"It would be helpful, and convenient to improve the Chat support."
"I would like to see AI and machine learning added in the future."
"The backup and recovery is very resource-hungry and requires a huge amount of storage capacity."
"Micro Focus Voltage SecureData Enterprise can improve the types of encryptions. They are limited by the number of types of encryption and types of masking they are allowing. In the solution that we were using, the illustration interface and the number of capabilities in terms of data masking were limited."
"For a future release, the interface looks a bit dated and could be improved."
