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.

Fits into heterogeneous environments and has automatic labeling capabilities
I like the whole value proposition of Microsoft Purview, particularly the DLP and integration with external solutions. Purview's natively integrated compliance across Azure, Dynamics 365, and Office 365 is important to us because it's all about compliance. Organizations have various compliance policies including the regulatory policies that are defined within the organization and those for a particular region. Therefore, it is important to our organization that Purview is built taking into account critical regulations from around the world. This solution enables our clients to show compliance in real time and has helped them in their meetings with compliance regulators. Purview Data Loss Prevention provides presentations to educate users on how best to handle sensitive data. When the user doesn't know whether a document should be classified under a certain label, Purview will provide suggestions or will auto-classify the particular document. It has automatic labeling capabilities. It's important that Purview provides data protection for iOS, Android, and data in other SaaS apps because our customers have heterogeneous environments. Purview perfectly fits into the heterogeneous space. Purview has reduced the number of solutions needed to interact with each other and has coexisted with them. Some customers have completely replaced their solutions with Purview, and others have Purview for classification labeling and a third-party solution for the DLP verdict. It has helped our clients to reduce the time to action on insider threats because it can be integrated.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"It had the ability to preseed by sending in a data drive and could restore by sending the user a data drive."
"It has quite a bit of flexibility in configuring backup sets."
"Works in the background and users are able to perform restores."
"The solution is very stable. Very rarely do we have any issues with it. We don't have to deal with bugs or glitches. It doesn't crash or freeze. We find it to be reliable."
"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."
"Backup and recovery have been great, but I love having the ability to keep the hybrid type build which they offer."
"Code42 Next-Gen DLP is scalable."
"There are a couple of things. One of them is that they have what they call Incydr. Their detection and response solution to the insider threat area is called Incydr. That gives visibility to the clients that have widely dispersed employee bases due to work from home, or that had a dispersed workforce predating any of the work from home requirements. Even though they might not be inside the organization physically, they're inside the organization. It allows us to get some visibility into what people are doing, what the context is, and how to control what might be the potential for intellectual property theft or file exposure."
"The product has improved compliance and confidence. We are aware of the data that is leaving our organization. It provides confidence in data management and information storage."
"We can use Microsoft Purview Data Loss Prevention to manage devices and site policies."
"It has helped our clients to reduce the time to action on insider threats because it can be integrated."
"The product is easy to configure."
"I rate Microsoft Purview Data Loss Prevention's stability a ten out of ten."
"One of the valuable features of Purview is the ability to create a legal hold on a user's account within the compliance portal. That's pretty useful when it comes to any litigation or if you want to redeem the content within a mailbox, OneDrive, or a generic public SharePoint site."
"There's a good amount of documentation in case you run into any problems."
"The most valuable features are identifying sensitive data and issuing alerts."
 

Cons

"What I think could be improved is how I get support."
"Java, please get rid of Java."
"I think one we can improve is the compression."
"​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."
"I would like to see more flexibility on privileges, perhaps create another kind of admin for regions. Also, I would like the ability to access logs without having to be on the actual device or a super-admin."
"The application, written in Java, required far more system resources on a Client than other solutions."
"You can't always filter out data that you'd like to."
"There is a need for improvements, particularly in ensuring that file-based recognition is more reliable and comprehensive."
"Microsoft Purview Data Loss Prevention's licensing is expensive."
"The solution should provide better integration with other systems."
"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."
"A site can have different containers where you store data. We have always wanted to apply compliance, labels, and policies at the container level, rather than to an outer shell or at the site level. That is something we have been looking forward to and I believe Microsoft is already planning something like that."
"The platform can be challenging to navigate and has the potential for improvement."
"Technical support is awful."
"It could cover more solutions and technologies."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The pricing is reasonable. It's my understanding that the cost is about $7 for unlimited storage in the cloud per server."
"They were the best solution and surprisingly enough, the cheapest."
"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."
"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 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."
"The product has the best price-to-performance ratio."
"Microsoft Purview Data Loss Prevention is part of a bundle and is not sold as a standalone product."
"We are using the E3 license for Microsoft 365 with the E5 compliance license add-on."
"I am satisfied with the tool's pricing."
"The pricing is reasonable."
"It's a little bit pricey compared to competitors, but it's not too high."
