"OneTrust Cookie Compliance and Consent Module"
What do you like best about OneTrust Privacy Automation?

The OneTrust Cookie Compliance and Consent Module is of great value. We use it to manage all our global websites that require cookie compliance. It's easy to set up, customize and deploy. We are delighted with the product. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about OneTrust Privacy Automation?

We are currently implementing the TCF2.0 framework for one of our brands in the EU. It's a much more complicated configuration, and we are unsure what configurations we can change.

I think a OneTrust seminar dedicated to TCF2.0 would be beneficial. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Great tool for managing your cookies with some limitations"
What do you like best about OneTrust Privacy Automation?

OneTrust is a great and platform for discovering & managing the cookies on your website. It offers businesses & teams a relatively easy out of the box solution for Cookie Compliance. Depending on the implementation route, it requires little to no website development work which is perfect for small teams. The banners & geolocation rules are fully customizable to different organizations & there are a variety of opportunities to customize individual implementations. Additionally, OneTrust support has generally been quite good & responsive. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about OneTrust Privacy Automation?

Although OneTrust is generally a good solution, there are some limitations. It is not the most intuitive platform and a ‘simple’ task can easily take longer than expected. While there is a robust set of help pages, these can be difficult to navigate, and it can be hard to find answers & solutions. Finally, announced changes are sometimes slow to roll out or change release dates with little or no notice.

Another limitation we’ve encountered is with larger organizations that use OneTrust across a larger number of domains. Depending on set up, it can be easy for individuals or teams to accidentally update more than one site, which can cause problems. While this does come down to the organization & set-up, it is a consideration. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about OneTrust Privacy Automation?

I like how easy it is to set preferences by region. I also appreciate the labeling and ability to associate cookies with vendors for ongoing audits of cookie use. I also thought the training was comprehensive with the One Trust team. It gave me the confidence to maintain the work we started. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about OneTrust Privacy Automation?

I hope one day there will be a streamlined way to block cookies. That process is a little tedious. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Think Bog, Start Small, Scale fast"
What do you like best about OneTrust Privacy Automation?

Easy and fast in deployment. The AI part, CookiePedia , One Trust University and myOnetrust play important role to assist in deployment capability for implementation team. The support online also provide assistance online 24 hours and normally all the ticket get follow up and support. In the customize template for Assessment Automation were very helpful in getting the job done in such a big organization like our customer. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about OneTrust Privacy Automation?

Language Support for Thai Language as one of the language options but at least the platform support in some template and customize. The language is very important in getting into the Government Organization deployment.

The vendor risk management that if OneTrust would have the local team that could assist in follow up the request for domestic market. If customer would require this vendor assessment as part of the vendor compliance and selection . SLA of the assessment and the work need to be more reflect in the local market than the global outreach.

The maintenance that reflect the continuous development and the new feature introduce to the platform are quite frequency happen. Even if we did not experience the interrupt of the service as this normally happen of the office hours of the customer. The information about this update interruption would be very much appreciate if it would send only to admin and the email might also be the good option in inform this.

"OneTrust is crucial for a mature corporate privacy program"
What do you like best about OneTrust Privacy Automation?

I cannot imagine my work as a Data Protection Officer without OneTrust. The platform is designed as state-of-the-art, very user-friendly to navigate and configure. OneTrust is absolutely reliable in terms of operational continuity, as I don't remember a single instance of the platform going down for more than a moment or two. It is frequently updated and the information for the updates presented in a nice way. The customer support is unique - provided literally in minutes sometimes. The Help desk solution is like a huge library of questions and answers, but on top there is a dedicated MyOneTrust website/community where new ideas may be offered to the developers.

What do you dislike about OneTrust Privacy Automation?

Not available in my native language, which would be great for internal assessments where not all people are advanced English speakers. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Great cookie policy control tool"
What do you like best about OneTrust Privacy Automation?

The auto scan, and compliance portion of the tool is a winner. we use this mostly when creating websites which need to comply with legislation in EU countries which we are not familiar in. The sales support staff are brilliant. they are very happy to help with all the requests we have had. even silly questions, they treat you correctly. We have a direct contact who is happy to setup meetings to explain the same simple concepts we may have already gone over before. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about OneTrust Privacy Automation?

No mass upload of sites. so we need to add each website we manage, one at a time. Another is that the platform backend is not built for scale. If you are managing less than 5 sites this is probably for you. Off the bat, the customizability of the platform cookie notice is a bit limiting. you need a CSS fluent team member in order to really make the cookie notice look how you need.
