Frequently Asked Questions

What happened to Valimail?

Valimail was acquired by DigiCert in September 2025. Their product has been integrated into DigiCert ONE with enterprise-only pricing (estimated $50K+/year). They have effectively exited the SMB market, leaving an estimated 15-20K smaller customers looking for alternatives.

Is Vysiro a good Valimail replacement for SMBs?

Yes. Vysiro provides DMARC monitoring, SPF/DKIM analysis, and email security features comparable to Valimail's core offering, plus SSL/TLS inspection, DNSSEC validation, PQC readiness, and compliance proof packs. The key difference is accessibility: Vysiro starts at $29/mo with self-serve signup versus Valimail's enterprise-only pricing.

Does Valimail offer features Vysiro does not?

Yes. Valimail's SPF flattening/macro management is more mature, and they hold FedRAMP authorization which is critical for US government contracts. Valimail also has deeper automated DMARC enforcement workflows specifically designed for large enterprises with hundreds of sending sources. Vysiro acknowledges these as genuine strengths.

How does Vysiro handle the transition from Valimail?

Since both platforms monitor the same DNS records, migration is seamless. Add your domains to Vysiro and you immediately get a full TrustScore across 29 categories. No DNS changes are needed. Vysiro will detect your existing DMARC, SPF, and DKIM configurations automatically.

Is Valimail still available as a standalone product?

As of March 2026, Valimail's capabilities are being sold as part of DigiCert ONE. The standalone Valimail product is being sunsetted. New customers are directed to DigiCert's enterprise sales process. Existing customers are being migrated to DigiCert ONE contracts.

Why is Valimail so much more expensive than Vysiro?

Valimail targets Fortune 500 enterprises and government agencies, where $50K+/year is a standard security tool budget. Their FedRAMP certification and dedicated account management justify enterprise pricing for that segment. Vysiro targets SMBs, startups, and MSPs who need full domain security without enterprise budgets or sales cycles.
