    Sick of Spam?

    By Adam Griffith, in Web Design, Web Development

    Spam now accounts for up to 83% of all emails, frustrating consumers and costing businesses billions in lost productivity and wasted bandwidth. And the bad news is that this is expected to continue to rise.

     

    Get Started's test with MailGuard

    It is for this reason that Get Started went to market to find the best Anti-Spam and Anti-Virus provider in Australia. The result of that search was MailGuard. Since signing up our own domain (getstarted.com.au) we've received reports that say we get over 40,000 spam emails per week! We also receive a large proportion of emails with potential viruses.

     

    MailGuard works for us - it can work for you too

    After completing the successful trial on our own domain, Get Started partnered with MailGuard to provide you (our clients) with an enterprise-grade Managed Email Security service. If you're interested in dramatically reducing your spam then give us a call and we'll get you going with MailGuard. I also recommend downloading the brochure below which details the service they provide.
