## Strac Reviews
  ### 1. DLP that actually remediates, not just alerts

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Financial Services | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** April 29, 2026

**What do you like best about Strac?**

Most DLP tools we evaluated created noise but didn’t solve the problem. Strac stood out by actually taking action.
We use it across SaaS apps like Google Drive and Slack to detect sensitive data and automatically remediate — whether that’s redacting content, removing public links, or restricting access.

**What do you dislike about Strac?**

Everything we used with strac had no dislikes

  ### 2. Strac: Enhancing Data Security and Compliance in our Customer Support

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Thomas K. | Director - Global Tooling, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** August 05, 2024

**What do you like best about Strac?**

As a company that handles sensitive data within our customer support tool, ensuring the security and compliance of this information is one of our cornerstones. Our chat messages often contain sensitive customer data, necessitating a reliable solution to identify and remove such information promptly.
After evaluating several vendors for easy integration with our support tool, we chose Strac. 

Their platform stood out due to its easy integration process, responsive and supportive team, and advanced machine learning capabilities. Strac's sophisticated PII detection mechanism, support for identifying sensitive data in attachments, quick redaction times, and an extensive list of supported sensitive data elements have greatly enhanced our data security measures. Additionally, their swift support and responsiveness to feature requests are outstanding.

We are happy with Strac’s ability to customise features for us to suit our needs better.

We look forward to continued collaboration and ML model enhancements.

Strac has been a crucial addition to our data security toolkit, and we highly recommend their services.

  ### 3. The Most Comprehensive Data Discovery, DSPM and DLP solution for SaaS apps

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Insurance | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** August 08, 2024

**What do you like best about Strac?**

Collecting and processing sensitive personal data is an integral part of our business.  To service our customers, we use a significant number of 3rd party SaaS applications.  Customer data is processed in collaboration with SaaS apps like Google Workspace, Slack, Customer support, and more. We wanted a solution to continuously monitor real-time messages and unstructured documents (like PDF, images, screenshots, docs, spreadsheets, zip files, etc.) and reduce sensitive data from those sensitive messages after they were processed. Strac's unique Data Discovery and DLP capabilities with remediation capabilities like redaction, moving data to the vault, and easy-to-use dashboard made it easy for us to adopt Strac. They are very good at accurately identifying and redacting sensitive data with their machine learning and OCR models. And they have a solid process for addressing any false positives. Integration was easy as it was all SaaS and agentless. Strack customer support is very supportive.

**What do you dislike about Strac?**

"A few features are still being built. They are good at receiving feedback and prioritizing tasks. We've been very happy with them."

**What problems is Strac solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Redacting sensitive data after it was processed. Reduce the accumulation of unstructured sensitive data across 3rd party apps.

  ### 4. Strac supercharge our chat and email experience for customers

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Alex B. | Growth and Ops Director, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** April 25, 2024

**What do you like best about Strac?**

Our support team was looking for ways to offer a more robust omnichannel experience for customers without compliance risk. We get all kinds of sensitive information as we are in financial space - SSNs, card numbers, etc. When came across Strac, it was one of the easiest security tools I’ve seen. It was simple, easy to understand and use, and more importantly - it actually worked. Their machine learning models were accurate, did the right detection and even redaction when needed. The pricing is affordable and the customer service is readily available whenever we have a question. Implementation was a breeze and we were even able to set up SSO with Azure. 

I highly recommend Strac for your data discovery and DLP (Data Loss Prevention) needs.

**What do you dislike about Strac?**

I’ll definitely come back and post anything that is negative about them. But so far, it is 10/10 for us.

**What problems is Strac solving and how is that benefiting you?**

We are able to resolve customer queries via chat that previously we could only resolve over phone due to the exchange of PII/PCI

  ### 5. Comprehensive Data Discovery, DSPM and DLP for SaaS, Cloud and Gen AI

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Information Technology and Services | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** July 18, 2024

**What do you like best about Strac?**

As a senior security engineer, I need to ensure no sensitive data is floating across our SaaS apps - Google Workspace, Slack, GDrive, or sensitive data posting on Generative AI Apps like ChatGPT, Anthropic Claude, etc. Strac has been a great partner for us from both DSPM (Data Security Posture Management) and DLP (Data Loss Prevention). It continuously scans, discovers and automatically classifies sensitive data (both unstructured text and unstructured documents) with its machine learning/OCR models. The dashboard is easy-to-use with all the necessary findings and reporting. We get the necessary Slack alerts to know what is happening within our environment.

