Find out what your peers are saying about Microsoft, Collibra, Informatica and others in Data Governance."The audit log has been a lifesaver for a lot of reasons. Historically, when using SaaS products, there were always questions about how the audit was going and whether we were sufficient out of the box. Purview has many capabilities available through centralized reporting that provide a view of a specific segment."
"The e-discovery search is useful."
"Purview helped us automate and control our data without having to rely on people to manually tag documents with specific retention periods."
"My favorite features are eDiscovery and insider risk management, because these are the major threats to an organization that can't be easily traced."
"The data lineage feature stands out. It tracks where the data comes from and any changes made."
"I think Purview does as good a job...I'll say that it is as stable as the data governance maturity that exists within an organization. It can't be more stable than that."
"It is pretty early, but the decision to go with this investment was largely driven by the simplification of our information security technology management stack. That is the primary objective. Once you simplify and you have a connected structure, it allows for faster adoption there. It also gives us additional capabilities as we go on using the technology that we are familiar with, and we do not have to depend on outside parties to come in and tell us how to do certain things."
"It has notable features for maximizing the value of your data. The data discovery and the data analytics parts are great both on-premises and on-cloud."
"It is a very professional product. Scalability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten."
"Privacy features should be integrated into the core product rather than offered as optional add-ons, as privacy is not a luxury but a fundamental requirement."
"Non-Microsoft use cases are not very high. It's limited for now."
"We have had some issues automating our document management with Power Apps. I haven't been super-disappointed with anything except for Power Apps, which kinda drives me nuts. I think it's because I am a coder who can do things properly, and I keep trying to do things there, but it's not working out the way. The security team is pretty quick. I'm kind of a thorn in their side. I always try to get around stuff. They haven't come to me for anything saying, "Hey, I can't find this information." They're pretty good. Maybe, there's a lack of documentation, but that doesn't seem to be an issue for our team."
"I would like to have complete video documentation for training."
"Enhancing the tool's capability to connect to multiple sources would be valuable."
"The overall cost of deploying this solution could be better. It seems that middle and small-sized organizations are not completely happy with deploying this solution in terms of the cost. It would be good if they concentrate on the cost part."
"he one thing it doesn't do is data quality."
"Data quality has been a highly requested feature among customers."
"In today's time, to be competitive, the solution's price should be lowered."
