ProtonMail for Business (Intro to Professional Plans)

ProtonMail’s secure email service can also be used for enterprises large and small. With our Professional Accounts, your company can now use end-to-end encryption to secure your business communications.

In this article, we will provide an overview of ProtonMail Professional accounts and how they can assist your organization in securing your email communications.


How can I use ProtonMail in my business?

Every day business employees send sensitive data through email with the assumption that the information is secure and will remain private. We have seen by the ever increasing number of data breaches, that this assumption no longer holds true. Instead a better assumption is that your organization will suffer a data breach at some point in the future. ProtonMail offers a hosted email solution to ensure your information remains secure even in the event that your business does suffer a data breach.

Getting a ProtonMail Professional Account

Signing up for ProtonMail Professional is easy, you can be up an running in a few clicks. You will first need a ProtonMail account. You can signup for a free account. Once you have your account, you can upgrade to a Professional Plan through the Dashboard tab of your account within your account Settings.

    I am interested in the functionality of ProtonMail for Business. Currently we have an SMTP email server associated with our CiviCRM software, hosted on pioneervalleygreens.org

    We wish to be able to generate and send low-volume mass mailings on our server, sending them via ProtonMail for Business. Some sort of VPS bridge would be required. Is this possible?

  2. ProtonMail Support

    SMTP support in currently available via our ProtonMail Bridge app (https://protonmail.com/bridge/). The officially supported clients for use with our Bridge app are Apple Mail, Outlook, and Thunderbird. Other clients may work, but we cannot make any guarantees.

    Comment modifier le langage d’un compte (passer d’anglais à français) ?
    Merci

    To change the language your account uses, go to Settings > Account, scroll down to Language and select French from the drop-down menu.

  5. Estelle

    is it possible to have an automatic backup of emails on our own hard drive

  6. ProtonMail Support

    Automatic backup is currently not possible. We are working on developing our own Import/Export tool, which should be available in the near future.

    When I try to email my customers, It seems like I hit a ceiling of maximum 25 receivers per email. Is it really not possible to email more than 25 contacts in one go?

  14. ProtonMail Support

    The maximum recipients that can be added to a single message is 25. This includes the To, CC and BCC fields. Please be advised that ProtonMail is not designed for bulk sending.

    I am interested in having an account that supports HIPPA requirements. I see that Proton reports that they are HIPPA compliant.
    I want to know what is the best option (plan) to choose if you support HIPPA and how to receive a BAA agreement?

    Thank you.

  16. ProtonMail Support

    All ProtonMail plans have the same level of encryption. For more information about obtaining a BAA, please visit https://protonmail.com/hipaa-compliance.

  18. ProtonMail Support

    SMTP support is only available when using the Bridge with a desktop email client, and falls under the regular sending limits we have.

  19. a

    does the professional plan include the same benefits as the plus? and its 6.25 per person/email?

  20. ProtonMail Support

    The Professional plan also supports adding multiple users, as opposed to just aliases with Plus. Professional also provides the option to set a catch-all address.
    The pricing for Professional is per user.
