Great customization features with ability to set risk levels
If you come with the perception that this solution uses the same policies that are used in traditional DLP products, you might find Code42 doesn't work for you. You have to adapt to their philosophy, which is a more open-ended solution. If you're looking at getting granular about a particular type of data, it becomes harder to put custom variables in there. Code42 is more open-ended and identifies or discovers data that is going out rather than having someone build a policy to filter for it. If you're willing to look at DLP and data leakage from a different perspective then I'd go with 42. I rate this solution eight out of 10.

Gives us great visibility into data governance, and integration with Microsoft solutions is easier
There is no AIP for Linux systems. That's a setback. Another thing it's lacking is libraries to work with Python. It has libraries for C# and C++, for example, but not for Python and, these days, Python is very useful. Power Automate can be improved as well. You can do plenty of things with it but it still doesn't do everything that you have in a full development language. It doesn't have that flexibility. I would also like more integrations in Power Automate. Because so many things are a premium with Power Automate, you cannot do everything. There are a bunch of integrations that you have to pay more to use. That's not very good.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"Low system overhead, setting retention policies, ease of use"
"Security tools: Being able to monitor data going in and coming off our endpoints. Seeing what it is and where it's going is awesome."
"It has quite a bit of flexibility in configuring backup sets."
"It had the ability to preseed by sending in a data drive and could restore by sending the user a data drive."
"Code42 Next-Gen DLP is scalable."
"Works in the background and users are able to perform restores."
"Risk factors can be adjusted for all intricate details."
"t has a very user friendly status bar with common errors and has logs built in to the console so we can review the issues or status of CrashPlan."
"I rate Microsoft Purview Data Loss Prevention's stability a ten out of ten."
"For Purview's natively integrated compliance across Azure, Dynamics 365, and Office 365, I would give it a 10 out of 10. It provides all the insights and information."
"There's a good amount of documentation in case you run into any problems."
"Because everything is on Microsoft and we use Azure, integration with the product is easier. That's the most important thing when you use many Microsoft products. It's easier to integrate everything in one place."
"We can use Microsoft Purview Data Loss Prevention to manage devices and site policies."
"The auto-labeling feature is definitely the most valuable feature. It goes in and labels the documents for you in different repositories. It covers the Outlook and Exchange repositories along with SharePoint and OneDrive. It is really helpful in those areas."
"Microsoft Purview Data Loss Prevention's responses are faster. Its installation is also reliable. The security score helps with the security part."
"The product can block the uploads to cloud services."
 

Cons

"You can't always filter out data that you'd like to."
"The application, written in Java, required far more system resources on a Client than other solutions."
"​Due to recent changes that effectively abandoned an entire segment of their user base, I no longer trust nor can recommend Code42 products."
"There doesn't seem to be any feature that is lacking."
"More security would be nice, I would love to be able to remotely brick a stolen laptop and it's hard disk drive (HDD)."
"I think one we can improve is the compression."
"Reporting could use an overhaul. It is very limited."
"Java, please get rid of Java."
"The scalability, in terms of the portal, could be more user-friendly. Sometimes I have faced difficulties in identifying the options."
"There is a lot of ambiguity when you are setting up labels, such as sensitive information labels. It is a little daunting at first if you don't have prior knowledge, and there is a little bit of a learning curve for setting up the labels. Some of the setup wizards could be more helpful from an AI perspective. They can streamline the setup through more AI technologies so that you don't have to jump through so many hoops and different menus and dropdowns. It would be useful to have a setup wizard that is more hands-off and engaging for setting up the information type labels. If you tell them this is what we're trying to protect, it should basically start to lead you down that path of best practices. Such a feature would be great."
"The support is poor."
"The solution should provide better integration with other systems."
"Technical support is awful."
"The AI advancements can improve the false positives."
"There is no AIP for Linux systems. That's a setback. Another thing it's lacking is libraries to work with Python. It has libraries for C# and C++, for example, but not for Python and, these days, Python is very useful."
"I would like Microsoft Purview Data Loss Prevention to be on the source code or SQL databases. It is difficult to do classification and labeling when you have a third-party source code or a third-party Oracle database. It is seamless when it comes to Microsoft documents but is not so with third-party source codes. Microsoft needs to work on it a little bit more."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It was expensive. It was more expensive than Eureka, and it was more expensive than Barracuda Backup, but what we got was a full team. They didn't come in and nickel and dime us. They provided the assistance we needed. They didn't say that they need to charge us for something or it is going to take another statement of work. It was all bundled into it... We pay for the software maintenance. It is probably 18% or 20% of the license fee for rev releases."
"It is 100% worth the cost to get and keep the support, especially when setting it up."
"It used to be a good solution for SOHO in particular as it had unlimited storage for a reasonable price. However, their pricing model has changed and they are now primarily targeting enterprise users."
"They were the best solution and surprisingly enough, the cheapest."
"The pricing is reasonable. It's my understanding that the cost is about $7 for unlimited storage in the cloud per server."
"The product has the best price-to-performance ratio."
"I am satisfied with the tool's pricing."
"It is a part of our Microsoft licensing. We pay for a yearly renewal. Its price is reasonable for the size of the organization we are. It is fairly competitive, and you get what you pay for. We have an E5 license, and a part of understanding the E5 license is to see what all you get with it. If you really look at it from that standpoint, you get a lot of value. You have Defender and all its security features in there as well. Their licensing is fairly flexible. They have different programs. We've seen ones where you could pay for up to three to five years in advance. There is also a monthly pay-as-you-go type of deal, but we're doing a yearly renewal and fixing the budget."
"Microsoft Purview Data Loss Prevention is part of a bundle and is not sold as a standalone product."
"It's a little bit pricey compared to competitors, but it's not too high."
"We are using the E3 license for Microsoft 365 with the E5 compliance license add-on."
"The pricing is reasonable."
