I have been selling Webroot SaaS services for years now and we have defense contractors, healthcare centers and a slew of businesses in all the other verticals enjoying rock-solid email security and web security using Webroot's global server clusters. Up time has been 100% and their technical support is second to none. These guys really understand security and that helps drive repeat business as well as new business. Websense is not the only player out there. Bob Stevens echoes my sentiments exactly.

SaaS vendor Webroot have been providing secure email and web security, email encryption and email archiving out of their worldwide set of 8 dedicated data centers for 8 years. While their SLA guarantees 99.999% uptime, their track record is 100% coverage. They have never had a break in security. One of the things I like about working with Webroot is that they have close to 100% client retention rate for their services. My clients are happy with both the service and the price. Another example of excellence is SaaS vendor LiveOffice. LiveOffice provides both hosted Exchange as well as email archiving. LiveOffice have the largest percentage of any email hosted archiving vendor in that space having been doing so for 10 years.
