Find out what your peers are saying about Microsoft, Collibra, Informatica and others in Data Governance."The e-discovery search is useful."
"The custom classifications are one of the most valuable features."
"MIP also provides strong information rights management settings, such as the ability to specify who has access to content and at what time."
"Microsoft Purview is extremely stable."
"The audit log has been a lifesaver for a lot of reasons. Historically, when using SaaS products, there were always questions about how the audit was going and whether we were sufficient out of the box. Purview has many capabilities available through centralized reporting that provide a view of a specific segment."
"Data segregation is the most valuable feature."
"The user interface is highly intuitive and user-friendly."
"The availability of pre-designed policies tailored to specific geolocations and customer requirements is a valuable feature."
"The new workflow engine is based on the web app rather than the Java-based approach."
"It is robust solution."
"One area for improvement is the detection of data types. This is really important. It has some of that functionality, but I consider it very limited. Maybe they can add some custom programming or machine learning could be particularly useful for the detection of the nature of the data."
"The overall cost of deploying this solution could be better. It seems that middle and small-sized organizations are not completely happy with deploying this solution in terms of the cost. It would be good if they concentrate on the cost part."
"There are some limitations with regard to the lineage of data from different parts of the system."
"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."
"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platform can ingest information from non-Microsoft data sources, it is slow to do so and the information may become outdated."
"Support should be improved in the form of good documentation and video lessons where a person can check things out. There is a community, but it takes a lot of time if we want to get an answer to a question."
"One drawback of Microsoft Purview, though it's beneficial and easy to use, is that when you start plugging in connectors for third-party sources when setting the solution up for data collection, it becomes a bit more tricky."
"As Microsoft Purview got a little more mature, the deployments got a little more complex, as we were kind of seeing that there are a lot of ways, like there were a hundred ways to do one thing or less."
"I would like to see harmonizing with some of the external third-party products so that it will all be within SAP."
"SAP should come up with specialized services as per their customer's requirements."
