Director of IT Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) 2/29/2024 "The fastest tool out there" 5/5 What do you like best about Nira? I've used a half dozen Google Drive file monitoring tools from Palo Alto Networks to Aperture, building custom tools internally based off the action log. None of them work nearly as fast as Nira. When you have hundreds of thousands of items, having a tool built for search is key. Nothing else on the market works like it. Their UI is easy to understand, it puts easy controls in the hands of your users too to help them self-manage their own data. Often when we have to use tools like Nira it's in an emergency, so having coherent, easy to understand UI and UX is crucial to keeping calm under pressure. A few months ago, my head of compliance was alerted to some google forms that had their results publicly shared. He asked if I could help find any other forms like that, and if there was any way to prevent it from happening again. On the same call, in less than 10 minutes we had found all the existing forms, remediated them, and created a new policy in nira to prevent any future user from making the same mistake. The CS group at Nira is excellent, they're easy to connect with, and even when they don't have a solution they're quick to give you as much help as they can. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about Nira? MAny of their competitors also do full document search, this isn't yet a feature Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is Nira solving and how is that benefiting you? Nira helps us keep the files we don't want shared locked down, as well as helping us maintain our 10 years of drive data. No easy task.

Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) 3/15/2024 "Best in the industry" 5/5 What do you like best about Nira? Do you like to make your life easier? Then get this tool, there's nothing more frustrating than runaway items being shared left and right by company employees who sometimes just don't know better. This is the perfect tool to get it all under control. The implementation/integration was so short and sweet, that it's like flipping a switch. Their customer support is top-notch, and the representatives are always following up to ensure customer success. It pretty much runs on its own, we basically use it daily 24/7 without having to think about it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about Nira? Nothing, I have not had any scenario that has made me dislike it in any way Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is Nira solving and how is that benefiting you? File security is the biggest one, we use Google Workspace and have some tight rules but it isn't enough to prevent certain sharing at times. We also heavily rely on it to turn off access for items our legal department has to share with third parties. The automation when it comes to both these major tasks is the biggest seller for me.

Independent IT Consultant Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) 1/30/2024 "Google Drive Access Control At Its Finest" 5/5 What do you like best about Nira? With Nira we have the ability to see who has access to any files in the environment and control that access. Gives us the ability to see a wholistic picture in a GUI. Not only does it provide the visablity but also provides us the ability to control those documents in mass or on an individual basis. The search functionaility to be able to find a document is better than anything that I have seen in a while. Also provides out of the box policies to see whats going on in the envorionment. The best example I can give of this that comes to mind is seeing what is publically shared and has a sensitive tag in the title of the document. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about Nira? I try to think of a dislike but when I hit one its not because of Nira but because of Google's lack of API support for something. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is Nira solving and how is that benefiting you? Nira is solving an issue that every Google Workspace Admin has and that is access control for documents that are not only in shared drives but also in My Drives. This product allows us to see whats going on with everything and change the access accordingly. It also assists in the offboarding of users by being able to transfer ownership of all documents or just give access to another user of those docs owned by the offboarded user. Also gives us the ability to search generically the name of that offboarded person to see if any personal accounts show up with access to documents in the environment to remove their access.

