# Which OCR Software Maintains Compliance with Data Protection Regulations?

<p class="elv-tracking-normal elv-text-default elv-font-figtree elv-text-base elv-leading-base elv-font-normal" elv="true">Compliance claims are easy to make in this category, but the reviews that actually back them up tend to come from regulated industries testing the software against real requirements.</p><ul>
<li>
<a class="a a--md" elv="true" href="https://www.g2.com/products/docuware/reviews">DocuWare</a> (4.4 stars, 251 reviews) comes up most often on this specific point. Reviewers in government and regulated industries describe it as keeping sensitive documents secure enough that they can restrict who can access or alter them, and several mention it supporting information security management standards directly. Setup requires real upfront planning around folder structure and permissions, reviewers say skipping that step creates problems later.</li>
<li>
<a class="a a--md" elv="true" href="https://www.g2.com/products/ibm-datacap/reviews">IBM Datacap</a> (4.1 stars, 51 reviews) is heavily used in banking, insurance, and finance, 29 of its 51 reviewers work at companies with more than 1,000 employees, and its role-based redaction feature is built specifically to block sensitive data based on who's requesting it. That said, its overall satisfaction (82%) trails the category average, and reviewers describe IBM's support and licensing costs as real friction points.</li>
<li>
<a class="a a--md" elv="true" href="https://www.g2.com/products/laserfiche/reviews">Laserfiche</a> (4.7 stars, 1,248 reviews) generally markets itself around audit trails and data privacy standards, but one reviewer working in law enforcement was specific that its cloud offering doesn't currently support CJIS compliance, only the on-premises deployment does. Worth confirming directly if your compliance requirement is that specific.</li>

Your closing question points at something that trips up a lot of evaluations: compliance in this category is usually a property of the deployment, not the product. The same platform can meet a requirement on-premises and be scoped differently in the cloud, which is why the useful question to a vendor is which deployment model the certification covers rather than whether they hold it. Worth adding that the configuration matters too, which is why the upfront planning around folder structure and permissions described for DocuWare comes up so consistently.
