"Efficient, competent, and practical advice – absolutely recommendable"
5/5
What do you like best about DataGuard?

Particularly positive about the collaboration with DataGuard is the clear and quick communication, which remains professional and friendly even during stressful phases. I especially appreciate the solution-oriented approach – instead of just pointing out problems, DataGuard always brings in concrete and practical recommendations. Through the competent and structured support, we were able to pass the audit smoothly and successfully. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about DataGuard?

Only in the customization of some templates and the response time during particularly intense phases do I still see some potential for improvement – overall, however, at a very high level. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Integrated System with Excellent Support"
4/5
What do you like best about DataGuard?

I appreciate the integrated solution from DataGuard, which makes a complex topic like ISMS easy to understand and accessible. The introductory videos and clear steps helped me gain a good overview. The support, especially from Mirko, was always reliable and helpful. I find the system sophisticated and suitable for beginners. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about DataGuard?

I think the offered packages after the initial certification must remain attractive. For example, after the setup, the total cost (payable to Dataguard) for software, internal audit, and occasional consulting/audit support should be around a third of what was paid in year 1. This ratio would feel consistent. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Great help for an inexperienced DPO"
4/5
What do you like best about DataGuard?

To me, the main value I got out of DataGuard was in the professional services and access to a data protection lawyer whom could ease my way into the role of DPO and becoming acquainted with data protection legislation.

As for the platform, it was good to have a central platform where everything data protection is supposed to go, with workflows around updating the documentation of processing activities, letting the organization take courses and fill in assessments, as well as a place to document incidents. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about DataGuard?

The platform can be a bit hard to navigate, especially when it comes to how it all fits together. It feels as if you fill in enough information into assessments and documentations to get an overview, but there isn't really that many features to e.g. trace where data comes from and where it goes in the end. Some of the courses could be a bit more polished, as the questions were often ambiguously worded so that even when you knew the answer, you still had to guess the intent behind the questions.

"Promising Compliance Platform with Room for UI Improvement"
4/5
What do you like best about DataGuard?

DataGuard provides a strong foundation for managing privacy and compliance, especially around GDPR. The support team is responsive and knowledgeable, and the documentation provided is clear. I’ve noticed improvements in the user interface recently, which shows the team is actively developing the platform — but it still needs further refinement to make daily use smoother and more intuitive. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about DataGuard?

Despite the progress, the interface still lacks flexibility in some areas and can feel clunky at times. Certain workflows require too many steps, and customization options are limited. It would also be helpful if pricing better reflected smaller business needs or tiered access depending on usage. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
