What do you like best about PrivacyEngine?

PrivacyEngine is a helpful resource as we are a small organisation (less than 20 staff), so we do not have consultants in-house. This platform and the customer support team in PrivacyEngine help us to fill in any gaps we might have to ensure we remain compliant with GDPR. It's helpful to have the platform to have a record of staff training also, that is simple for all staff to use. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about PrivacyEngine?

It probably has too much to offer for a small organisation such as ourselves, we are not utilising all the features, as it is not possible with our limited resources. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is PrivacyEngine solving and how is that benefiting you?

It's a helpful resource for answering specific queries, maintaining staff training and having access to some template GDPR documents. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Robbie Memery of PrivacyEngine

Thank you for your feedback. We understand that not all features may be applicable to smaller organizations, and we appreciate your input on this.

What do you like best about PrivacyEngine?

How much care has gone in to creating a tool that really meets business needs - keeping it as simple as possible and easy to use. There's also excellent customer support which bolsters the ease of implementation with it's large number of features. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about PrivacyEngine?

Relatively minor details with the user interface - such as having to click on the button, not anywhere on the screen to change focus. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is PrivacyEngine solving and how is that benefiting you?

First real help is with an excellent Data Protection Impact Assessment (DPIA) framework that really helps guide us to clear rational decisions.

The Record of Processing Activities framework is exactly as I would design for myself - logical straightforward.

The logs of IT Systems and Third Parties is more than just a log as it also enables us to manage compliance. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Claire Shaw of PrivacyEngine

We're glad to hear that PrivacyEngine has been beneficial for your Data Protection Impact Assessment and Record of Processing Activities. We will take your feedback on the user interface into account as we continue to improve our tool.

What do you like best about PrivacyEngine?

We have no dedicated in-house data protection knowledge as a small company of ~15 staff. PrivacyEngine has been a great company to work with to bridge this gap and reassure us that we comply and follow best practices. They have been great to have at the other end of an email or a call to answer any data protection queries and assist in resolving these. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about PrivacyEngine?

The platform is quite challenging to use without much data protection expertise. I feel it is more suited for in-house data protection experts in companies looking for technology to help manage & record their documentation. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is PrivacyEngine solving and how is that benefiting you?

PrivacyEngine allows us to operate as compliant as possible without investing resources in a full-time hire / expensive consultant. This greatly benefits us as a small company of ~1 5 staff. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Robbie Memery of PrivacyEngine

We are so pleased to have been such a great asset to your organisation. PrivacyEngine is designed to provide hassle-free, cost-effective data protection services to small businesses without sacrificing the quality or accuracy of the service. We are always looking for ways to improve our platform to make sure it meets the needs of our customers, so thank you for your feedback - we truly appreciate it!

What do you like best about PrivacyEngine?

It's a great place to store logs and details for all your company IT assets (even the ones that don't process PII). As well as tracking the assets, it's great that it allows us to anticipate risk with new platforms or features, as well as keep track of and action risks on existing systems. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about PrivacyEngine?

I can't think of anything I dislike right now. We've been for the platform for over two years and it's grown significantly in features during that time. They are always ahead of the curve with features. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is PrivacyEngine solving and how is that benefiting you?

Tracking company assets and data. Assessing risk. Tracking and fixing risks. Training our staff. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
