"Search feature is valuable for our customers."
"The most valuable features are automatic document and email retention."
"Data retention is very valuable to us."
"Google Vault acts as a great method for retrieving files from Google Drive and Gmail."
"Google Vault is a solution we can use for the data export of end-users."
"My impression is that the initial setup process is not that difficult."
"The most valuable feature of Google Vault is its reliability."
"It's a perfect business pump filter. We have much less false positives, and also less spam than other organizations."
"Google Vault needs to improve its data export timing because sometimes, it takes a very long time to export the data."
"Searching could be improved. There's a lot of limitations when searching with Google Vault."
"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."
"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."
"The knowledge base is not as in-depth as it should be."
"eDiscovery could be improved with additional information and an easier way to retain it."
"Google Vault lacks speed."
"So, when doing a search, perhaps in some instances when you use terms, the information is not very precise in the sense that I'm not getting what I'm looking for. And in some instances, the information, not all the time, but in some instances, it might not be accurate. For example, when doing a search, if you use too many terms, it might not return any results."
"The solution needs to be more user-friendly. I don't want to have to go to my IT guy and have him explain aspects of the solution to me. There should be a way for them to be able to translate aspects of the product to a typical user in a clear concise way."
