We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"The product has a centralized console for everything.""The classifications in place are very helpful in making policies for ensuring sensitive data can be contained.""They have a fingerprint feature that is very awesome. OCR is very awesome to have too.""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.""I am impressed with the tool's ease of deployment.""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."

"Users like the product because of its simplicity and the rate of detection.""The synchronize application detection policies have been very good.""The most valuable aspect of Symantec DLP is its broad coverage. Symantec DLP covers USB, Outlook email clients, and web traffic. If we install the endpoint DLP, we can cover multiple channels, including the clipboard and printer.""The features I like most about this solution is the endpoint modules because it gives us the protection we need.""DLP's most valuable feature is compliance.""One of the most valuable features is that you can check attachments.""The most valuable feature is file-level DLP.""It is a scalable solution...The solution's technical support was good."

Cons
"The solution’s performance must be improved.""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.""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.""To stay competitive, they should expand to smartphones.""The performance could be better.""The solution could improve by providing additional availability requirements.""It would be great if they have information rights management (IRM) on the same agent."

"There should be more documentation with Symantec Data Loss Prevention. We had trouble with the first few deployments.""Virtualization is not currently supported.""The product must improve its interface.""In a majority of cases, most of the companies are using DLP for endpoint sessions, where you have a user that might be communicating information outside of the company. However, they forget there are actual interfaces that can directly communicate with either the database or other files within the data center that uses end-to-end encryption. In those cases, you might need things like your DLP to be able to monitor and block some of that. The solution needs to catch information communicated through the data center on the server-side.""Symantec Data Loss Prevention's AI technology has certain shortcomings where improvements can be made.""They need to expand the channels they check.""I do have a problem with the database.""They could improve the predefined reports because they don't have much information. We would like detailed reports."

    Keeping sensitive corporate information safe and compliant has never been easy. But today, you’re faced with a totally new set of data protection challenges. Sensitive information is leaving the safety of your corporate network as more employees share files over consumer cloud storage services and access those files on their own mobile devices. The number of targeted cyber attacks continues to grow, as cybercriminals develop effective new methods for defeating traditional security measures and stealing corporate information. And as all of these factors converge, it becomes increasingly difficult to manage corporate information and protect it against loss and theft. 

    Symantec Data Loss Prevention (DLP) provides a comprehensive approach to information protection that embraces today’s cloud- and mobile-centered realities. With DLP, you can:

    • Discover where data is stored across all of your cloud, mobile, network, endpoint, and storage systems

    • Monitor how data is being used, whether your employees are on or off the network

    • Protect data from being leaked or stolen—no matter where it’s stored or how it’s used
