BigID offers robust data classification with custom classifiers, leveraging AI for enhanced security. It connects to cloud and on-premises systems, managing both structured and unstructured data. Features include full and metadata scans, plus strong correlation and classification tools. Challenges include automation needs, data connection configurations, and catalog navigation without search-by-column. While powerful, BigID is expensive compared to competitors like McAfee, and lacks comprehensive security features, requiring enhancements in consent management and privacy assessments.