**What do you dislike about Strac?**

No Complaints so far. They are always on top of any issue that we report

**What problems is Strac solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Helps us ensure sensitive data is being detected, classified and redacted appropriately across SaaS applications

  ### 6. Needed a DLP for Compliance

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Information Technology and Services | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** May 02, 2024

**What do you like best about Strac?**

As part of NIST-CSF, we were required to have a DLP (Data Loss Prevention) software. We did a POC and compared Strac with other competitors like NetSkope. Strac was hands down a) very easy to setup b) once it was setup, we could see the actual findings and alerts for it, c) very responsive support - their engineering team actively listens to any feedback and responds to all issues. We leverage the major SaaS integrations and also their AI DLP solution which protects us from sharing sensitive data over ChatGPT, Google Gemini, Anthropic Claude, etc. Their dashboard and UX is pretty straightforward and gets our job done.

**What do you dislike about Strac?**

Its not so much what I dislike about Strac but Strac is service specfic.  Which worked for us but if you are looking for something does does a blanket wide coverage Strac isn't the right fit for you.

-edit- I stand correct Strac do have an agent DLP that runs on the device and can do DLP "blanket wide coverage".

**What problems is Strac solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Meet compliance requirements

  ### 7. Cutting-edge tech, secure, and incredible customer support

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** J.R. F. | Chief Executive Officer, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** January 18, 2024

**What do you like best about Strac?**

The title says it all. We deal with financial services customers and hence a lot of sensitive PII data is being interracted with. For compliance, cyber security, and regulation reasons, we wanted a true DLP (Data Leak Prevention) solution that would detect and redact any sensitive message or attachment. Accuracy and ease of use is also very important to us. There are lots of DLP tools out there on the market but no one is as accurate like Strac. Their machine learning model picks up any kind of attachment/image that may contain sensitive data. I was hesistatnt to sign up at first, yet after seeing how the software works, I was convinced it is the right tool to use for DLP. Set-up was easy and we had (and continue to have) hands-on support. I cannot say enough good things about the Strac team's customer support as they have shown tremeandous care and interest while assisting us and answering questions.

**What do you dislike about Strac?**

No Complaints as everything worked perfectly and as it should. Anytime we have a question, Strac answers immediately.

**What problems is Strac solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Strac is helping keep our data secure.

  ### 8. The tool we've been looking for 3 years

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Dima C. | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** October 31, 2023

**What do you like best about Strac?**

We realized the importance of keeping our customer details safe, especially given the personal data we manage in our support channel. To address this, we were on the hunt for a Data Loss Prevention (DLP) solution that could identify and mask sensitive information effectively. Strac truly delivers on this front. With their machine learning-driven technology, they accurately pinpoint and redact sensitive data. Setting up their system was straightforward, and their support team is both efficient and always ready to assist. Simply, Strac is the best solution if you are using Intercom.

**What do you dislike about Strac?**

It's tough to find any downsides with Strac. They've really stepped up and nailed our DLP needs. They've gone above and beyond, making sure our data stays safe and sound.

**What problems is Strac solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Any sensitive data masking and moving it to internal vault; 24/7 support; flexible variaty of sensitive data indicators and setup; machine vs human learning of what should be redacted and considered as GDPR, PII, PCI details.

  ### 9. A quick and user friendly solution for your sensitive data redaction needs!

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Real Estate | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** March 05, 2024

**What do you like best about Strac?**

We receive sensitive data in our customer support tool. Sensitive data is in our chat messages and also in audio recordings we receive from customers. For security and compliance reasons, we wanted a solution that could identify sensitive data and remove it from our customer support app.
Strac solved that problem for us with their highly accurate machine learning and OCR (Optical Character Recognition) software. After weeks of researching, Strac was the only solution I could find on the market that identifies sensitive data in audio recordings. It was literally a 15 min onboarding. We did a quick demo with them and saw instant value. Very easy to use, easy to integrate, and accurate.

**What do you dislike about Strac?**

They have been on top of all action items. Nothing to dislike so far.

**What problems is Strac solving and how is that benefiting you?**

We need our customers' financial data redacted specifically on phone, chat, and email tickets. Strac can do this very easily and their team was readily available to support us with setting up and using this feature.

