Automation has given us consistent analytics and improved quality of insights into user activity

Pros

"One of the valuable features of Purview is the ability to create a legal hold on a user's account within the compliance portal. That's pretty useful when it comes to any litigation or if you want to redeem the content within a mailbox, OneDrive, or a generic public SharePoint site."

Cons

"A site can have different containers where you store data. We have always wanted to apply compliance, labels, and policies at the container level, rather than to an outer shell or at the site level. That is something we have been looking forward to and I believe Microsoft is already planning something like that."

Integrates well, connects with iOS and Android devices, and takes into account critical regulations from around the world

Pros

"I rate Microsoft Purview Data Loss Prevention's stability a ten out of ten."

Cons

"They do not provide language options beyond the ones already available, so our language option is missing."

Has great documentation but needs to have a more well-defined security operation area

Pros

"When you are going to use Microsoft Purview Data Loss Prevention, most of the setup is already done by default as per your needs."

Cons

"All the security operations are better defined in Forcepoint, while in Microsoft Purview Data Loss Prevention, you will have to use a specific workflow and then an application to release blocked emails."

Nice dashboard, good data loss prevention, and helps with compliance

Pros

"If we can prevent information from going out, eventually, when a regulator is asking about our security measures, we can show what we've been doing."

Cons

"It could cover more solutions and technologies."

An affordable and easily scalable tool that decreases the risk of data leakage in an organization

Pros

Cons

"The support is poor."

Provides the mature O365 DLP, but its incident handling is pathetic

Pros

"The solution's most valuable feature is the mature O365 DLP, which works with SharePoint and Teams."

Cons

"A major improvement is required in the solution's incident handling and alerting."

Gives us great visibility into data governance, and integration with Microsoft solutions is easier

Pros

"Because everything is on Microsoft and we use Azure, integration with the product is easier. That's the most important thing when you use many Microsoft products. It's easier to integrate everything in one place."

Cons

"There is no AIP for Linux systems. That's a setback. Another thing it's lacking is libraries to work with Python. It has libraries for C# and C++, for example, but not for Python and, these days, Python is very useful."

Useful for the protection of sensitive information and is not very expensive

Pros

"The tool's most valuable feature is in the area of OCR."

Cons

"The tool's user interface and document fingerprinting have been very poor for my customers because uploading files manually can be problematic."
