Find out what your peers are saying about Microsoft, Collibra, Informatica and others in Data Governance."The product has helped us save both time and money."
"My favorite features are eDiscovery and insider risk management, because these are the major threats to an organization that can't be easily traced."
"Purview helped us automate and control our data without having to rely on people to manually tag documents with specific retention periods."
"Purview helps mitigate risk and allows us to govern the information being shared among apps and devices."
"Data authentication enables us to classify documents based on whether they should be restricted for internal consumption or permitted for external sharing."
"The data classification part of the solution is excellent, especially as it gives us an insight into our sensitive data within Microsoft 365."
"Microsoft Purview is extremely stable."
"The best part is that I can create classifications per my requirements. I use it to classify multiple platforms like AWS, GCP, Azure, and different file sharing systems."
"It is a very professional product. Scalability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten."
"I lose a little bit of that control when we're talking about third-party connectors. Compliance-wise, I would like to see more ability to audit from a user perspective, where I could extrapolate what the user was thinking or trying to do."
"Enhancing the tool's capability to connect to multiple sources would be valuable."
"Running eDiscovery once a day takes quite a long time because it has to fetch your data. I also want the eDiscovery results to be improved. At the same time, I would like to get a centralized page where I could see records management applied to my Office 365 tenant visualized instead of waiting for a custom script to run through the complete tenant."
"There are differences when looking at an incident in the M365 portal versus Purview, and the main one is the advanced hunting. In the M365 portal, you can write KQL queries and fetch data. If that was available in Purview, it would be very good."
"Some of the menu headings may not be easy to understand for some people."
"The current event-based retention management is very poor."
"We have had a lot of issues since we moved to Unified Support. There have been work gaps there, and we believe they fixed them, but we need to make sure that they are going to be sustainable. It is to be seen."
"he one thing it doesn't do is data quality."
"In today's time, to be competitive, the solution's price should be lowered."
