We performed a comparison between Microsoft Purview and OneTrust DataGovernance based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Data Governance solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."Microsoft Purview is extremely stable."
"The cataloging tool is definitely the most valuable... It tells you about all the data you have in your tables, which helps people understand our data. We now know what data we have."
"Data segregation is the most valuable feature."
"The availability of pre-designed policies tailored to specific geolocations and customer requirements is a valuable feature."
"I use the tool in projects as a medium to provide information as reports to the stakeholders."
"It gives you the opportunity to know your data and apply policies around it. If those policies are flouted, you can always track what's happening. You have options such as alerting the person who is committing that action, or you can take automatic action by blocking, for example, an email that is been sent externally. It's very useful."
"Microsoft Purview is scalable."
"The ability to classify data quickly and effortlessly is arguably Microsoft Purview's most valuable feature."
"This product makes it easy to manage personal data."
"The tool gives us the ability to trace the path of an incident."
"One valuable aspect of the solution is its cloud-based nature. Users can just pay the fees and get started instantly."
"Non-Microsoft use cases are not very high. It's limited for now."
"The product needs improvement to edit the number of assets. It needs to be more inuitive as well."
"The technical support has room for improvement."
"There are some limitations with regard to the lineage of data from different parts of the system."
"Blueprints and landing zones like we have in Azure would be great to see in Purview. The solution could offer a baseline or blueprint of recommended settings for compliance regulations such as GDPR and ISO, which could be applied with a simple switch in the options."
"We've had a few issues with the scanner. It runs perfectly one day, and on another day, it will run the whole night. It's probably related to the rules. If I set some compliance rules and apply the rules to any column, I can't delete it. I have to disable it and reactivate it."
"Support should be improved in the form of good documentation and video lessons where a person can check things out. There is a community, but it takes a lot of time if we want to get an answer to a question."
"Two features are unsupported—custom insights and the DLP component—that would be beneficial to me as a consultant and for the customer in terms of security and monitoring. Regarding security, DLP would provide a more granular level of data masking. Custom insights would offer more detailed monitoring and alerts that can notify customers of failures or anything requiring urgent action."
"The tool is an amalgam. It's a collection of loosely integrated pieces and parts that don't work well together. There is room for improvement there. My team reached out to the support team, and their experience was not satisfactory."
"Deployment is a big issue."
"The integration with third-party products could be better."
