Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"You can retrieve any type of data; for example, if a user accidentally deletes data, as an admin with access to Google Vault, you can easily restore the deleted data.""In my opinion, the search functionality is the best feature. With Google Vault, we can quickly search for any email within Gmail accounts. And then we can get further information, such as if you want the full header or want to know any extra details about the emails.""Google Vault is a solution we can use for the data export of end-users.""The most valuable features are automatic document and email retention.""My impression is that the initial setup process is not that difficult.""Search feature is valuable for our customers.""It is a very stable solution...It is a very scalable solution.""The most valuable feature of Google Vault is its reliability."

"Veritas Enterprise Vault is an archive solution for email and files.""Organizations can streamline governance processes and improve compliance by utilizing automated classification to tag and categorize data.""Veritas Enterprise Vault is highly stable and has low-maintenance.""The most valuable feature of Veritas Enterprise Vault is the on-premise recall from your email into Outlook.""The indexing and searching features are the most valuable features of Veritas Enterprise Vault.""The most valuable features are ease of use and performance. However, the performance can depend on the workload being used.""The stability is excellent.""The archive allows the customers to search any items as far back as five or ten years ago."

Cons
"Google Vault needs to improve its data export timing because sometimes, it takes a very long time to export the data.""It would be nice if Google would let us download the data in different formats.""The knowledge base is not as in-depth as it should be.""My personal opinion is that Google Vault could improve if they could have a similar version to Microsoft 365 where you can have an eDiscovery manager account. With this, you can separate a regular person from an organization and just transfer the specific files.""One thing I've noticed is that it splits the data files into multiple parts, like the PFT files. For example, when there is a large data size of any account, the backup process splits it into many files. This can be confusing and not very efficient when trying to manage the backups.""Google Vault lacks speed.""Although it does a good job of searching through data and exporting it, I feel that Google Vault should have more export options available to the user. As a reseller, our customers demand a lot from their Google products, and exporting is one area where there's a lot of improvement needed.""Searching could be improved. There's a lot of limitations when searching with Google Vault."

More Google Vault Cons →

"Dealing with personal information, such as documents that contain a personal number, personal ID or something like that should be improved. Sometimes it works poorly in that regard.""Veritas Enterprise Vault should improve its indexing and customization options.""Veritas Enterprise Vault's cloud backup solution should include the journal archiving feature along with the standard licensing package.""The platform's price could be affordable for small businesses.""The stability could be improved.""The solution is not user-friendly and the restoration is not fast. It's also tricky to get information from it.""I cannot perform application backup, and I am not able to repair the license.""The integration needs to improve."

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "Google Vault comes as part of a package deal for us."
  • "Last year, the price was randomly increased and our customers were really facing a challenge around this. Google launched new pricing under different plans, where formerly there were only three plans, and now there are four, each with their own separate usage allowances. I think it's good, though. The basic plan is now the Business Starter plan, and many customers find this plan very convenient and minimal in price. Overall, the pricing for all the plans is good."
  • "The solution is expensive."
  • "The pricing is fairly cheap."
  • "If you have Google Enterprise, then Google Vault is free to use."