  ### 10. Enhanced and modern DLP experience.

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** James C. | Sr. Director of Information Security and IT, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** October 31, 2023

**What do you like best about Strac?**

Strac SaaS DLP is a data loss prevention tool that has benefited our company's data security in a number of ways. Strac has helped us identify, protect, and redact customer's sensitive data such as PII and PHI (Health data) across different communication platforms. I particularly believe that the machine learning model is very robust in reducing false positives during detection and redaction within unstructured text and documents. The most important features are the end user, admin experience, and tech support far superior to what I've experienced before.

I would highly recommend Strac for any company looking to improve its data security posture.

**What do you dislike about Strac?**

They are constantly adding new features, it has been great to see their progress from the front-row seat. There is nothing much to dislike as they have exceeded our expectations.

**What problems is Strac solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Data discovery and security

  ### 11. Strac is a key part of our security and privacy posture

**Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Financial Services | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** February 28, 2024

**What do you like best about Strac?**

We use Strac for masking PII in our database before syncing it to non-production environments for development and testing. Their solution was easy to integrate into our automated workflows and has been a valuable and cost-effective part of our security and privacy posture. Strac has worked with us to implement some custom features to meet our requirments. Strac's support has also been available and responsive.

**What do you dislike about Strac?**

Strac lacks administrative user interfaces for some of the features we use and has been slow to implement these.

**What problems is Strac solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Strac enables us to keep PII restricted to secure production environments while allowing our developers to test against otherwise up-to-date application data.

  ### 12. Finally, I can sleep at night

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Dave K. | CTO & Cofounder, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** May 19, 2023

**What do you like best about Strac?**

Strac gives us peace of mind with its several DLP integrations. We leverage their Google Sheets to mask sensitive PII data like salary, employee names, job titles, etc. This allows us to test our app without sharing original data with our team. We also leverage their Google Drive integration to get findings of all sensitive files and who has access, with what permissions. It helps me to audit our security posture for Google Drive.

**What do you dislike about Strac?**

Hard to say anything bad about Strac since they really went above and beyond to meet our requirements. Their support is truly word class. Really looking forward to more features they are releasing.

**What problems is Strac solving and how is that benefiting you?**

We utilize data anonymization and Google Drive monitoring solutions to protect sensitive Personally Identifiable Information (PII). Strac enables us to eliminate the possibility of having sensitive data leaking into testing and staging. This enabled us to secure the customers' data, and replicate many tricky issues in staging as we can use the anonymized data for internal testing.

  ### 13. Strac accelerated our compliance and regulatory needs

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Aniket M. | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** October 09, 2023

**What do you like best about Strac?**

For compliance reasons, we needed to collect our supplier’s sensitive details like SSN, ITIN, and more. We leveraged Strac's Zero Data architecture via tokenization & proxy solution so that we don't have to worry about touching sensitive SSNs on our backend servers. We did not want the hassle of creating and managing our vault in our cloud and deal with controls, policies and compliance overhead. It reduced our SOC2 compliance scope, and not having to directly hold sensitive data really aligns with our philosophy. Offloading the bulk of our SOC2 and security responsibility to Strac has really enabled us to move faster. Without Strac we would not have been able to meet our compliance requirements so quickly. Plus it is not our core work we do. We are here to making our planet better with our mission. In addition to hardly any engineering effort, one of the largest benefits for me is peace of mind - significantly less opportunity for data breach, less oversight needed on access to the data since no one internally really has access to it, and a reliable security partner with an audited, proven track record of security and trust, and excellent customer service. I don’t have to worry about what I don’t see because I know Strac has it handled

**What do you dislike about Strac?**

Considering the outstanding support Strac provided and how seamlessly everything worked, it's difficult to pinpoint any shortcomings. They have done an exceptional job meeting our compliance requirements

**What do you dislike about Strac?**

Strac is really good at what they are doing. Nothing to dislike about them. Really appreciate their genuine customer care

**What problems is Strac solving and how is that benefiting you?**

We wanted to achieve PCI Compliance as we collect and deal with credit cards. We are also under the purview of European Data Localization. Both were hard requirements for our business and it is almost next to impossible to meet those requirements in a short amount of time, and also requires deep security and compliance expertise. Strac literally enabled us to be PCI Compliant and meet the Data Localization requirement in 2 business days. Their APIs just work out of the box. Straightforward to integrate and easy to use. Hardly any effort. Their support is outstanding. Highly recommend them

  ### 15. Strac is a game changer for SMBs

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Jason W. | Director of IT Services, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** August 11, 2023

**What do you like best about Strac?**

Having a system capable of identifying and redacting sensitive data provides us with notable benefits when dealing with data privacy and the mitigation of risks. Strac stands as a valuable asset for our organization as we strive to safeguard sensitive information and uphold an elevated standard of data security.

