"It was hard to install and took us about three months."
"The solution does not have endpoint control."
"If for example, a user forgets the endpoint key, they cannot access their data. We need a support team that is a single point of contact for the IT entity to be trained and to have documentation for troubleshooting and managing the solution."
"More features need to be included in the encryption software."

"From an administration point of view, maybe it would be ideal to have it centrally managed."
