Featured Review
Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"Before using it, we had a lot of unlabeled data, and the tool helped us quickly and accurately label a large number of documents.""We can restrict access or specify who can see sensitivity labels, which can be based on the classification level. We can encrypt restricted content and limit who can see that from an internal view, too, so Purview is a powerful tool.""The UI is user-friendly, and I have observed that it improves further each year.""It ensures that sensitive data is automatically safeguarded, even for email attachments, regardless of the user or device.""Incorporating data loss prevention capabilities built into the Microsoft platform to endpoints, such as Windows 10 and Windows 11 computers, can also help prevent data loss and is highly advantageous."

"The controller makes it easy to control everything from one platform. The management is easy.""It's easy to manage and support the user, our guests, and our customers if they have a problem."

More Unifi Pros →

Cons
"Our primary concern is third-party application visibility. Many people choose other DLP tools, as they can search the Office 365 suite and detect sensitive information across thousands of other apps. The product is weak compared to the competitors on the DLP front, but the classification is good; the tool needs a bit more maturation.""Microsoft Purview Information Protection can improve in terms of scan concurrency and scan processing time.""Microsoft can improve the affordability of Purview Information Protection by offering it at a lower cost.""There is potential for more integration in the use of AI.""There is room for improvement with the policy tips feature."

"There are issues with certain Apple devices.""It's stable, but it depends on the office and location."

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "The product is affordable, and our clients agree. Sensitivity labels come with the MIP license at an additional $2 a month per user, an excellent deal for auto-labeling capabilities."
  • "The price is determined by the enterprise licensing, either the E3 or E5 licensing or the EMS plus security and other feature licensing."

  • "There is no license. The solution is free."
