"There's a good amount of documentation in case you run into any problems.""We can use Microsoft Purview Data Loss Prevention to manage devices and site policies.""One of the valuable features of Purview is the ability to create a legal hold on a user's account within the compliance portal.

Cons
"The product fails to offer automatic classification capabilities to its users.""The user interface is messy and could be simplified.""McAfee Total Protection for Data Loss Prevention could improve by having artificial intelligence.""When this solution is used it requires a lot of administration because the users can have difficulties using it and require assistance.

More McAfee Total Protection for Data Loss Prevention Cons →

"There is no AIP for Linux systems. That's a setback. Another thing it's lacking is libraries to work with Python. It has libraries for C# and C++, for example, but not for Python and, these days, Python is very useful.""Technical support is awful.""The platform can be challenging to navigate and has the potential for improvement.""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.""They do not provide language options beyond the ones already available, so our language option is missing.""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 solution should provide better integration with other systems."
