Featured Reviews

AtulVats - PeerSpot reviewer
Complete end-to-end security with better support than its competitors
The post-optical character recognization feature could be improved because it only really works on documents with some length (at least three paragraphs). If someone has copied half a paragraph or half the content from a webpage, it doesn't work. In the next release, Forcepoint should include DLP, antivirus, and encryption in the same solution, which would resolve many of the IT problems we face.
Marcelo Grandchamp - PeerSpot reviewer
Enables organizations to monitor the network and protect themselves from data leakage
The initial setup process is very simple and easy. We have no issues to do it for ourselves or our customers. The deployment takes less than 20 days. The integration is very simple. However, first, we must understand what we want to have on our network and what we want to prevent. If we don't have this information before we start the configuration, we will be lost. We must know what kind of protection we need in our company. We have LGPD in Brazil. It is similar to GDPR in Europe. It prevents any personal information from being linked to other companies without permission. We have to take care of the personal information of our customers, employees, and partners. To deploy the tool, we must understand what we need to do. We must download the whole package and have our infrastructure ready to receive it. We must get the SSL certification and start to configure our platform. When the process is finished, we must roll out a small portion of our network to ensure everything will be well. After that, we must do the full rollout.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"The built-in rules, templates, and content classifiers are among the most valuable features. Some of the built-in patterns are good places to get started with. Along with the phrases, they are helpful in putting together policies and fine-tuning our policies."
"The integration is great."
"The GUI is very intuitive. That is the way I would explain its ease of use. It is straightforward."
"Our organization's intellectual property is not misused or extracted without permission."
"Stable and scalable solution for data protection. It offers good technical support, and has no major installation issues."
"The real-time analytics feature is helpful. It alerts within seconds and promptly informs management of any potential security issues."
"The most valuable feature of Forcepoint Data Loss Prevention is the OCR."
"Some good features are basically its UAV Analytics engine. And even fingerprinting is really good in Forcepoint."
"The most valuable feature is we can develop what we want. If we have an old or new requirement, they are able to support us to develop it all within one month."
"I am impressed with the tool's ease of deployment."
"The classifications in place are very helpful in making policies for ensuring sensitive data can be contained."
"This solution helps classify what is confidential and what is not, allowing products to be installed at home if they do not contain confidential information."
"The monitoring features are valuable."
"They have a fingerprint feature that is very awesome. OCR is very awesome to have too."
"The main thing that I like about GTB is that it has a single agent for DLP and data classification. You can use the same agent. In terms of licensing too, it has a single license. When it comes to data classification, it supports open-source document platforms such as ChainSoft and OpenOffice."
"The product has a centralized console for everything."
 

Cons

"The support could improve Forcepoint Data Loss Prevention."
"Everything can be improved and maybe there is a way to improve the user experience through the interface."
"The APIs for device integration are limited, so that could be improved."
"I am really impressed by the interface and management console but the requirements are very high and the response time is too slow."
"I can't push a report by a certain organizational entity or unit without a lot of work. The reporting could be better."
"It should integrate better with email."
"In terms of display, the support and the Mac platform requires a lot of improvement."
"Usually for the biome of a small company, like 50 users, setup takes more than one week."
"The tool should include better AI features."
"The product needs to improve its support so that users can just log in and create tickets as opposed to sending emails. Sending emails is difficult to track. It also needs to work on its analytics platform."
"The performance could be better."
"The solution’s performance must be improved."
"To stay competitive, they should expand to smartphones."
"The solution could improve by providing additional availability requirements."
"They have a roadmap for the Linux platform and Mac as well, and in the next quarter, they might have patch management also for Windows. However, they don't have that much for Linux and Mac. So, we need those things in Linux and Mac as well."
"It would be great if they have information rights management (IRM) on the same agent."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"They are flexible regarding the pricing and they have a good model for an OEM data classification tool... Forcepoint has been one of the most competitively priced products over the last few years."
"I rate the tool's pricing a six out of ten."
"Pricing for this solution could be better."
"I can't comment on the cost, as a different department handles that."
"They have to look at a different pricing structure for small to medium-sized enterprises because the cost is too high."
"I prefer Forceoint because it is cheaper than Symantec."
"One feature that I'm getting ready to take advantage of more is the ability to add more data crawlers to the DLP on-prem environment, without any extra Forcepoint costs or licensing needed for that additional data server. That will help in reducing the stress on the data server that we're using now."
"The pricing for Forcepoint Data Loss Prevention is more expensive than Symantec, but it's negotiable. It depends on how well you negotiate. The solution is worth the money, though, based on the services and facilities it provides to my company."
"The tool is not expensive."
"When comparing GTB Technologies Inspector to other solutions you receive a good value for your money when considering all the features and benefits."
"They offer a lot of features in a single bundle. So, if you want to remove some features from GTB, you can remove those. You don't need to buy those, and the price will reduce accordingly. I am very happy with the pricing."
"The tool's pricing is affordable and based on the number of endpoints."
"Its price is very reasonable and competitive."
"The tool has a fair price."