**What do you dislike about Strac?**

There isn't much to dislike. It is simple to implement and monitor without heavy user overhead.

**What problems is Strac solving and how is that benefiting you?**

We already have a good DLP program in place but I felt that we could be doing more. Strac is providing a cost-effective solution that gives me exactly what I wanted and as a result, delivers increased peace of mind.

  ### 16. Strac is exactly what we were looking for

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Banking | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** July 26, 2023

**What do you like best about Strac?**

We leverage Strac to protect all major SaaS apps like email, intercom, slack & also on our backend. On our Intercom customer support, anyone can send sensitive data to a business and a business is liable even if they did not ask for it. Strac solves that huge problem by automatically redacting sensitive data that is shared by our customers over Intercom with their unique machine learning technology. Similarly, we leveraged Strac's Zero Data architecture via tokenization & proxy APIs so that we don't have to worry about touching sensitive data and documents on our backend servers. Strac dramatically reduces security and SOC compliance risks for us while significantly improving security posture for Seis.
Strac's solutions were extremely easy to integrate (literally in few minutes) and scaled to meet our needs. Their support is awesome. Our engineering team is extremely happy with them.

**What do you dislike about Strac?**

They've met all our security and compliance requirements instantly. The rate at which they are adding features is impressive. Excited to see more features we need.

**What problems is Strac solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Storing sensitive information via tokenization and proxy APIs. Redacting sensitive information from slack, email and intercom.

  ### 17. Great tool for customer privacy protection

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Vamsi P. | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** June 01, 2023

**What do you like best about Strac?**

Strac protects our Zendesk instance and helps us comply with data privacy. It does a fantastic job of automatically detecting and redacting sensitive financial data we receive. We issue fuel cards to trucking companies and protecting all sensitive data we receive from our customers over Zendesk is tablestakes. Strac's approach was unique and extremely easy to integrate. Strac was great at allowing us to test for free within the pilot period and then moving forward with the contract. The overall process was very smooth.

**What do you dislike about Strac?**

They build new features quickly. Even if X feature did not exist, within a few days, the feature will be out. I have no complaints so far.

**What problems is Strac solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Customers give us sensitive data over Zendesk and Strac redacts PII data and makes our platform safe and secure to use.

  ### 18. Finally someone is doing things right!

**Reviewed by:** Nathan S. | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** April 13, 2023

**What do you like best about Strac?**

To protect our clients and ourselves, we needed a secure way to protect our communication channels for security and compliance reasons. We used Strac's Email Redaction solution, where Strac protects all our employee inboxes. The redaction experience is beautiful, easy, and secure. It catches all kinds of sensitive pdfs, jpegs, images, word docs, and even in email bodies. The integration was up and running in a few minutes. The service offered by Strac's team is the best I have seen, as we work with many SaaS providers.

We Highly recommend Strac to all businesses who want to protect their SaaS apps.

**What do you dislike about Strac?**

Nothing is wrong about this service. I'd like more people using this to protect my incoming emails as well.

**Reviewed by:** Jorge G. | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** September 26, 2023

**What do you like best about Strac?**

Securing our customers sensitive data is a top priority for us. Not only due compliance reasons but to earn our customer's trust. Strac’s APIs were easy to implement. Thanks to Strac’s tokenization API and Strac’s innovative proxy API we never have to touch sensitive data on our servers. The support is amazing. Strac is a no brainer choice to anyone handling sensitive data.

**Reviewed by:** Rajeev R. | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** June 02, 2023

**What do you like best about Strac?**

We deal with sensitive customer data like Identity Documents and inevitably it gets shared for right reasons across our SaaS apps (Gmail, Slack, Google Drive). Strac has done a fantastic job of identifying all the complex ID documents and removing from all those communication channels. It was very easy to setup and Strac's DLP (Data Loss Protection) help us comply with ISO 27001 as well. Really recommend these guys.

**What do you dislike about Strac?**

Well - if there is anything missing, Strac team is quick to develop and roll out the feature. We really love their fast turnaround and support.

