We are a Microsoft partner specializing in Microsoft Purview Information Protection which is used for digital rights management. Essentially, we integrate Microsoft Purview Information Protection into our own software products that we develop and currently deploy in various customer locations. As a small organization, we have a handful of developers who are highly productive, thanks to Microsoft Purview Information Protection. We utilize the Microsoft Purview Information Protection SDK, which is a software development kit provided by Microsoft, to integrate solutions such as SAP with the ERP, a system used by many enterprise customers. This integration allows us to maintain good communication with Microsoft as a partner, as we work alongside them on Purview Information Protection.
It is important for Microsoft Purview Information Protection to be able to connect with iOS, Mac, and Android devices. Microsoft Purview Information Protection is highly popular; it is a stable Microsoft product, and many customers are using it in their product environments. Moreover, extending its compatibility to all possible and popular operating systems, applications, and devices would be incredibly beneficial. It should not be limited only to Windows.
Not all customers use Microsoft platforms. Each person has their own software requirements, and it is crucial that Microsoft Purview Information Protection has the interface connectivity to ingest data from various non-Microsoft data sources as well. Only in this way can we attract more customers to use it, as not all of them want to be exclusively dedicated to Microsoft. Some may still be using legacy systems or other platforms.
Microsoft Purview Information Protection has significantly enhanced the security of our file system. All files within Microsoft Purview Information Protection can only be accessed by authorized users, preventing any unauthorized external access. This ensures Purview safeguards the organization's confidential data, improves the handling of critical data, and also allows us to assist other organizations in implementing Purview technology and automating encryption within their information systems. Thus, not only are we benefiting from this technology, but all our other customers as well. Microsoft Purview Information Protection is instrumental in securing their data, business files, and overall information through encryption and thorough tracking of file access and any attempted unauthorized access within the Purview ecosystem.
For our internal purposes, we are not using Purview for real-time compliance. However, our larger customers are using it for their internal complaints. We are aware of this because we interact with them and have learned that they heavily rely on Purview for managing complaints and other matters. Therefore, they want to safeguard their confidential information in accordance with their organizational requirements.
Microsoft Purview Information Protection can significantly reduce response time. Based on my knowledge, I can affirm that it offers excellent tracking capabilities and provides various insights. For instance, it enables tracking the file's movement within the organization, ensuring well-defined travel. Additionally, if an insider attempts to send the file to an external party without the company's knowledge, we can still track it. Consequently, it greatly aids in reducing response time or, at the very least, detecting issues early to take appropriate action.
All enterprises need to invest in their security, and Microsoft Purview Information Protection is beneficial in saving time and valuable information, while also ensuring data protection. With Purview, both time and information are safeguarded. Without Purview, all information remains accessible to anyone, and it can be shared externally without any restrictions, making it impossible to track data movement without software like Purview in place. Consequently, if an incident occurs, it would require significantly more time and effort to investigate the cause and identify how critical business information got leaked. Therefore, I can confidently say that Purview undoubtedly saves time for any organization.
The UI is user-friendly, and I have observed that it improves further each year.
Microsoft can improve the affordability of Purview Information Protection by offering it at a lower cost. This could be in comparison to the current pricing for enterprise customers and also for individual users. Providing an option for individuals to purchase Purview technology at a reduced cost would be beneficial. For instance, if I, as an individual, want to have Microsoft Purview Information Protection, it should be available at a more affordable price. Creating a separate low-cost version specifically tailored to individual users and a separate higher-cost version for enterprises would make the product more accessible and appealing. This approach could make Purview more popular, encouraging more individuals to start using and exploring its services.
I have been using Microsoft Purview Information Protection for five years.
Microsoft Purview Information Protection is a stable solution with few bugs. The solution undergoes thorough testing with beta versions and is experimented with by a closed group of testers before its release to the public.
I would rate Microsoft Purview Information Protection an eight out of ten.
I only have experience working with Azure Cloud, but it is a good idea and important that Microsoft Purview Information Protection is capable of extending data protection across multi-cloud platform environments, including AWS and Google Cloud platforms.
Microsoft Purview Information Protection does not require maintenance from our end.
Potential users should evaluate Microsoft Purview Information Protection. The solution is simple and straightforward. Microsoft offers extensive documentation on its website, including public spaces and community sites. Therefore, numerous questions from various customers are likely to arise. Both Microsoft developers and other people associated with Microsoft are eager to respond to these inquiries. For those who wish to evaluate the solution, I recommend joining the Microsoft community and actively participating by asking questions. There are many people available to provide answers, not only from Microsoft but also from other customers and partners who may have encountered similar issues. By being engaged in the community and regularly consulting the Microsoft documentation, we can start anywhere in the community to seek help, even if we have seemingly basic questions about the solution. People within the community will be more than happy to come forward and provide the necessary clarifications to help.
