I like how quick discover scans are. The integrations with Proxy is also quite neat. There are a lot of pros to this product, and as the product grows it continues to get better. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Symantec Data Loss Prevention?

There isn't much to dislike. If i had to pick something it would be the custom Data Identifiers, if you are scripting you need to learn Symantec DLP's scripting language. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Best DLP software in market"
5/5
What do you like best about Symantec Data Loss Prevention?

When you implement Symantec DLP you can escalate from endpoint information security to an enterprise environment. You have detection server that add a strongest security and analysis of the information and the solution is always looking for the last technologies. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Symantec Data Loss Prevention?

I think the weakest link on Symantec DLP es the mobile security, the need to improve the mobile integration with iOS and Android, maybe incorporating a sandbox like security. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"One of the best security program"
4.5/5
What do you like best about Symantec Data Loss Prevention?

It’s fast and it comes in one pack of services. It would be good for an average user. Nothing complicated. It has an affordable price.Easy to use. There’s improved MDM features. It is trusted and established name. User interface is easy and simple. There is also 60-day free trial available which is great. It is safe and I think that is the most important part of this security program. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Symantec Data Loss Prevention?

It’s perfect for small and mid-size companies and I think it does a great job. I think it lacks better protection for anti-phishing. I’ve hear that there are some vulnerable side of this security program, but I personally have not encountered them and can’t say much about it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Great product with lots of features!"
4.5/5
What do you like best about Symantec Data Loss Prevention?

The management console is very easy to learn. Being able to configure agents and groups without interacting the the workstation is very convenient. It is not difficult to investigate alerts due to the high amount of information that is included along with them. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Symantec Data Loss Prevention?

The technical support could use a little bit of improvement. It is difficult to resolve conflicts with other monitoring software it the technical support team for Symantec DLP is on a completely different time zone. There seem to be a few limitations when is comes to tuning the alerts, specifically for social security numbers and other personally identifiable information.

What do you dislike about Symantec Data Loss Prevention?

Support can be a nightmare when you call in to get assistance trying to either find the account your referencing or the technical expertise is not enough at that specific level that you have to escalate the call to the next line of support which causes it to take longer to resolve the issue and get it back up and running like it was supposed to be running to start with Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
