[Which encryption software integrates transparently with enterprise productivity suites like Microsoft 365 and Google Workspace?](/discussions/which-encryption-software-integrates-transparently-with-enterprise-productivity-suites-like-microsoft-365-and-google-workspace)

We've been trying to find encryption software that integrates transparently with enterprise productivity suites like Microsoft 365 and Google Workspace platforms. We run a hybrid environment and every tool we've looked at so far handles one well and creates friction in the other. Here is what we're hoping to find in the [encryption software](https://www.g2.com/categories/encryption-software) category:

- Native integration with both Microsoft 365 and Google Workspace without separate portals or apps
- Encryption that applies automatically without requiring user action on every send or save
- Admin controls that work within existing IT governance and directory structures
- Minimal impact on collaboration features like sharing, commenting, and co-editing

A few platforms we thought are worth considering:

- [**Virtru Email Encryption**](https://www.g2.com/products/virtru-email-encryption/reviews) **:** Works directly inside Gmail and Outlook without disrupting existing workflows. Does the experience stay equally seamless when users collaborate across both environments?
- [**Microsoft BitLocker**](https://www.g2.com/products/microsoft-bitlocker/reviews) **:** Native to Windows and deeply embedded in Microsoft 365 with minimal overhead. Does it cover enough of the encryption surface for teams working heavily in Google Workspace too?
- [**Keeper Password Manager**](https://www.g2.com/products/keeper-password-manager/reviews) **:** Browser extension that works across both environments for credential and file security. How transparent is the experience for non-technical end users?
- [**Tresorit**](https://www.g2.com/products/tresorit/reviews) **:** Integrates into Outlook and Gmail for encrypted email and file workflows. Does collaboration stay as smooth as native OneDrive or Drive once it's in the workflow?

If you've rolled out encryption across a team using both Microsoft 365 and Google Workspace, how did you handle the integration gaps? Which tool created the least friction day to day?

For hybrid Microsoft 365 and Google Workspace environments, the least friction usually comes from encryption that works inside the tools employees already use rather than forcing a separate portal. I’d prioritize policy-based encryption, directory integration, admin controls, audit logs, and a consistent user experience across Gmail, Outlook, Drive, and OneDrive workflows.

[What is the top encryption software for avoiding performance impact on large file operations and transfers?](/discussions/what-is-the-top-encryption-software-for-avoiding-performance-impact-on-large-file-operations-and-transfers)

Hi G2 community! I've been looking for the top [encryption software](https://www.g2.com/categories/encryption-software) for avoiding performance impact on large file operations and transfers so we don't have to keep choosing between security and speed. We deal with large file transfers daily and ever since we tightened up our encryption requirements, the performance complaints from the team have been hard to ignore.

A few options from the encryption software category worth looking at:

1. [**Progress MOVEit**](https://www.g2.com/products/progress-moveit/reviews) **:** Built for high-volume automated transfer with consistent throughput even during data spikes. Does performance hold up when large files are moving at high frequency throughout the day?
2. [**Tresorit**](https://www.g2.com/products/tresorit/reviews) **:** Generally fast upload and download speeds, though syncing larger folders can slow down. How does it compare to unencrypted alternatives when dealing with large batches regularly?
3. [**Virtru Secure Share**](https://www.g2.com/products/virtru-secure-share/reviews) **:** Designed for frictionless secure sharing with a high satisfaction score. Does the encryption layer add noticeable latency as file sizes increase?
4. [**Microsoft BitLocker**](https://www.g2.com/products/microsoft-bitlocker/reviews) **:** Low overhead for local device-level encryption. Does it cover the full transfer security requirement for teams moving large files externally though?
5. [**FileVault**](https://www.g2.com/products/filevault/reviews) **:** Apple's native disk encryption with a similar low-overhead approach on Mac. Has anyone benchmarked transfer speeds on FileVault-encrypted devices at scale?

For those running large file operations daily, which platform gave you the best balance of strong encryption and consistent performance? Any specific configurations that made a difference?

For large file operations, I’d separate local encryption from transfer encryption. Native disk encryption often has minimal day-to-day performance impact, but it does not fully solve secure external transfer requirements on its own.
