We performed a comparison between Symantec Endpoint Encryption and Vormetric Data Security Platform [EOL] based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out what your peers are saying about Microsoft, McAfee, Sophos and others in Endpoint Encryption."We use it for protecting accounts, which is its most valuable feature."
"It is fairly stable."
"The solution is great for large-scale deployments."
"It has reduced the number of incidents related to the loss of information."
"Disk encryption and file and folder encryption are the most valuable and used features. It is also very well integrated with Symantec Messaging Gateway and Symantec DLP, which is helpful in protecting any kind of information that goes outside. Symantec DLP catches an email and sends it to the encryption server. The encryption server encrypts the email and intimates to the user that confidential information is being sent out. The administrator can then take appropriate action."
"The management console gives us the ability to quickly control who sees what, ensures we are on the latest version, and up-to-date."
"The installation process is pretty straightforward."
"We find the dashboard, endpoint mobile encryption, and email encryption valuable."
"The solution is reliable and stable. You can edit it and it's flexible."
"The product can be expensive. Price was a factor in moving away from the product."
"It's difficult to integrate the solution with the DLP"
"One feature that is lacking is integration with Symantec Information Centric (ICT). As it is now, I don't see how to integrate the encryption with ICT, and in my opinion this is an area that certainly requires encryption, even though it's no longer supported by Broadcom."
"Its remote deployment should be improved. Currently, there is no remote deployment for Symantec Endpoint Encryption. You have to install it manually. There are some issues with AD integration and the time taken to reflect a password on the Endpoint Encryption Manager when a new user has changed the password, but they are already working on these issues, and these will be resolved in the next release."
"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."
"Upgrades from one version to another may only sometimes be straightforward, especially if one needs a clearer understanding of the process."
"They have too high of a price tag. That's why they're losing the market share."
"The solution does not have endpoint control."
"The solution really needs to improve the data pile. With the pile, if we could also do a column-level encryption or something like third-level encryptions that would be great. It would be a slight variation of same product."
