"Comprehensive Enterprise Information Archiving Solution"
What do you like best about Google Vault?

My overall experience with Google Vault has been positive. It has proven to be a reliable and effective solution for archiving and managing enterprise information. The robust features, user-friendly interface, and strong security measures make it a valuable asset for organizations seeking a comprehensive archiving solution. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Google Vault?

While the service is robust, the pricing structure may be a bit on the higher side for smaller businesses or organizations with budget constraints.

Although the interface is user-friendly, there might be a learning curve for administrators who are new to the system. More comprehensive training materials could be beneficial. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Comprehensive Data Management and eDiscovery Solution"
What do you like best about Google Vault?

Google Vault has become an indispensable asset for our organization's data management and compliance needs. Its seamless integration with G Suite makes archiving effortless, while its powerful search capabilities ensure we can locate specific information quickly. The secure and reliable environment provides peace of mind, and the cost-effectiveness of the solution makes it a top choice for eDiscovery. Highly recommended. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Google Vault?

While Google Vault offers an overall positive experience, the initial learning curve for those unfamiliar with eDiscovery tools can be a minor challenge. However, Google's support documentation and resources help overcome this. Aside from that, there are no significant dislikes, as the benefits and features outweigh any minor drawbacks.

"Great Archive Tool, Good Search Tool, Mediocre Export Tool"
What do you like best about Google Vault?

Google Vault makes archiving Gmail easy and managable. We use it to reliably archive all our email, chat and Google Drive. As a Google Workspace administistrator it easily integrates with our environment. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Google Vault?

Google Vault is an excellent archive but not a great search tool. It lacks some very basic features and functionality like deduplication. It is also challenging to export individual chat conversations and some documents. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Google Vault is a Critical Must-Have For Your Business"
What do you like best about Google Vault?

As a Google Admin, I've used Google Vault on many occasions. If your business (or an individual) needs to quickly find strings of emails based on a set of criteria - for example, searching for all emails sent to a specific person from a particular email address, etc. - or in case of any mediation or litigation issues, learning how to use Google Vault and ensuring that you can easily access it if ever needed is critical for the health of your organization. If you haven't upgraded your Google Workspace account to include this feature - make sure to double-check if you can access Vault, and if it is an upgrade (i.e. from a basic to a business account) feature, I would HIGHLY recommend adding it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Google Vault?

In addition to all of the several forms of data the Vault .zip files download, a full PDF download of the conversations and attachments would be helpful. I have to then use a paid third party service as a Chrome Extension to compress the documents into a easily read PDF file. This one improvement would be phenomenal.

It is easy to use when you know what parameters to set - this would be my one observation. If I haven't used Google Vault in a few months and I come back to it, I typically have to search a support document or chat with a Workplace tech to make sure the string I want to search is entered correctly. Otherwise - this is a very simple and easy-to-use tool. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
