We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"We are able to contain our confidential data in our environment.""Symantec DLP has many servers, and the solution is very powerful because you can use it in ports, endpoints, networks, and email servers to prevent the leakage of emails. DLP can be integrated with Symantec encryption.""The most valuable feature is file-level DLP.""It can prevent copying and encoding of HTTP data to various sites like Google, and Webex.""What I like about Symantec Data Loss Prevention is the technical support it provides. It's good.""The most valuable feature of Symantec Data Loss Prevention is the ease of modification.""The data matching features are the most valuable due to the easy policy setup and implementation.""What we like about Symantec Data Loss Prevention is that it's a very good product. We never faced any problems with its performance. It has very good performance. There was this RAM issue, but it was an internal issue which we've sorted out. Apart from the RAM issue, there are no other issues with Symantec Data Loss Prevention."

"The solution's initial setup process was straightforward.""I'm not an administrator of Trend Micro Integrated Data Loss Prevention, but an end-user, and what I like about it is that it can detect events that could cause data loss. It's a good solution.""Trend Micro has improved my client's organization by recovering malware disabled network adaptors from servers.""We find the malware scanning and intrusion detection most valuable for our server management requirements. We can find out who is on our servers and what they have done.""We find the initial setup to be very easy.""The interface and dashboard are okay.""Trend Micro Integrated Data Loss Prevention is a reliable product.""None of the Trend Micro Integrated Data Loss Prevention features worked well, but the solution had a straightforward setup."

Cons
"Their support program needs a lot of improvement. If you are stuck somewhere, getting their support can be difficult.""Different departments should manage administration, reporting, normalization and incident management.""The deployment is complex.""We're not sure if there was an issue or a bug on the system recently because as of right now if someone sends out a compressed encrypted file, the DLP won't scan it.""The upgrade process is convoluted. The server and database software must run in line with third-party providers like the Oracle database. If an Oracle database reaches the end of its life, then servers must be decommissioned, and you need to bring new servers online. When the maintenance packages are deployed to the management server, they don't get pushed to the detection servers. Each detection server must be manually installed rather than automatically made from a single server. If it's a large enterprise, you need to manually install it or use a GPO or some other technology, which I never use.""Since being acquired by Broadcom, the support has really degraded for small and medium enterprises.""That fine tuning has to be done for the customer as well as the vendor. So if I take Symantec DLP, we have to have some final fine tuning but we may need some time developing this depending on the customer. This is an area where something can be done to improve the product.""What could be improved in Symantec Data Loss Prevention is its security. It should be more secure."

More Symantec Data Loss Prevention Cons →

"The tool should improve its reporting functionality. We need a proper reporting feature in a DLP solution.""Typically, DLP solutions do not cover emails without an additional component, which necessitates a dual-service proposal. Comparatively, on-premises deployments offer more features locally than online or remote deployments, which sometimes face challenges with feature support. This is a common issue with Trend.""Trend Micro Integrated Data Loss Prevention is buggy, which is one area for improvement. I also found Trend Micro Integrated Data Loss Prevention support horrible, so that's another area for improvement.""Needs a remote login option.""The solution could use better logging in the future.""Being able to specify an agent list, or client list, to allow support from outside of the organization, would be of benefit to this solution.""Having more features apart from what the product was designed for is what I'd like to see in its next release.""Within the solution, many of the functions do not perform as intended...It is not a stable solution...It is not a scalable solution."

    Overview

    Keeping sensitive corporate information safe and compliant has never been easy. But today, you’re faced with a totally new set of data protection challenges. Sensitive information is leaving the safety of your corporate network as more employees share files over consumer cloud storage services and access those files on their own mobile devices. The number of targeted cyber attacks continues to grow, as cybercriminals develop effective new methods for defeating traditional security measures and stealing corporate information. And as all of these factors converge, it becomes increasingly difficult to manage corporate information and protect it against loss and theft. 

    Symantec Data Loss Prevention (DLP) provides a comprehensive approach to information protection that embraces today’s cloud- and mobile-centered realities. With DLP, you can:

    • Discover where data is stored across all of your cloud, mobile, network, endpoint, and storage systems

    • Monitor how data is being used, whether your employees are on or off the network

    • Protect data from being leaked or stolen—no matter where it’s stored or how it’s used

    Now more than ever, your data is on the move—whether it’s on a laptop, flash drive, or moving across physical, virtual, and cloud infrastructures. At any point along the way, your financial data, customer information, intellectual property, or trade secrets could be lost or stolen. Securing this data is further complicated by several growing risk factors:

    Rapidly evolving compliance regulations and mandates, including GDPR
    Continued growth of workforce mobility
    Employees using their own mobile devices and consumer apps for work
    Rising frequency of advanced persistent threats (APTs) and data breach incidents

    To avoid the embarrassment, reputation damage, regulatory fines, and revenue loss, today’s enterprise must be able to identify, track, and secure all confidential data from multiple points within the organisation and in the cloud without impacting employee productivity and performance. In the past, many organisations tried traditional data loss prevention (DLP) solutions but found they were too intrusive, too complex to manage, and too costly to acquire, deploy, and maintain.