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** James A. | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** June 08, 2023

**What do you like best about Strac?**

Occasionally, customers email us sensitive PII data like driver's licenses, SSNs, dates of birth, and more. We wanted a comprehensive Data Loss Prevention (DLP) solution that protects from these PII security risks. 

We love Strac because it does the job of identifying and redacting sensitive PII with no human intervention needed. The accuracy is exceptional, and Strac has many flexible configurations depending on the business need. Integration took less than an hour, and their support continues to be outstanding.

**What do you dislike about Strac?**

Hard to say anything negative about Strac as they have done an excellent job at meeting our DLP needs.

**What problems is Strac solving and how is that benefiting you?**

  ### 22. Loved Strac's Interceptor Solution

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Kevin H. | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** April 10, 2023

**What do you like best about Strac?**

We collect our customer’s sensitive personal data to offer financial tools. One of our products is 'Joint Cards' where we issue 2 cards for 1 joint account. We leverage Strac's tokenization & interceptor solution so that we don't have to worry touching sensitive SSNs and can leverage Strac's security expertise in building hundreds of security controls.

We could also detect identity fraud using Strac's unique tokenization solution which we are really happy with. That saved us a ton of financial losses and headaches. We are looking forward to integrating with various other Strac solutions deep into our tech stack.

**What do you dislike about Strac?**

It's been more challenging to sell the idea of why we should be using security solutions like Strac offers to management and stakeholders as the value is not typically seen right away - it's seen and measured when potential loss happens or there's been a data breach.

**What problems is Strac solving and how is that benefiting you?**

With Strac's interceptor solution, we're able to collect and utilize extremely sensitive data, like customer SSN's,  in a manner that's a) not in our data sets requiring controls, b) not requiring encryption on our side plus decryption and key management, and c) if we dont have access to it, I don't have to be concerned with other employees having unauthorized access to it.

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Justin K. | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** April 13, 2023

**What do you like best about Strac?**

We collect highly sensitive PII from our customers via HelloSign documents. We wanted to extract sensitive PII data and securely store it. Strac's APIs did the job and securely tokenized on their vault. Their team is highly knowledgeable as they built scalable and secure solutions for Amazon and AWS.

**What do you dislike about Strac?**

Every issue I've had with Strac, has been resolved through our shared slack channel.  They've been extremely helpful.

**What problems is Strac solving and how is that benefiting you?**

PII is scary.  Data that is not stored cannot be breached, and I'd rather not store it and utilize the strac team to help.

- It's been 100% helpful for us since the first day of using. I can't say anything bad about Strac as of right now.

**What problems is Strac solving and how is that benefiting you?**

We had the problem of securing sensitive documents. These are identity documents needed for KYC. We knew that securing PII/documents would require significant time and capital by building thousands of security controls and our precious engineer time.

Strac solved our problem of collecting documents in literally less than 15 minutes. Their easy to use secure APIs, pay-as-you-go pricing and world class support made it a no-brainer for us to go with Strac’s team

East to use, straightforward to integrate, and helpful and collaborative team. Has helped support our initial and more advanced use cases.

Initially, invoicing was very manual. But their team has addressed this and made invoices available online.

Redacting PII/PHI within our business application workflows, as well as watermarking of sensitive documents to provide generic disclaimers. Also allows tokenization in workflow for advanced use cases.

**What do you like best about Strac?**

You can select which specific sensitive data to redact and tokenizes

**What do you dislike about Strac?**

Initially, they did not have Google Authenticator or Okta verify option for MFA log in; however, the team is building features at lightspeed and they already have SSO integration which eliminates the entire set of 2FA credentials to manage

**What problems is Strac solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Strac is helping to detect, redact, and tokenize sensitive information from our communication channels like Slack and Zendesk. This helps in protecting the sensitive information in case there is a breach by hackers.

**Reviewed Date:** May 19, 2023

**What do you like best about Strac?**

Strac secures our Intercom instance by automatically detecting and redacting sensitive data like PCI and PII data. The integration was straightforward and got done in less than 10 minutes. More importantly, their software and machine learning to detect and redact is accurate. Also, the support has been outstanding.

**What do you dislike about Strac?**

Nothing much to not like as they have understood our requirements and not only met the expectations but exceeded them hem - integration, accuracy and support. Plus helping with some custom modifications.

**What problems is Strac solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Doing full sign ups for our product via chat. But we needed to maintain PCI compliance. And this really helped us quite a bit and is allowing us to build quickly.
