle of changing all my accounts over to my new email like ive had to do in the past Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I haven't really had anything that I have disliked about this service. It does exactly what it promises and does what I was looking for. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
