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."The most significant value lies in its seamless integration into the Azure ecosystem, automating various processes and reducing operational burdens."
"It has notable features for maximizing the value of your data. The data discovery and the data analytics parts are great both on-premises and on-cloud."
"Purview helped us automate and control our data without having to rely on people to manually tag documents with specific retention periods."
"Their data labeling or data classification is particularly valuable because we want to categorize all of our data into confidential, public, or internal."
"The ability to classify data quickly and effortlessly is arguably Microsoft Purview's most valuable feature."
"The data classification part of the solution is excellent, especially as it gives us an insight into our sensitive data within Microsoft 365."
"The documentation is very exhaustive. Anyone can go ahead and try different use cases."
"Data segregation is the most valuable feature."
"The tool gives us the ability to trace the path of an incident."
"This product makes it easy to manage personal data."
"One valuable aspect of the solution is its cloud-based nature. Users can just pay the fees and get started instantly."
"It supports only a limited number of tools and technologies that pertain to Microsoft products. If you want to leverage other solutions such as Workday or Oracle Fusion, features will be coming up, but as of now, it is for the Microsoft suite."
"Overcoming certain control issues would significantly enhance our overall satisfaction."
"There are differences when looking at an incident in the M365 portal versus Purview, and the main one is the advanced hunting. In the M365 portal, you can write KQL queries and fetch data. If that was available in Purview, it would be very good."
"There are negatives to the compliance aspect of Purview in that you get a lot of false positives with some of the native scanning and rules in the platform. A lot of them need tweaking to get a more realistic handle on what data there is."
"Some of the menu headings may not be easy to understand for some people."
"If we could have a view something like we have in CrowdStrike—which is, I believe, the biggest competitor to Microsoft when it comes to security—a node nodal view, which we also have in Defender, that would make it a more complete, one-stop solution. That would save a lot of time for the admins and the engineers."
"The product needs improvement to edit the number of assets. It needs to be more inuitive as well."
"Privacy features should be integrated into the core product rather than offered as optional add-ons, as privacy is not a luxury but a fundamental requirement."
"Deployment is a big issue."
"The tool is an amalgam. It's a collection of loosely integrated pieces and parts that don't work well together. There is room for improvement there. My team reached out to the support team, and their experience was not satisfactory."
"The integration with third-party products could be better."
