Keepit vs. Microsoft Purview Data Loss Prevention

The ability to restore within minutes is beneficial and helps productivity; no longer spend hours restoring from tapes. They can show a new start to the interface and portal, and within minutes, they know how to navigate and restore if required. It is very user friendly and easy for understand and navigate.

I would highly recommend Microsoft Purview Data Loss Prevention for companies that are utilizing Microsoft technologies based on the strong integrations. If a company is using other technologies (e.g Google Workspace), then Microsoft Purview Data Loss Prevention would not be a good fit and would be difficult to implement/manage.

• Cross tenant restores, allows you to migrate mailboxes from one tenant to another.
• Being able to backup multiple tenants/platforms from a single interface is awesome.
• The setup and ongoing maintenance is great, articles on how to setup security and gain access to data in a secure way is also a great feature
• The interface is very intuitive and easy to navigate, it hides an awful lot of power

• It's a great product from an information protection perspective, as it can identify different types of data across tons of different locations.
• It's great at applying standard regulatory frameworks, like HIPAA, to management actions so you can work towards being as compliant as possible.
• The eDiscovery tools are very helpful when it comes to managing legal holds and discovery requests, as it's simple to freeze accounts or hold at points in time for discovery.

• Providing more information on an ongoing restore job. Once you begin a restore or a data import, it seems to be impossible to see which user account that job is tied to.
• Its job percentages seem to be drastically inaccurate. It will say a job is 76% complete even though it has only restored 484MB of 8GB - but this is just a little annoying and not a real problem.

• Advanced or specific policies have a high learning curve.
• We have to rely on our reseller partner to implement some of the policies that we were looking for.
• Microsoft is constantly trying to upsell the PureView suite and hides some features included in E5 Enterprise to try and upsell.

Keepit just works. No hassle, no need to check it all the time, no need to check up on storage. If they don't raise the price (too much), I don't see any reason to switch.

Such a simple solution to use. User friendly, intuitive, processes can be completed in minutes instead of hours with restoring from tape, and requesting the return of tapes from the off site location, thus saving many hours and cost of storage. Also gives the end user a better experience as files can be restored almost immediately.

Microsoft Purview Data Loss Prevention is super difficult.

Support helped us to set up SSO and MFA with our Azure AD Accounts. Once when the backup was failing, they could help us to investigate the reason and find a stale account that was preventing the backup. They are really concerned that the backup works and not only want to close the ticket like other support hotlines.

We setup this in a 2 hour call with the Keepit installation team, simple and easy

We previously used Veeam to backup data from O365 to local servers. We had other SaaS platforms we needed to include and move from local to cloud backups. While Veeam does have multiple cloud options but compared with Keepit it was overly complicated and less cost effective. Keepit was a no-brainer in terms of simplicity and having a single 360 dashboard.

Symantec or now? Brocom. Forcepoint, GPV. I'm trying to think of, there's a couple more. I can't think of the top of my head. I would say closer to the bottom then rather than the top. So because of the fact that yes, it integrates well. But in terms of the actual functionality of DLP, there are other requirements that they just don't have the features for yet.

• User productivity increase when the users didn't need to manually recreate data when it was lost. Estimation of past cases: 100,000 $ per year
• Company blackout on disasters: pricelessly :-)
• Admin cost reduction, no more tape changes and storage costs: 10,000 $ per year

• I think it's integral to everything, it has to be positive and the positivity has to be the ability to use Purview in a situation for an organization. For us as a provider, we're not sure if we need your services or we think we're doing this thing correctly. We also evaluate compliance team. So first thing that we may do is if we don't have a footprint in the organization and we don't know what their data parameter or their data flow capabilities are, if we don't think that they're controlling it confidently, we validate and verify. We may do a content search and that content search immediately will be the most revealing thing. They'll be like, "alright, so right here on this diagram, this and this area are the areas that you have protected that are capable of protecting CUI. How come your CUIs in all of these 18 other different areas in which you see as like scope creep happens because the enforcement mechanisms haven't been tested, validated or whatever, or haven't been effective." It allows us to do quick cleanup, quick discovery, and things like that for new onboarding clients.