Security Engineer Computer & Network Security Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) 3/25/2024 "We are impressed with Nira's capabilities" 5/5 What do you like best about Nira? I am now able to align file access with the company's document retention policy effectively. This process is executed seamlessly in the background, managing thousands of files with precision. I extend my gratitude to the sales team and our success manager for their exceptional support. Engaging in discussions with these professionals is consistently a rewarding experience. Integration is also pretty much seamless. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about Nira? I recommend enhancing the documentation and simplifying the user interface and user experience. Furthermore, I posit that the utility of Nira could be significantly increased through the implementation of a feature that allows for the reverting of changes. However, I suppose that this enhancement may present considerable challenges to execute. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is Nira solving and how is that benefiting you? We are basically reorganising access to millions of files within our organisational Google Drive cloud. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Chief Security Officer Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) 1/29/2024 "Gain essential visibility of Google Drive file access and the ability to prune at scale" 4.5/5 What do you like best about Nira? The ability to gain detailed insights into the state of Google Drive file access permissions, which users have access to them, and what actions they may have taken is essential in a cloud-native environment where your document are one-click away from being public. You can then manage file access sprawl manually or using automations. Users can also log in to Nira to easily view/audit file access permissions on files they own. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about Nira? There are currently still some important limitations (currently due to limiations on the side of Google's API), such as the inability to modify permissions to files owned by deactivated users. Administrator roles are god-like, meaning you can't delegate admin access for a subset of documents/drives, or Nira functionality. As a result, due to the sensitivity of information, Nira is not something you can yet easily delegate within a team. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is Nira solving and how is that benefiting you? Auditing file access and pruning this on an ongoing (and automated) basis, allows us to significantly reduce the risk of unauthorised data access. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Nira makes identifying and troubleshooting security/permissioning gaps in our google workspace as easy as a few clicks. I've been able to manage multiple high-level down-boardings without complete account deletion of personnel who had access to tens of thousands of documents and folders. With Nira we were able to scale back their access with ease and full visibility/traceability. It also made the handling of any unforeseen issues, like other people unexpectedly losing access to vital files/folders, seamless to correct. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about Nira? Nothing of note that I'd say I dislike. Occassionally when actions error out it can be difficult to troubleshoot exactly why they failed, but usually it is due to hierarchical permissions in Google. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is Nira solving and how is that benefiting you? We used to be completely in the dark with how over-permissioned our company google drive was and Nira has completely changed that. We have full visibility now into with whom and how much have our files and foldrs been over-shared and can take quick action to rectify. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Co-founder Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) 2/5/2024 "Great tool for a very painful problem" 5/5 What do you like best about Nira? We have 498.000 files in Google Drive, it's a daunting task to keep track of everything that's been created and shared by our team. This file count only grows by the day alongside with my anxiety :) Since we started using Nira I feel a lot better, it gave us a very quick way to create an inventory of these files and make sure the right people have access to them. We integrated Nira into our onboarding/offboarding flows for employees and customer accounts and it allowed us to ensure that all the information has the right level of access and security. Love this product. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about Nira? I don't really dislike anything. It would be great if there was even more automation of workflows, but what we've already got is infinitely better than our previous solutions. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is Nira solving and how is that benefiting you? We have large amounts of files in Google Drive that create a large surface area for information to escape our network. Nira helps us keep track of that and ensure we are protecting our IP and data. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. Show More Validated ReviewerSource: Organic GV Glenn V. Enterprise (\> 1000 emp.) 1/24/2024 "The visibility is eye opening" 5/5 What do you like best about Nira? Nira provided visibility into our productivity platform that we haven't had in years and it was eye opening to see what risks were right under our nose. Nira's ability to also take immediate action with little to no end user impact meant one less thing to lose sleep about. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about Nira? Some features might not yet be available, but the customer ops and leadership team has been extremely transparent with their roadmap, and their willingness to re-prioritize based on customer needs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is Nira solving and how is that benefiting you? There was a lack of visibility in document exposure to external facing contacts, as well as document retention and Nira helped us identify those gaps and allowed us to take immediate action, as well as action moving forward.

Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) 1/30/2024 "Essential Insight into Google Permissions" 5/5 What do you like best about Nira? It is amazing how much I didn't know about the sharing habits of my users. Nira gives you immediate and essential insight into who has access to the companies assets on Google Drive. The most helpful part of Nira are the pre-built filters such as "Outside Access" for non-domain users and "Personal Access" for Gmail and Yahoo accounts, etc. It also does an incredibly accurate job of matching a company email to a personal email to see if employees are sharing docs to their personal accounts. This tool is indispensable for offboarding. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about Nira? The volume of options provided in the menu is a bit overwhelming. Even once I found something, I rarely could recreate it. They do provide the ability to save those searches but a "Basic" and "Advanced" menu might be more helpful. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is Nira solving and how is that benefiting you? Nira is helping us improve our DLP posture and ensure offboarding is done well.

Nira integrates seamlessly into your environment and within minutes, admins can gain important metrics and insights into their corporate documents. And the ability to take bulk actions on all documents within an organization to properly secure and protect them is a must have for any IT or Security professional. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about Nira? The UI is quite powerful, and as such there are a lot of actions and filters available. One area for improvement, especially for new customers might be to have some pre-built actions and workflows that admins can quickly select and run. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is Nira solving and how is that benefiting you? Nira allows IT admins to properly secure their Drive documents and gain visibility into the risk exposure file sharing, public links, and personal accounts. The ability to see how many files have been shared externally for how long and by whom is critical to securing company assets and potentially customer data. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
