What do you like best about Fortra DLP (formerly Digital Guardian)?

The support team is able to take care of most needs without trying to figure out complicated settings and configurations and is really helpful in setting things up or changing settings and tuning out reports or findings. Quarterly calls or being able to regularly reach out to the account manager allows the opportunity to be able to learn and understand the interface. Many of the surface features you would use DG for are easy to pick up without being too in-depth in training. Most of the features are easy to also train and transfer to other colleagues without needing too much repeating or help afterward. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Fortra DLP (formerly Digital Guardian)?

Some of the menu items are too small and less intuitive or hidden to see. One of the small things that pause productivity for fast working is not being able to hit the enter button to begin the search of something you are looking for, rather, needing to use the mouse to click refresh. Minor considering all of its capabilities as a whole. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Fortra DLP (formerly Digital Guardian) solving and how is that benefiting you?

Restricting applications, watching data, and document upload/ egress. Being able to restrict certain activities with rules blocking, and just observe in other instances without needing to block so that you get an informational perspective with activities. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
