We performed a comparison between GTB Technologies Inspector, McAfee ePolicy Orchestrator, and Symantec Data Loss Prevention based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out what your peers are saying about Microsoft, Forcepoint, Broadcom and others in Data Loss Prevention (DLP)."The classifications in place are very helpful in making policies for ensuring sensitive data can be contained."
"I am impressed with the tool's ease of deployment."
"The main thing that I like about GTB is that it has a single agent for DLP and data classification. You can use the same agent. In terms of licensing too, it has a single license. When it comes to data classification, it supports open-source document platforms such as ChainSoft and OpenOffice."
"They have a fingerprint feature that is very awesome. OCR is very awesome to have too."
"The product has a centralized console for everything."
"This solution helps classify what is confidential and what is not, allowing products to be installed at home if they do not contain confidential information."
"The most valuable feature is we can develop what we want. If we have an old or new requirement, they are able to support us to develop it all within one month."
"What I like the most is the ability to manage centrally, to manage the various devices, the platform, and the endpoint, all from one console."
"McAfee is helping us to clean all of the viruses from the machines, protecting our desktops from the latest threats."
"McAfee ePolicy Orchestrator has a built-in advanced pattern, which is very useful because it can detect any pattern."
"We implemented data transfer protection, which allows transfer in one direction only. Users can copy from the PC to the USB but not from the USB to the PC. That way, if someone is carrying a virus on a USB, it will not be transferred to the PC."
"If you set it up right, it can really manage a very complex environment which require fine tuning where there are a lot of exceptions. That's what it caters to. It can just do those specifics in those exceptional situations, which is good."
"The most valuable feature of the solution is the central management console, which is used for DLP, endpoint security, drive encryption, and application control."
"The initial setup is very easy."
"It is a scalable solution...I rate its scalability a nine out of ten."
"The dashboard, management section, and reporting are good."
"All of the features are really important, including DLP for the OCR and endpoint. It will be all of the combined features that will give you the strength to control the data. Every feature has its own uniqueness, different control and will help you to protect the data."
"The solution can easily scale."
"The Network Monitor component is the most advanced on the market. Combined with the other Network DLP components."
"We are able to contain our confidential data in our environment."
"The data matching features are the most valuable due to the easy policy setup and implementation."
"There's only one policy needed to implement for all channels."
"The dashboard, management section, and reporting are good."
"To stay competitive, they should expand to smartphones."
"The solution could improve by providing additional availability requirements."
"The product needs to improve its support so that users can just log in and create tickets as opposed to sending emails. Sending emails is difficult to track. It also needs to work on its analytics platform."
"The solution’s performance must be improved."
"The performance could be better."
"It would be great if they have information rights management (IRM) on the same agent."
"They have a roadmap for the Linux platform and Mac as well, and in the next quarter, they might have patch management also for Windows. However, they don't have that much for Linux and Mac. So, we need those things in Linux and Mac as well."
"There is a problem when it comes to agent communication and duplicate records, where the rebooting of a machine leads to the installation of a new agent and you get a lot of duplicate records that ultimately affect your compliance monitoring."
"The solution could improve the EDR component in many areas, such as the zero-day and persistent threats. The implementation is also complex for this feature."
"The impact of the agent on the endpoint's performance - the resources it takes. Additionally, the difficulties we experience with inheriting and breaking inheritance on the organization's structure breakdown for policy inheritance and then for rules inheritance. We are actually struggling with this."
"They have to do something to make the solution more resilient or recoverable from power failure events, which may include creating their own database."
"We need to consolidate multiple features into one console. It would be beneficial to have all the important features on a single platform."
"There are some issues we are having with updating our Windows server. So we need to contact support or access our support portal."
"Lacks a single plug-in for multiple uses."
"There needs to be support for Mac computers. Currently, McAfee does not work on iOS."
"We need to have agent auto-parsing."
"The Symantec DLP solution is very complex, and installation requires many components."
"We want a more proactive reporting structure."
"There is room for improvement in the remote control capabilities of the DLP solution."
"Agent configuration should be improved for easier interaction for users, particularly by allowing configuration changes to be done on a grid."
"There are some features that are not available which are required by every data loss prevention solution."
"Different departments should manage administration, reporting, normalization and incident management."
"We are finding delayed response if the macOS is updated. They need to make sure their solution is compatible."
