Find out what your peers are saying about Google, Commvault, Microsoft and others in eDiscovery."Search feature is valuable for our customers."
"Google Vault is a solution we can use for the data export of end-users."
"In my opinion, the search functionality is the best feature. With Google Vault, we can quickly search for any email within Gmail accounts. And then we can get further information, such as if you want the full header or want to know any extra details about the emails."
"It is a very stable solution...It is a very scalable solution."
"Data retention is very valuable to us."
"The most valuable feature of Google Vault is its reliability."
"Google Vault acts as a great method for retrieving files from Google Drive and Gmail."
"The most valuable features are automatic document and email retention."
"IBM StoredIQ Suite helps to address problems like data discovery, records management, compliance activities, storage optimization, and data migration initiatives."
"My personal opinion is that Google Vault could improve if they could have a similar version to Microsoft 365 where you can have an eDiscovery manager account. With this, you can separate a regular person from an organization and just transfer the specific files."
"One thing I've noticed is that it splits the data files into multiple parts, like the PFT files. For example, when there is a large data size of any account, the backup process splits it into many files. This can be confusing and not very efficient when trying to manage the backups."
"Searching could be improved. There's a lot of limitations when searching with Google Vault."
"So, when doing a search, perhaps in some instances when you use terms, the information is not very precise in the sense that I'm not getting what I'm looking for. And in some instances, the information, not all the time, but in some instances, it might not be accurate. For example, when doing a search, if you use too many terms, it might not return any results."
"eDiscovery could be improved with additional information and an easier way to retain it."
"Although it does a good job of searching through data and exporting it, I feel that Google Vault should have more export options available to the user. As a reseller, our customers demand a lot from their Google products, and exporting is one area where there's a lot of improvement needed."
"Google Vault lacks speed."
"The price of the solution could improve and the search could be easier."
"The product was born and designed to be used inside the IT department, but it would be improved by allowing end-users to search for info related to specific needs."
