Forcepoint CASBMicrosoft Purview Information Protection
Likelihood to Recommend
I would not recommend it as I think the product needs better integration with other Forcepoint products and better technical support. In some cases, Forcepoint closes my tickets without an answer. On the other hand, integration is useless in some cases. A working OCR would be appreciated in the future, as well as a better DLP. The admin webpage had some problems, sometimes it didn't load correctly. And don't even try to use it on a mobile, it never works. I think the product is good, but it needs better integration (and the integration should work!!) and in my opinion, it's not a finished product. On a scale from 1 to 10, I would give it a 5.

I can see using this on prints that are highly confidential. But, for everyday files, it might be overkill

Usability
The platform is really good but needs a lot of customization and effort. Need to build an AI platform that will help in customizations.

The interface of both the softwares is complex, but Forcepoint is certainly more complicated. But once you get past that, it is quite smooth and offers a lot of amazing features. It is one of the best options for remote security, although I would love to see more features - like encryption. The one place where it truly lacks is customer service, and since it has such an intricate implementation procedure, this one carries a lot of weight and needs to be improved to make this software even more accessible.
