Good value, easy to use, and easy to deploy
In terms of what can be improved, that is a question I think the end users can tell you better. I'm not the end-user for this system. However, I can say that it needs to be more scalable. I think they already have a good value proposition in terms of being a hybrid model, and the reporting is okay, as well. It could have better integration with other SIEMs, but this integration has to come from the SIEM side, not ObserveIT.

A stable solution that provides data protection and employee monitoring features in a single console
If a person wants to use a DLP product, they must know what data they want to protect and how to block, allow, and monitor data. We will not have any issues if the policies are correct and the user is authorized to perform the actions. Uninstalling is also pretty quick. Overall, I rate the solution an eight out of ten.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"Record videos that have a very small file size Management interface is very convenient and intuitive"
"Overall, it gives a consistent and really good return on investment."
"All my clients are very pleased with this product as it helps them to keep track of what partners and employees are doing on the servers."
"ObserveIT is small, easy to use, easy to deploy, and is not complicated, so it's more generally suited for only SMBs. It's a good value with a cheaper price."
"It resolved security issues of the organization by providing audit reports and records to our customers."
"Customer Service: The ObserveIT professional services team has been excellent, extremely engaged and genuinely concerned with our success."
"Meta data search Alert generation."
"The product provides data protection and employee monitoring features in a single console."
 

Cons

"OCR capability, support for Mainframe, Ticketing and Incident workflow."
"ObserveIT is not scalable and it's not for the medium to large corporations. It's for the smaller environments. For the larger corporations, we have other scalable solutions."
"I had some problems with an instance of ObserveIT in a Proof of Concept, when I installed ObserveIT with an SQL Express instance and the DB used all provisioned space."
"ObserveIT is not scalable and it's not for the medium to large corporations."
"Ticketing and issue management. Based on the new system, one needs to go through the sales people."
"The tool is still not providing records of tunnels established - we would like to see it in future versions."
"The user experience should be improved."
