Automation has given us consistent analytics and improved quality of insights into user activity
One of the valuable features of Purview is the ability to create a legal hold on a user's account within the compliance portal. That's pretty useful when it comes to any litigation or if you want to redeem the content within a mailbox, OneDrive, or a generic public SharePoint site. If you want to retain the user's data until the case is resolved, you can use the legal hold feature. Also, it's important that Purview can connect to iOS, Mac, and Android devices. With smartphone involvement, so many applications can now be accessed through them and it is important to apply Purview across operating systems and platforms. Purview's natively integrated compliance across Azure Dynamics and Office 365 is also significant because within Microsoft 365 there are multiple applications. Irrespective of whether it's Dynamics or Azure, it's very important that it has native support. The data connectivity should be efficient enough to support and secure their own platform's data. In addition, with varying regulations in different industries and matters, Purview lets you create rules and conditions based on industry standards around the world. That is important. Our company is in pharmaceuticals and the rules and conditions are different from other industries. It is important to be able to keep track of all these regulations and have a tool that is flexible enough to create the regulatory rules and conditions we need. And when it comes to data loss protection, Purview has features that can recognize patterns and detect any sort of data loss, where the data is being transferred from its platform to a different one. The default settings that come with it are pretty nice for identifying data transfer or data loss across the platform. It also comes with a lot of training materials, with use cases and examples, to help educate users and make them familiar with the tool.

Comes with data leak protection features but technical support is too slow
We use the solution for endpoints.  The solution's most valuable feature is data leak protection.  Safetica ONE's technical support is too slow.  I have been using the product for six months.  I rate the product's stability a nine out of ten.  I rate Safetica ONE's scalability a five out of…

Cons

"It could cover more solutions and technologies."
"Some main features are limited in comparison to other solutions."
"All the security operations are better defined in Forcepoint, while in Microsoft Purview Data Loss Prevention, you will have to use a specific workflow and then an application to release blocked emails."
"The solution should provide better integration with other systems."
"Microsoft Purview Data Loss Prevention's licensing is expensive."
"The support is poor."
"The scalability, in terms of the portal, could be more user-friendly. Sometimes I have faced difficulties in identifying the options."
"The amount of false positives and the hash issue we had have brought down the score for me."
"ESET Safetica’s stability could be improved."
"Safetica One has every other thing that you need, so I cannot give Safetica NXT a higher mark because it does not have the full features of the enterprise solutions."
"The solution's most valuable feature is data leak protection."
"One area for improvement in Safetica is its firewall integration feature."
"The product needs to improve support."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Though I am not a specialist, the tool is quite expensive."
"The product has the best price-to-performance ratio."
"The pricing is reasonable."
"We are using the E3 license for Microsoft 365 with the E5 compliance license add-on."
"It is a part of our Microsoft licensing. We pay for a yearly renewal. Its price is reasonable for the size of the organization we are. It is fairly competitive, and you get what you pay for. We have an E5 license, and a part of understanding the E5 license is to see what all you get with it. If you really look at it from that standpoint, you get a lot of value. You have Defender and all its security features in there as well. Their licensing is fairly flexible. They have different programs. We've seen ones where you could pay for up to three to five years in advance. There is also a monthly pay-as-you-go type of deal, but we're doing a yearly renewal and fixing the budget."
"The solution’s pricing is reasonable."
"You get the solution in a bundle if you get the E5 suite."
"I am satisfied with the tool's pricing."
"The pricing for ESET Safetica is less as compared to other solutions. The customers have to pay only for the license."
"Customers need to pay for a yearly license per device."
"The licensing cost for this solution depends on the deal size and your use case. In our instance, it costs $35 per user per year. This is a reasonable price."
"Safetica ONE is expensive."
