We performed a comparison between Microsoft Purview Data Governance and Vanta based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Data Governance solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."Microsoft Purview stands out for its automatic data recovery system, which prioritizes critical data for the fastest restoration."
"It gives you the opportunity to know your data and apply policies around it. If those policies are flouted, you can always track what's happening. You have options such as alerting the person who is committing that action, or you can take automatic action by blocking, for example, an email that is been sent externally. It's very useful."
"I use the tool in projects as a medium to provide information as reports to the stakeholders."
"The user interface is highly intuitive and user-friendly."
"Microsoft Purview is scalable."
"The most valuable aspect of Purview is its PowerShell connectivity, enabling automation."
"It is very easy to learn the interface, and it is very user-friendly."
"MIP also provides strong information rights management settings, such as the ability to specify who has access to content and at what time."
"The product has provided automated security controls for our cloud provider. It helps to automate security checks. Vanta offers a list of things that can be done to achieve ISO 27001 compliance."
"The most valuable feature of Vanta would be the time savings from the automation and the continuous compliance monitoring once set up."
"The most valuable feature of Vanta is its prebuilt control frameworks."
"It helps us track the compliance of the components listed in our partner's directory. We can also check if the password manager, XML, and three log policies have been properly implemented on the desktop."
"Another area for improvement is in managing the business glossary terms. If they could provide the same type of method that we use to configure the scan rule sets, that would be helpful. Currently, there is no option like this, so we have to do it manually. Automatic detection would be great."
"While Purview's data connector platform can ingest information from non-Microsoft data sources, it is slow to do so and the information may become outdated."
"Non-Microsoft use cases are not very high. It's limited for now."
"There are some limitations with regard to the lineage of data from different parts of the system."
"While Microsoft Purview currently allows weekly scans for data sources, this limitation hinders the usefulness of the tool for frequently changing data."
"We have had a lot of issues since we moved to Unified Support. There have been work gaps there, and we believe they fixed them, but we need to make sure that they are going to be sustainable. It is to be seen."
"I have some concerns about the separation of roles in Purview from the Microsoft tenant, as well as how they interact with the security portal and endpoint manager."
"Frequent daily updates from Microsoft can cause interface elements like buttons to appear and disappear, making navigation unpredictable."
"There is a delay with customer support and they are unsure of the answers we need."
"The main area for improvement in Vanta is the user interface's refresh rate."
"Currently, Vanta's user access review module is still in development, and we've been giving them continuous feedback to help them improve that."
"Some of the tool's automated tests do not work the way it should."
