Broadcom Symantec
“Symantec’s absorption into Broadcom took a major SEG player (No. 3 according to Omdia’s market data) into what I’ll call a rather more conservative stance vis-à-vis the market, and certainly all the main competitors have more or less explicit Symantec replacement offerings in place as a result,” Turner said. “It’s not that Symantec’s core technology in email security isn’t good, and it certainly has any number of happy and satisfied customers, but it’s not being marketed anywhere near as actively or aggressively as it once was, and I have serious doubts about the rate at which new features and functionality will be added under the Broadcom banner.”
Broadcom is listed as a strong performer on the Q2 2021 Forrester Wave for Email Security.
